Love Is Just a Four-Letter Word歌词完整版
Love is just a four letter word - Joan Baez
Seems like only yesterday
一切恍如昨日
I left my mind behind
我将心事放一旁
Down in the Gypsy Cafe
在吉普赛咖啡馆
With a friend of a friend of mine
跟朋友的朋友厮混
She sat with a baby heavy on her knee
孩子沉沉地压在她膝上
Yet spoke of life most free from slavery
她嘴里却述说着那些自由自在的日子
With eyes that showed no trace of misery
眼中没有一丝悲戚
A phrase in connection first with she I heard
说起自己,她提及的第一句话是
That love is just a four-letter word
爱不过是一个词汇而已
Outside a rambling store-front window
漫步大街上,商店的橱窗前
Cats meowed to the break of day
猫儿喵喵地叫着,迎接黎明
Me I kept my mouth shut
我闭上嘴
To you I had no words to say
我对你已无话可说
My experience was limited and underfed
我涉世未深,经验不足
You were talking while I hid
你在跟你孩子的父亲说话
To the one who was the father of your kid
我躲开回避
You probably didn't think I did but I heard
也许你以为我没听见,但我听见你说
You say that love is just a four-letter word
爱不过是一个词汇而已
I said goodbye unnoticed
我挥手告别,却无人在意
Pushed towards things in my own games
在我自己的游戏中,努力争取
Drifting in and out of lifetimes
匆匆忙忙度过一生
Unmentionable by name
却无人提及我姓名
Searching for my double looking for
寻找世间另一个我
Complete evaporation to the core
却消失得无影无踪
Though I tried and failed at finding any door
尽管我寻寻觅觅,总以失败告终
I must have thought that there was nothing more
我想,真是再荒唐不过
Absurd than that love is just a four-letter word
爱不过是一个词汇而已
Though I never knew just what you meant
虽然我无法理解
When you were speaking to your man
你为何要把这个词汇说给他听
I can only think in terms of me
我只能联想到自己的亲身经历
And now I understand
现在,我明白了
After waking enough times to think I see
清醒之后,我仔细思索,终于明白
The Holy Kiss that's supposed to last eternity
圣洁的吻本应永恒
Blow up in smoke its destiny
但命运却让它如烟一般消散
Falls on strangers travels free
与陌生人一起四处游荡
Yes I know now traps are only set by me
是的,只有我设下了陷阱
And I do not really need to be
我已十分确定
Assured that love is just a four-letter word
爱不过是一个词汇而已
Strange it is to be beside you many years the tables turned
与你相伴数年,现在情势已翻转,真是奇怪
You'd probably not believe me if told you all I've learned
如果我告诉你我的经验,也许你不会相信我
And it is very very weird indeed
听到永恒这个词
To hear words like "forever" plead
感觉确实无比怪异
So ships run through my mind I cannot cheat
我的思绪纷乱,我撒不了谎
It's like looking in a teacher's face complete
在你面前,我就像个懵懂的学生
I can say nothing to you but repeat what I heard
我没有什么可说,只能对你重复我听到的话
That love is just a four-letter word
爱不过是一个词汇而已
