ESL Podcast 318 – Writing a Love Song

（单词翻译）

Isaac: Can you keep it down in there? I’m trying to write a song.

Brittany: You are? What kind of song?

Isaac: It’s none of your business.

Brittany: Come on. Tell me.

Isaac: It’s for Melanie.

Brittany: Oh, it’s a love song. That’s so romantic. Are you going to serenade her?

Isaac: Maybe. Now leave me alone so I can write.

Brittany: Don’t kick me out. Maybe I can help. Let me hear what you have so far.

Isaac: Oh, all right. Here are the lyrics¹. There’re pretty rough. Can you think of something that rhymes with flower?

Brittany: Hmm...let me see. They’re not bad, not too sappy. Let’s hear the melody...That’s nice. The chorus is catchy². Are you going to sing it a cappella?

Isaac: I was going to ask Jimmy to play the guitar to accompany me, so I can make a recording³ of it.

Brittany: Let me do it. I can play the guitar.

Isaac: No way. You won’t take it seriously.

Brittany: I will. I promise. I’ll make little kissing noises in the background and it’ll move her to tears.

Isaac: Forget it! What was I thinking telling you about it?!
