[English]

Watching you and him walk up to me

Smiling, he says to me

Long time no see

If I hadn’t let go back then

Would I still be waiting here today

Is it because I let go that I can’t move on

I wouldn’t be forced to endure

That sad pride

All the sadness was left behind

On the day we broke up

Maybe love wasn’t perfect then

Love wasn’t complete

My own letting go

Is better than tangled in three conflicting hearts

The青春 years I spent loving you so much

Have only earned me this reply:

Thank you for letting go

It made you free and adventurous

It gave me my blue sky and sea

The vows of love you promised

Sweet words whispered

All I have is a regretless farewell

Letting go for your today and tomorrow

Letting go for my next...

Summer

Again, I didn’t let go because I had to

That silly pride

All the sadness was left behind

On the day we broke up

Maybe love wasn’t forever then

Love wasn’t complete

My own letting go

Is better than being stuck in three-way struggles

The青春 years I loved you so much

Have only earned me this reply:

Thank you for letting go

It made you free and adventurous

It gave me my blue sky and sea

The vows of love you promised

Sweet words whispered

All I have is a regretless farewell

Letting go for your today and

And tomorrow

Letting go for my next...

Summer

Again, I didn’t let go because I had to

That silly pride

All the sadness was left behind

On the day we broke up

Maybe love wasn’t forever then

Love wasn’t perfect

My own letting go

Is better than being tangled in three hearts

The青春 years I loved you so deeply

Have only earned me this reply:

Thank you for letting me go

[Chinese]

看著你和他 走到我面前

微笑地對我說聲

好久不見

如果當初沒有

我的成全

是不是今天還在原地盤旋

不為了勉強

可笑的尊嚴

所有的悲傷丟在

分手那天

未必永遠才算

愛得完全

一個人的成全

好過三個人的糾結

我對你付出的青春這麼多年

換來了一句

謝謝你的成全

成全了你的瀟灑與冒險

成全了我的碧海藍天

他許你的海誓山盟

密語甜言

我只有一句不後悔的成全

成全了你的今天與明天

成全了我的下個

夏天

不為了勉強

可笑的尊嚴

所有的悲傷丟在

分手那天

未必永遠才算

愛得完全

一個人的成全

好過三個人的糾結

我對你付出的青春這麼多年

換來了一句

謝謝你的成全

成全了你的瀟灑與冒險

成全了我的碧海藍天

他許你的海誓山盟

密語甜言

我只有一句不後悔的成全

成全了你的今天與

與明天

成全了我的下個

夏天

我對你付出的青春這麼多年

換來了一句

謝謝你的成全

成全了你的瀟灑與冒險

成全了我的碧海藍天

他許你的海誓山盟

密語甜言

我只有一句不後悔的成全

成全了你的今天與明天

成全了我的下個

夏天
