When a Woman Loves a Man - Abbey Lincoln (艾比·林肯)

Love to a man is just a thing apart

爱，对一个男人来说，只是身外之物

To take or leave according to his whim

他随心所欲地选择爱上或离开一个人

Love to a woman means her very heart

爱，对女人来说，是她的全副身心

She only wants to live her life

她只想安守本分地生活着

Maybe he's not much just another man

也许他不是她的意中人，他只是一个过客

Doing what he can

做着力所能及的事情

But what does she care

但她又对何事如此上心呢

When a woman loves a man

She'll just string along

她会如影随形

All through thick and thin

克服一切艰难险阻

Till his ship comes in

直到他的船停靠在岸上

It's always that way

总会是那样

When a woman loves a man

She'll be the first one to praise him

她会是第一个毫不吝惜赞美之词的人

When he's goin' strong

当他变得强大之时

The last one to blame him

她又是最后一个责备他的人

When everything's wrong

当一切都不顺利之时

It's such a one-sided game that they play

他们的爱情就像在玩一场单机游戏

But women are funny that way

但是女人却乐在其中

Tell her she's a fool

说她愚蠢

She'll say yes I know

她会笑然承认说，是的

But I love him so
