除下吊帶前 – Bilingual Lyrics Chinese/English

Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

眼鏡除下 耳環除下

Take off the glasses, take off the earrings

應該吻嗎 心似亂麻

Should I kiss? My heart is in a mess

我想停下 也許只怕

I want to stop, maybe I'm just afraid

太早放縱他 採了嫩芽

To indulge him too early, like picking tender buds

回頭用 餘下 長夜 談話 能嗎

Can we talk through the long night looking back?

不想心軟給了他 叫他 胡亂去花

I don't want to soften my heart and let him go wild

解開我的問題前 其餘未會脫下

Before solving my problems, the rest won't come off

情願扮作 只能看 而不能碰 像幅畫

I'd rather pretend to just watch and not touch, like a painting

除下吊帶前

Before taking off the straps

承諾卻 停滯不前

Promises, however, are stagnant

其實我 盼望能 一起不只 一晚那樣短

Actually, I hope we can be together, not just for a night so short

隨便去痴纏

Casually entangled

如被騙 也沒人可憐

Even if deceived, no one will pity

原諒我 儲起最美一段

Forgive me for saving the most beautiful part

陪著愛戀開展

Accompanying love to unfold

已說得很明顯

It's already very clear

...

...

無遺地 呈現 全部 全沒 神祕

Unreservedly presenting everything, all without mystery

假使想細心 看真 每分 緩慢 揭起

If you want to look closely, see the truth, slowly reveal every moment

好想挽手渡餘年 才留下這禁地

I really want to hold hands and pass the years, leaving this forbidden place

情願與每天玩遊戲 赢到遊戲 至送出驚喜

I'd rather play games every day, winning surprises to give

除下吊帶前

Before taking off the straps

承諾卻 停滯不前

Promises, however, are stagnant

其實我 盼望能 一起不只 一晚那樣短

Actually, I hope we can be together, not just for a night so short

隨便去痴纏

Casually entangled

如被騙 也沒人可憐

Even if deceived, no one will pity

原諒我 儲起最美一段

Forgive me for saving the most beautiful part

如未進的花園

Like an unentered garden

除下吊帶前

Before taking off the straps

承諾卻 停滯不前

Promises, however, are stagnant

其實我 盼望能 一起不只 一晚那樣短

Actually, I hope we can be together, not just for a night so short

除下戒心前

Before lowering my guard

查驗最愛並無虛言

Checking that my love is not empty words

原諒我 極敏感 極計算

Forgive me for being extremely sensitive, extremely calculating

回望我的 缺點

Looking back at my flaws

太喜歡吃 甜

I love sweets too much

從前先一再被騙

Once, I was deceived repeatedly

...
