[English]

Here we go

Maybe we have to wait a hundred centuries

Before we can discover the beauty of true love

The agave flower doesn't represent splendor

Choosing to burn oneself to continue true love

Like the thorn bird's fate, tragic but brave

Exchanging life for the brilliance of the ending

Who pushed open the wind in the sky? Your love is a warm hand

I'm still waiting, waiting for your love, a true cry

The sky is clear, my mood is blue, holding hands never letting go

Why don't you come back, why don't you come back? The thorn bird calls

The agave flower doesn't represent splendor

Choosing to burn oneself to continue true love

Like the thorn bird's fate, tragic but brave

Exchanging life for the brilliance of the ending

Who pushed open the wind in the sky? Your love is a warm hand

I'm still waiting, waiting for your love, a true cry

The sky is clear, my mood is blue, holding hands never letting go

Why don't you come back, why don't you come back? The thorn bird calls

Who pushed open the wind in the sky? Your love is a warm hand

I'm still waiting, waiting for your love, a true cry

The sky is clear, my mood is blue, holding hands never letting go

I've gone through the pain, the most beautiful answer is your love

Over

[Chinese]

要開始囉〃

也許就是要等 一百個世紀

我們才能夠發現 真愛的美麗

龍舌蘭的花朵 不代表絢麗

選擇燃燒了自己 將真愛延續

就像刺鳥的宿命 悲劇卻勇敢

用生命交換結局的燦爛

天上的風被誰推開 溫暖的手是你的愛

我還在等待等待你的愛 真實呼喊

天空晴朗心情很藍 緊握的手絕不鬆開

怎麼不回來怎麼不回來 刺鳥呼喚

龍舌蘭的花朵 不代表絢麗

選擇燃燒了自己 將真愛延續

就像刺鳥的宿命 悲劇卻勇敢

用生命交換結局的燦爛

天上的風被誰推開 溫暖的手是你的愛

我還在等待等待你的愛 真實呼喊

天空晴朗心情很藍 緊握的手絕不鬆開

怎麼不回來怎麼不回來 刺鳥呼喚

天上的風被誰推開 溫暖的手是你的愛

我還在等待等待你的愛 真實呼喊

天空晴朗心情很藍 緊握的手絕不鬆開

我穿越傷害最美的答案 是你的愛
