"The Power Of Love"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCkgYhtz64U
The power of love is a curious thing
curious = a) rare, b) strange, c) interesting/ mysterious
a curiosity = a strange thing
make a one man weep, make another man sing
weep = weep = cry 泣く
Change a hawk to a little white dove
a hawk = sb who supports a strong military
a dove = a peace lover
In this case I think "hawk" refers to someone who is quick to anger.
more than a feeling that's the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Diamonds are thought to be the hardest thing in the world.
Love is tough but can make you rich.
Stronger and harder than a bad girl's 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
It takes guts to do that in public.
=Guts are necessary to do that in public.
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
There is a double negative here, but it is only for the rhythm.
It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes
cruel = 残酷
but it might just save your life
That's the power of love
That's the power of love
First time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
mad = a) angry, b) crazy
But you'll be glad baby when you've found
that's 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
It's strong and it's sudden it can be cruel sometimes
but it might just save your life
They say that all in love is fair
Old saying: All's fair in love and war.
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
(Probably referring to God. )
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
