Early in the morning
I put breakfast at your table
And make sure that your coffee
Has its sugar and cream
Your eggs are over easy注
Your toast[烤面包] done lightly
All that’s missing is your morning kiss
That used to greet me
Now you say the juice is sour
It used to be so sweet
And I can’t help but to wonder
If you’re talking about me
We don’t talk the way we used to talk
It’s hurting so deep
I’ve got my pride, I will not cry
But it’s making me weak
每天清晨
我为你准备早餐
确保你的咖啡
加了糖和奶油
鸡蛋煎了双面
面包刚好烤热
唯独缺了你的早安吻
过去你总会这样吻我
现在你说果汁太酸
过去它如此甘甜
我忍不住怀疑
你在指桑骂槐
我们不像以前那样谈心
这种伤害痛彻心扉
我有尊严,不会哭泣
但这让我渐渐衰弱
*I’m not your superwoman
I’m not the kind of girl
That you can let down
And think that everything’s okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me*
*我不是你的女超人
我不是那种女孩
任你打击
依然认为一切没问题
宝贝,我只是凡人
这个女孩需要的不仅是
代表你爱我的偶尔拥抱*
I fought my way through the rush hour
Trying to make it home just for you
I want to make sure that your dinner
Will be waiting for you
But when you get there
You just tell me you’re not hungry at all
You say you’d rather read the paper
And you don’t want to talk
You’d like to think that I’m just crazy
When I say that you’ve changed
I’m convinced I know the problem
You don’t love me the same
You’re just going through[排练] the motions
And you’re not being fair
I’ve got my pride, I will not cry
Still I can’t help but care
我在高峰时段奋力穿梭
只想为你尽早回家
设法保证你到家之前
晚餐已经就绪
但是你回来以后
对我说你一点都不饿
你宁愿看看报纸
也不想交谈
我说你变了
你只觉得我疯了
我知道问题所在
你不像以前那样爱我
只是装装样子
你不公平
我有尊严,不会哭泣
然而我依然在意
Repeat*重复*
Oh baby
Oh look into the corners of your mind
I’ll always be there for you
Through good and bad times
But I can’t be that superwoman
That you want me to be
I give my love, everlasting[永久的] love
If you return love to me
噢,宝贝
扪心自问
我永远为你守候
历经欢乐与痛苦
但我无法成为
你想要的女超人
我付出爱,永恒的爱
只要你同样以爱回报
Repeat* 重复*
If you feel it in your heart
And you understand me
Stop right where you are
And everybody sing along with me
I’m the kind of girl
That can treat you so sweet
But you gotta realize
That you’ve gotta be sweeter to me
I need love
I need trust
Your love
如果你深有同感
明白我的感受
在此停下来
大家随我歌唱
我是那种女孩
可以温柔待人
但你要明白
你必须对我更好
我需要爱
我需要信任
你的爱
Repeat* 重复*
注:“over easy”指的是煎双面的鸡蛋,其中一面煎得嫩嫩的。
歌的故事
曾经读过一篇文章说女孩似猫,时而任性,时而慵懒,撒娇打滚只为得到关注与抚摸;而每一次伤心都会牢牢记住,因为看似甜美的她有着敏感的自尊。一首老歌,却百听不厌,“澳洲偶像”出身的Paulini完美诠释了恋爱中的女儿心。或许我们缺少的不是邂逅的缘分,而是相守的勇气,是平凡生活中细心的体贴——请珍惜爱情!
