Love Is Just Four Letter Word - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)[00:00:00]
//[00:00:06]
Seems like only yesterday[00:00:06]
一切恍如昨日[00:00:08]
I left my mind behind[00:00:08]
我将心事放一旁[00:00:12]
Down in the Gypsy Cafe[00:00:12]
在吉普赛咖啡馆[00:00:14]
With a friend of a friend of mine[00:00:14]
跟朋友的朋友厮混[00:00:17]
She sat with a baby heavy on her knee[00:00:17]
孩子沉沉地压在她膝上[00:00:23]
Yet spoke of life most free from slavery[00:00:23]
她嘴里却述说着那些自由自在的日子[00:00:28]
With eyes that showed no trace of misery[00:00:28]
眼中没有一丝悲戚[00:00:34]
A phrase in connection first with she I heard[00:00:34]
说起自己,她提及的第一句话是[00:00:43]
That love is just a four-letter word[00:00:43]
爱不过是一个词汇而已[00:00:52]
Outside a rambling store-front window[00:00:52]
漫步大街上,商店的橱窗前[00:00:55]
Cats meowed to the break of day[00:00:55]
猫儿喵喵地叫着,迎接黎明[00:00:58]
Me I kept my mouth shut[00:00:58]
我闭上嘴[00:01:01]
To you I had no words to say[00:01:01]
我对你已无话可说[00:01:04]
My experience was limited and underfed[00:01:04]
我涉世未深,经验不足[00:01:10]
You were talking while I hid[00:01:10]
你在跟你孩子的父亲说话[00:01:15]
To the one who was the father of your kid[00:01:15]
我躲开回避[00:01:21]
You probably didn't think I did but I heard[00:01:21]
也许你以为我没听见,但我听见你说[00:01:30]
You say that love is just a four-letter word[00:01:30]
爱不过是一个词汇而已[00:01:39]
I said goodbye unnoticed[00:01:39]
我挥手告别,却无人在意[00:01:42]
Pushed towards things in my own games[00:01:42]
在我自己的游戏中,努力争取[00:01:45]
Drifting in and out of lifetimes[00:01:45]
匆匆忙忙度过一生[00:01:48]
Unmentionable by name[00:01:48]
却无人提及我姓名[00:01:52]
Searching for my double looking for[00:01:52]
寻找世间另一个我[00:01:57]
Complete evaporation to the core[00:01:57]
却消失得无影无踪[00:02:03]
Though I tried and failed at finding any door[00:02:03]
尽管我寻寻觅觅,总以失败告终[00:02:09]
I must have thought that there was nothing more[00:02:09]
我想,真是再荒唐不过[00:02:14]
Absurd than that love is just a four-letter word[00:02:14]
爱不过是一个词汇而已[00:02:27]
Though I never knew just what you meant[00:02:27]
虽然我无法理解[00:02:30]
When you were speaking to your man[00:02:30]
你为何要把这个词汇说给他听[00:02:33]
I can only think in terms of me[00:02:33]
我只能联想到自己的亲身经历[00:02:36]
And now I understand[00:02:36]
现在,我明白了[00:02:39]
After waking enough times to think I see[00:02:39]
清醒之后,我仔细思索,终于明白[00:02:44]
The Holy Kiss that's supposed to last eternity[00:02:44]
圣洁的吻本应永恒[00:02:51]
Blow up in smoke its destiny[00:02:51]
但命运却让它如烟一般消散[00:02:56]
Falls on strangers travels free[00:02:56]
与陌生人一起四处游荡[00:03:02]
Yes I know now traps are only set by me[00:03:02]
是的,只有我设下了陷阱[00:03:08]
And I do not really need to be[00:03:08]
我已十分确定[00:03:13]
Assured that love is just a four-letter word[00:03:13]
爱不过是一个词汇而已[00:03:26]
Strange it is to be beside you many years the tables turned[00:03:26]
与你相伴数年,现在情势已翻转,真是奇怪[00:03:32]
You'd probably not believe me if told you all I've learned[00:03:32]
如果我告诉你我的经验,也许你不会相信我[00:03:38]
And it is very very weird indeed[00:03:38]
听到永恒这个词[00:03:44]
To hear words like "forever" plead[00:03:44]
感觉确实无比怪异[00:03:50]
So ships run through my mind I cannot cheat[00:03:50]
我的思绪纷乱,我撒不了谎[00:03:56]
It's like looking in a teacher's face complete[00:03:56]
在你面前,我就像个懵懂的学生[00:04:02]
I can say nothing to you but repeat what I heard[00:04:02]
我没有什么可说,只能对你重复我听到的话[00:04:10]
That love is just a four-letter word[00:04:10]
爱不过是一个词汇而已[00:04:15]
