阔别乐坛多年的R&B天后惠特妮•休斯顿(Whitney Houston)终于正式对外公布将于本年度9月1日推出她的第七张录音室大碟《I Look to You》。近日，专辑内的首波主打单曲"I Didn't Know My Own Strength"曝光。"I Didn't Know My Own Strength"是一首具有浓厚Whitney Houston风格的抒情R&B单曲。歌曲的前半段歌词比较悲观"I didn't know my own strength / And I crashed down and I tumbled"。但到后来笔锋一转，又变得对前途充满信心"But I did not crumble / I got through all the pain / I didn't know my own strength"。

Lost sight of my dream

I thought it would be the end of me
I thought I'd never make it through

I had no hope to hold on to
hold on to: 拉住(抓牢)
I thought I would break
break: 逐步崩溃，土崩瓦解
I didn't know my own strength

I crashed down and I tumbled

But I did not crumble

I picked myself back up

I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength
Found hope in my heart
I found the light to light my way out of the dark
light: 光明；光亮 light: 照亮
Found all that I need
Here inside of me
Oh
I thought I'd never find my way
I thought that I'd never lift that weight
lift: 抬起 weight: 重担
I thought I would break
I didn't know my own strength
I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour
My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up
Hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength
There were so many times
I wondered how I would get through the night
wonder: 想知道
I thought took all I could take
I didn't know my own strength
I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour
My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up
I hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength
Oh oh
I was not built to break
No No
I got to know my own strength
