The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the News

電影回到未來(Back to the Future)是許多6年級生難忘的青澀記憶,
雖然不知道是不是大家都很喜歡自己的少年時期
不過我倒是很懷念當時天真充滿遠大目標的自己
(其實也沒多偉大,就什麼都想學,這點至今沒變,只是比當時瞭解自己的能耐)

比鑽石更堅硬,比奶油更濃郁(小學生寫作練習的好題材)
這些直接的比喻(simile)
只為了告訴我們一件事--愛的力量有多神奇
讓老鷹變鴿子,壞人變好人
不需要有錢也不需要有名氣,
也不需要信用卡來搭上這愛的列車(80年代信用卡的地位跟現在不同)
最神奇的是你還會發現
其實地球是靠愛轉動的
(But you'll be glad, baby, when you've found
That's the power makes the world go round)


"The Power of Love"
The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling that's the power of love

Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girls dream
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night

Chorus 1 :
You don't need money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Its strong and its sudden and its cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
Thats the power of love
Thats the power of love

First time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
But you'll be glad baby when you've found
Thats the power makes the world go round

Chorus 2 :
And it don't take money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Its strong and its sudden it can be cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life

They say that all in love is fair
Yeah, but you don't care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Can you feel it ?
Hmmm

Chorus 3 :
It don't take money and it don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
You won't feel nothin till you feel
You feel the power, just the power of love
That's the power, that's the power of love
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Feel the power of love

比摩卡更香醇,比伏特加更烈
比太陽更刺眼,比路燈更難爬
比麥當勞更易胖,比台鐵更會誤點
是誰跟我說沒有愛情地球依然轉動的啊!
