John Legend - Ordinary People

　　注意到John Legend，首先是他在VH1 Save the Music演唱會上，與Joss Stone精采合唱Tell Me Something Good；後來又在MTV台看見他與india.arie合唱Brown Skin，真是驚人。



　　這首歌令我感動的地方在於描寫愛情中某處瓶頸，如此深切動人又簡單，真是ordinary people都會遭遇到的困難般。愛情嘛！從來沒有誰的愛情比較特別，大多都是類似相仿的故事與情節。這大概是上帝賦予人類的另一種平等。



　　（另，MTV也很不錯。很恰到好處。）



Girl, I'm in love with you　女孩，我已愛上了你

But this ain't the honeymoon　但這可不如蜜月般甜蜜

We've passed the infatuation phase　我們已經過了迷戀期

We're right in the thick of love　我們正在熱戀之際

At times we get sick of love　但有時也厭倦愛情

It seems like we argue every day　搞得像我們每日都爭吵



I know I misbehaved　我知道我行為不當

And you made your mistakes　而你也有錯誤之處

And we've both still got room left to grow　我們都還有成長的空間

And though love sometimes hurts　雖然愛情有時傷人

I still put you first　我仍然以你為主

And we'll make this thing work　我們會讓這事運轉下去的

But I think we should take it slow　但我想我們該慢慢來



We're just ordinary people　我們只是普通人

We don't know which way to go　我們不知何去何從

Cause we're ordinary people　因為我們只是普通人

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow　慢慢來，這次我們慢慢來

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow　慢慢來，這次我們慢慢來



This ain't a movie, no　這不是電影

No fairytale conclusion y'all　也不像童話故事的結局

It gets more confusing every day　每日越來越混淆

Sometimes it's Heaven sent　有時彷彿天賜良緣

Then we head back to Hell again　但我們又如入地獄

We kiss, then we make up on the way　我們親吻，在旅途中修補戀情



I hang up, you call　我掛電話，你馬上回撥

We rise and we fall　時起時落

And we feel like just walking away　彷彿漸行漸遠

As our love advances　隨著我們的愛情前進

We take second chances　我們再給彼此機會

Though it's not a fantasy　雖然不是奇幻故事

I still want you to stay　我還是希望你能停留



We're just ordinary people　我們只是普通人

Take it slow, oh oh, this time we'll take it slow　慢慢來，這次我們慢慢來

Take it slow　慢慢來



Maybe we'll live and learn　也許我們會活著並且繼續學習

Maybe we'll crash and burn　也許我們會玉石俱焚
