  SongHer Diamonds

  Oh what the hell she says

  I just can't win for losing

  And she lays back down

  Man there's so many times

  I don't know what Im doin'

  Like I don't know now

  By the light of the moon

  She rubs her eyes

  Says it's funny how the night

  Can make you blind

  I can just imagine

  And I don't know what Im supposed to do

  But if she feels bad then I do too

  So I let her be

  And she says oooh

  I can't take no more

  Her tears like diamonds on the floor

  And her diamonds bring me down

  Cuz I can't help her now

  Shes down in it

  She tried her best and now she can't win it's

  Hard to see them on the ground

  Her diamonds falling down

  She sits down and stares into the distance

  And it takes all night

  And I know I could break her concentration

  Oh But it don't feel right

  By the light of the moon

  She rubs her eyes

  Sits down on the bed and starts to cry

  And there's something less about her

  And I don't know what Im supposed to do

  So I sit down and I cry too

  And don't let her see

  And she says oooh

  I can't take no more

  Her tears like diamonds on the floor

  And her diamonds bring me down

  Cuz I can't help her now

  Shes down in it

  She tried her best and now she can't win it's

  Hard to see them on the ground

  Her diamonds falling down

  She shuts out the night

  Tries to close her eyes

  If she can find daylight

  Shell be all right

  Shell be all right

  Just not tonight

  And she says oooh

  I can't take no more

  Her tears like diamonds on the floor

  And her diamonds bring me down

  Cuz I can't help her now

  Shes down in it

  She tried her best and now she can't win it's

  Hard to see them on the ground

  Her diamonds falling down

  I can't take no more

  Her tears like diamonds on the floor

  And her diamonds bring me down

  Cuz I can't help her now

  Shes down in it

  She tried her best and now she can't win it's

  Hard to see them on the ground

  Her diamonds falling down

  I can't take no more

  Diamonds on the floor

  No more no more

  Diamonds falling down

  I can't take no more

  Diamonds on the floor

  No more no more

  No more

  Diamonds falling down

  I can't take no more

  Diamonds on the floor

  Diamonds fall oh the diamonds

  Diamonds falling down

  I can't take these diamonds falling down

 

詞彙講解

  1.Oh what the hell she says

  她究竟說了什麼?

  hell 本來表示地獄的意思,the hell 用來加強語氣,使整個句子的表達更加生動。

  例如:

  What the hell is going on?

  究竟出了什麼事?

  2. And I don't know what Im supposed to do

  我不知道自己該怎麼辦

  suppose

  suppose的基本意思是“猜想;以為;假定”,但在不同的語境中用法有所不同:

  1. suppose + that 從句,表示“猜測;假定”。如:

  I suppose that you are right. 我想你是對的。

  You can suppose that A equals B. 你可以假定A等於B

  2. suppose +名詞 / 代詞 + to be...,表示“認為……是……”。如:

  Many people suppose him to be over 50. 許多人認為他已經50多歲了。

  3. suppose還可以用於祈使句中,表示“讓……”。如:

  Suppose we go for a swim. (= Let's go for a swim.) 讓我們去游泳吧。

  be supposed to 的用法

  用法一: be supposed to... 其中to是動詞不定式符號,不是介詞,其後要跟動詞原形。當be supposed

  to... 的主語是“人”時,意為“應該……;“被期望……”,它可以用來表示勸告、建議、義務、責任等,相當於情態動詞should。如:

  Everyone is supposed to wear a seat-belt in the car.

  車裡的每個人都應該系安全帶。

  Teachers are supposed to treat all the students alike.

  老師應該對所有的學生一視同仁。

  用法二:當be supposed to... 的主語是“物”時,它表示“本應;本該”,用於表示“某事本應該發生而沒有發生”。如:

  The new laws are supposed to prevent crime. 這些新法令本應該起到防止犯罪的作用。

  The train was supposed to arrive half an hour ago. 火車本應在半小時之前到達。

  用法三: be supposed to後面接“have + 過去分詞”時,表示“本應該做某事而沒做”。如:

  You are supposed to have handed in your homework by now.

  現在你應該已經把作業交上來了。

  He is supposed to have arrived an hour ago. 他應該一小時前就到了。

  用法四: be supposed to... 的否定結構為be not supposed to...,它常用於口語中,意為“不被許可;不應當”。如:

  She was not supposed to be angry about that. 她本不該為那件事而生氣的。

  You are not supposed to smoke on the bus. 你不應該在公共汽車上吸煙。
