I have a childish idea

To give you a spell that binds me to you

If I turn into a snowman, I can slowly melt away

Letting you take my most beautiful years

...

I have another naive thought

To abandon the world and leave just the two of us

If reality isn’t a fairy tale, I’ll become your white horse

Taking you only to pick the flowers watered by my scars

...

I adore you—your smile sets my world ablaze

You understand my lonely existence

All the world’s waiting can’t match your words: “Will you come with me?”

...

But strangely, your smile brings love and pain anew

I’m still using the remnants of the last time

As long as my memories remain, I won’t regret, letting you leave satisfied

...

I’ll give you a way to stop me

From now on, no more truth-telling

You ask, I answer—the loser slowly turns to wood

I hope I’m graceful, my wounds blooming into flowers you love

...

I adore you—your smile leads me through fire and swords

I should’ve lived a life without love

The world’s regrets can be replaced, but not you

...

I can’t escape your smile—I’ll rise again

Without you, I probably wouldn’t exist

As long as you remember me, I’ll stay pure and continue my adoration

...

I adore you, but how strange

I adore you, yet I can’t escape

...

Since falling for you, I’ve spent all my adoration—I no longer exist

[Chinese]

作词 : 薛之谦/子望

作曲 : 薛之谦/郭冠廷

我有一个幼稚的想法

给你一个约束我的魔法

我变成雪人的话就可以慢慢融化

让你收下我最美的年华

我还有一个无知的想法

抛弃世界吧就剩我们俩

若现实不是童话我就变成你的白马

只带你去摘下用我伤疤灌溉的鲜花

我崇拜你回眸一笑就万里火海

能明白我孤独的存在

世间万般等待不及你口先开要不要跟我来

可好奇怪你回眸一笑就爱恨重来

我还在用上次的遗骸

只要记忆还在我就不知悔改让你满意离开

我给你一个阻止我的办法

从现在开始不准说真话

你提问我来回答输的人慢慢木化

但愿我很优雅伤口还能长出你爱的花

我崇拜你回眸一笑就刀山火海

我本来应该一生无爱

世间好多遗憾一切都有替代但除了你以外

躲不开你回眸一笑我卷土重来

我大概没你就不存在

只要你还缅怀我会洁身自爱继续我的崇拜

我崇拜可好奇怪

我崇拜又躲不开

爱上了你以来耗尽所有崇拜我已不复存在
