Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

我的青春也不是沒傷痕

My youth is not without scars

是明白愛是信仰的延伸

It's understanding that love is an extension of faith

什麼特徵人緣還是眼神

What traits, whether it's charm or gaze

也不會預知愛不愛的可能

Can't predict the possibilities of love or not

保持單身忍不住又沉淪

Staying single yet unable to resist sinking in

兜著圈子來去有時苦等

Going in circles, sometimes waiting in vain

人的一生感情是旋轉門

In a person's life, emotions are revolving doors

轉到了最後真心的就不分

In the end, those who are sincere won't be separated

有過競爭有過犧牲

There has been competition, there has been sacrifice

被愛篩選過程

The process of being filtered by love

學會認真學會忠誠

Learning to be serious, learning to be loyal

適者才能生存

Only the fittest can survive

懂得永恆得要我們

Understanding that eternity requires us

進化成更好的人

Evolving into a better person

...

我的青春有時還蠻單純

My youth is sometimes quite simple

相信幸福取決於愛得深

Believing that happiness depends on the depth of love

讀進化論我贊成達爾文

Reading the theory of evolution, I agree with Darwin

沒實力的就有淘汰的可能

Those without strength have the possibility of being eliminated

我的替身已換過多少輪

How many rounds has my substitute gone through

記憶在舊情人心中變冷

Memories grow cold in the hearts of old lovers

我的一生有幾道旋轉門

In my life, there are several revolving doors

轉到了最後只剩你我沒分

In the end, only you and I remain, not separated

有過競爭有過犧牲

There has been competition, there has been sacrifice

被愛篩選過程

The process of being filtered by love

學會認真學會忠誠

Learning to be serious, learning to be loyal

適者才能生存

Only the fittest can survive

懂得永恆得要我們

Understanding that eternity requires us

進化成更好的人

Evolving into a better person

有過競爭有過犧牲

There has been competition, there has been sacrifice

被愛篩選過程

The process of being filtered by love

學會認真學會忠誠

Learning to be serious, learning to be loyal

適者才能生存

Only the fittest can survive

懂得永恆得要我們

Understanding that eternity requires us

進化成更好的人

Evolving into a better person

懂得永恆得要我們

Understanding that eternity requires us

進化成更好的人

Evolving into a better person

...

...

進化成更好的人

Evolving into a better person
