歌者說這名女子欺騙了他的感情,他說她有一天一定會因此后悔并感到痛苦。的確,人與人相處真誠最可貴,存心欺騙別人的人,傷害別人,終究會傷害到自己。
英文歌詞
Your cheatin heart will make you weep. Youll cry and cry and try to sleep, but sleep wont come the whole night through. Your cheatin heart will tell on you.
When tears come down like falling rain, youll toss around and call my name. Youll walk the floor the way I do. Your cheatin heart will tell on you.
Your cheatin heart will pine someday, and crave the love you threw away. The time will come when youll be blue. Your cheatin heart will tell on you.
歌詞翻譯
你欺騙的心會使你哭泣。你哭了又哭并想法子入睡,但你整夜都睡不著。你欺騙的心有天會泄露你的底細。
當(dāng)淚如雨下,你會輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè)并呼喚我的名字,你會像我一樣在地板上踱來踱去。你欺騙的心有一天會泄露你的底細。
總有一天你會為了我們的愛感到痛苦而消瘦,并渴望重新拾回這份被你拋棄的愛。這個時刻就要來臨了,那時你會悲傷。你欺騙的心有一天會泄露你的底細。

2.weep vi. 流淚; 哭泣 (三態(tài)為: weep、wept [ w pt ]、wept)
例:As soon as she found that she had passed the examination, she wept for joy.

6.toss vi. 輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè) (與around并用)

注意:
英美人士在日常對話中, 表示『輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè)』時, 并不使用toss around一語, 而用toss and turn。

c.walk + 人/狗時, walk仍是一個及物動詞, 當(dāng)『陪人走路』或『遛 狗』解。
