亲爱的朋友们,你们还好吗?欢迎来到《听歌学英语》,我是你们的老朋友Canace。你还记得我吗?"Fools Like Me"来自于Lisa Loeb。大多数乐迷接触到这位来自德州达拉斯的女创作歌手,都是从她于1993年为电影《四个毕业生》所创作的清新主题曲"Stay"开始的,而此曲也一鸣惊人的蝉联全美流行榜3周冠军,使得她成为第一个拥有全美冠军单曲的无约艺人。随后发行的首张专辑"Tails"以结合清新的民谣流行曲风与精练的抒情叙事手法广受乐迷喜爱,销售突破金唱片,更勇夺全英音乐奖最佳国际新进艺人奖以及获得葛莱美奖最佳流行重唱组合的提名。"Fools Like Me"像我一样的傻瓜,为何而傻呢?如果说爱情中的人都是盲目的,都是傻傻的,那么这首歌的感觉有点儿像初恋,歌词说爱情为傻瓜而存在,你觉得是这样吗?Fool Like Me"同样是一首小清新的歌曲,一起来欣赏吧!
Everybody go
The party's over
I want to be alone in my head
In my bed tonight
You never show
You must really love her
You think I don't know
But I do, yeah it's true
I think over is over
I'm right back where I started
(when it comes to wanting you)
I can't have what I wanted
But I did, I can
I was, I am
Only human, living, dying
Just like any fool who ever breathed
If love is blind
If love's a drug
It always is
It always was and
Love was surely made for fools like me
I know where I'm going
I'm tripping I'm sliding around
That's ok
At least I'm excited
It wasn't how I planned it (wasn't how I planned it
Feet are where I landed
At least I understand it now)
My feet are where I landed(feet are staying on the ground)
Maybe it's the sanest thing
Or just the sweetest kind of dream
But love was surely made for fools
(Love was surely made for fools)
Love was surely made for fools
(Love was surely made for fools)
Love was surely made for fools like me
If love is blind If love's a drug, it always is, it always was.
