1.I Need To Be In Love

Written:R.Carpenter/John Bettis/Albert Hammond

The hardest thing I've ever done
Is keep believing
There's someone in this crazy world
For me
The way that people come and go
Through temporary lives
My chance could come and
I might never know

I used to say 'No promises
Let's keep it simple'
But freedom only helps you say
Goodbye

It took a while for me to learn
That nothing comes for free
The price I paid is high enough for me

*I know I need to be in love
I know I've wasted too much time
I know I ask perfection of
A quite imperfect world
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find

So here I am with pockets full
Of good intentions
But none of them will comfort me
Tonight
I'm wide awake at four a.m
Without a friend in sight
Hanging on a hope but I'm all right

* Repeat


我需要戀愛

我所作過最艱難的事,就是一直相信這個瘋狂的世上有個我的他。
人們在短暫的生命裡來去匆匆,
我等侍的機會可能到來而我卻未察覺。

我曾說過:「別對我承諾,我要一份簡單的愛情!」
然而給你自由,卻讓你輕易道別離。

我花了好久的時間才學會,天下沒有不費功夫的好事。
而我所付出的伐價卻已太高。

*我知道我需要戀愛,我知道我浪費了太多的時間。
我知道我對這不完美的世界要求無瑕的愛情,傻得以為自己可以找到。

現在的我滿懷著美好的想法,但是今夜我無法從中尋得一絲安慰。
清晨四點醒來的我,沒有朋友在身旁,只有秉持著一個希望。
我還是撐得過來。
*重複兩遍
