Bon Jovi - This Ain't a Love Song

我以前很討厭聽搖滾，直到開始接觸英式搖滾，才讓我覺得這是一塊可以投注心力研究的寶藏。所以後來也慢慢可以接受一些美式搖滾，不過抒情搖滾不錯，但重金屬我還是敬謝不敏。上回同明淇去Ｋ歌場，他唱了Bon Jovi的Always，我才驚為天人，原來Bon Jovi有這麼棒的歌。我想明淇應該是很喜歡那種男人的深情嘶吼。一直跟明淇說我會把Always的歌詞翻譯出來，不過今週聽到Bon Jovi的另一首金曲This Ain’t a Love Song，我完全被這歌俘虜。那我就把這首歌歌詞翻譯出來，向遠在工研院工作的明淇致意。兄弟，超屌！



I should have seen it coming when the roses died　玫瑰凋零之際，我早該知曉

Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes　早該從你眼底看見夏季尾聲

I should have listened when you said good night　你說晚安之際，我早該意會

You really meant good bye　你其實是在道別



Baby ain't it funny　寶貝，你不覺得奇怪

how you never ever learn to fall　為何你從未跌跤

You're really on your knees　你以為高高在上

when you think you're standing tall　實際上你不過是屈膝乞求

But only fools are know-it-alls　縱使只有傻子自以為什麼都知道

and I've played that fool for you　但我卻為你扮演傻子



I cried and cried every night　我每夜都在哭泣

There were nights that I died for you baby　每夜都為你死去

I tried and I tried to deny it that　我一次又一次否認

your love drove me crazy baby　你的愛已讓我失心瘋



If the love that I got for you is gone　如果我對你的愛已然消逝

If the river I've cried ain't that long　如果我為你所哭的淚河還嫌太短

Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong　那我便是大錯特錯

This ain't a love song　而這也不是一首情歌



Baby I thought you and me would　我原以為我和你

Stand the test of time　足以抵擋時間的試煉

Like we got away with the perfect crime　像是我們背負重罪而逃離

But we were just a legend in my mind　但我們的故事祇是我心中的幻想

I guess that I was blind　我想我真的很瞎



Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade　你還記得舞會中的翩翩起舞

The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade　小丑臉上掛著永不會消逝的笑容

You and I were the renegades　你和我都是叛徒

some things never change　有些事也永遠不會改變



It made me so mad　這簡直令我瘋狂

'cause I wanted it bad for us baby　我是多想要我們在一起

And now it's so sad that whatever we had　現在憶及過往一切

Ain't worth saving oh oh oh　竟然不值得留存，多麼悲傷



If the love that I've got for you is gone　若我對你的愛已然消逝

If the river I've cried ain't that long　若我哭的淚河還嫌不夠長

Then I'm wrong yes I'm wrong　那我便是大錯特錯

This ain't a love song　這也不是一首情歌



If the pain that I'm feeling so strong　如果我感受到的痛楚如此強壯

Is the reason that I'm holding on　是維繫我支持下去的主因

Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong　那我便是大錯特錯

This ain't a love song　這也不是首情歌



I cried and I cried every night　我每夜都在哭泣

There were nights that I died for you baby　甚至願意為你死去

I tried and I tried to deny it that　我一次又一次否認

Your love drove me crazy　你的愛已讓我失心瘋



If the love that I got for you is gone　若我對你的愛已然消逝

If the river I cried ain't that long　若我哭泣的淚河還嫌太短

Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong　是啊都是我大錯特錯

This ain't a love song　而這也不是一首情歌



Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong　是啊都是我大錯特錯

This ain't a love song　這不是一首情歌
