[English]

A clock with no circumference loses its meaning to rotate

On this rainy day, it's so quiet

Traveling without a destination, distance isn't a problem

Not loving anymore, that's your mystery

I occupy Greenwich, waiting for you

At the start of standard time, reminiscing about the past

But you're traveling in the polar night forever

Waiting for love to gradually die after the cold sets in

Oh, sorry, that phrase disturbed the time zone

Oh, you want me to sleep during the most loved time

The more I think, the clearer I become

Oh, loving you doesn't matter, just a little time difference, oh

You left with a punch that's too heavy

My heart can't find the date line, where is it

I can only keep flying until I turn you around

Loving you isn't afraid of that tiny time difference, oh

Just let me go on alone

Your heart always has a latitude and longitude that remains

I will return to your world crossing love's time difference

...

Waiting for love to gradually die after the cold sets in

[Chinese]

沒有圓周的鐘 失去旋轉意義

下雨這天 好安靜

遠行沒有目的 距離不是問題

不愛了 是妳的謎底

我佔據 格林威治 守候著妳

在時間 標準起點 回憶過去

妳卻在 永夜了的 極地旅行

等愛在 失溫後 漸漸死去

喔 對不起 這句話 打亂了時區

喔 妳要我 在最愛的時候 睡去

我越想越清醒

喔 愛妳沒差 那一點時差 喔

妳離開這一拳給的 太重

我的心找不到 換日線 它在哪

我只能不停的飛 直到我將妳挽回

愛妳不怕 那一點時差 喔

就讓我靜靜一個人 出發

你的心總有個 經緯度 會留下

我會回到你世界 跨越愛的時差

沒有圓周的鐘 失去旋轉意義

下雨這天 好安靜

遠行沒有目的 距離不是問題

不愛了 是你的謎底

我佔據 格林威治 守候著妳

在時間 標準起點 回憶過去

妳卻在 永夜了的 極地旅行

等愛在 失溫後 漸漸死去

喔 對不起 這句話 打亂了時區

喔 妳要我 在最愛的時候 睡去

我越想越清醒

喔 愛妳沒差 那一點時差 喔

妳離開這一拳給的 太重

我的心找不到 換日線 它在哪

我只能不停的飛 直到我將妳挽回

那一點時差 喔

就讓我靜靜一個人 出發

妳的心總有個 經緯度 會留下

我會回到妳世界 跨越愛的時差
