Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

我可以給你的東西

Everything I could give you

已經很多

Was already a lot

你毋通從我這再拿

Don't you ever take more from me

就算雙手努力

Even if I try my best

掏破我的褲底

And wear my pockets bare

也無法給你一個家

I still can't give you a home

當初講好咱這沒啥

We agreed there was nothing between us

山盟海誓

Promises of forever

如今怎樣會變這樣

How did things turn out like this?

希望你要 看開

I hope you can let it go

向這緣份 説再會

Say goodbye to this fate

在沒你的城市

In a city without you

沒海角天邊

No end of the world to run to

這個世界就剩我自己

This world only has me left

在這個所在

In this place

已經沒藥醫

There's no cure anymore

為啥 我要問天

Why do I have to ask the heavens?

我在複雜的世界

In this complicated world

來尋找誰的愛

I'm searching for someone's love

在這無人會認識

No one here knows me

無人來了解

No one understands

一個人的心內

Inside one's heart

痛苦難耐

The pain is unbearable

寂寞無人知

My loneliness is unknown

在這多情的社會

In this sentimental world

來收到誰的信

Whose letter will I receive?

一聲愛你一句話

Those words, 'I love you'

我不曾放心底

I never took to heart

要記得過了昨眠

Remember, after yesterday

當我沒愛過

I never loved you

寂寞的心

Lonely heart

我走出黑暗的路

I'm walking out of the dark

酒落以後 有新的故事

After the drinks, there's a new story

甘甜的滋味 越愛越難過

The sweet taste, the more I love, the sadder I get

真難過 押下了我的全部

So sad, I bet all of myself

帶我乘風破浪的姊姊

The sister who takes me through the waves

是你讓我變狂野

You're the one who made me wild

有個家也能在外過夜

I have a home but can still spend the night out

心颳起暴風雪

A blizzard is raging in my heart

我有多重人格

I have multiple personalities

隨便讓你挑個 KNOCK KNOCK

Pick one, knock, knock

寶貝你先睡吧

Baby, you go to sleep first

回來我再幫你 打打

I'll help you when I get back.

在沒你的城市

In a city without you

沒海角天邊

No end of the world to run to

這個世界就剩我自己

This world only has me left

在這個所在

In this place

已經沒藥醫

There's no cure anymore

為啥 我要問天

Why do I have to ask the heavens?

我在複雜的世界

In this complicated world

來尋找誰的愛

I'm searching for someone's love

在這無人會認識

No one here knows me

無人來了解

No one understands

一個人的心內

Inside one's heart

痛苦難耐

The pain is unbearable

寂寞無人知

My loneliness is unknown

一聲愛你一句話

Those words, 'I love you'

我不曾放心底

I never took to heart

要記得過了昨眠

Remember, after yesterday

當我沒愛過

I never loved you

Key Grammar Structures

• 你毋通從我這再拿

  ➔ Imperative sentence with negative command using "毋通"

  ➔ "毋通" (m̄-thang) is a Taiwanese Hokkien expression indicating prohibition, similar to "不要" (bù yào) in Mandarin Chinese. Here, it creates a direct and forceful command: "Don't take anymore from me."

• 如今怎樣會變這樣

  ➔ Interrogative sentence with modal verb expressing surprise or disbelief. Use of "怎樣" (zěnyàng) to ask "how" or "why".

  ➔ The sentence literally translates to "How did it become like this now?" and expresses confusion or disappointment. The use of "會 (huì)" implies possibility or change, while "怎樣" inquires about the reason or the way things have transpired.

• 希望你要 看開

  ➔ Imperative tone implied with "希望你 (xīwàng nǐ)" + verb phrase. Suggestion or wish.

  ➔ "希望你 (xīwàng nǐ)" means "I hope you". "看開 (kànkāi)" meaning "to see through", "to take things lightly". So the sentence conveys the speaker's wish for the other person to let go of the past and move on.

• 一聲愛你一句話, 我不曾放心底

  ➔ Emphasis on negation with "不曾 (bùcéng)" indicating "never". The structure emphasizes the contrast between words said and feelings held.

  ➔ "我不曾放心底 (wǒ bù céng fàng xīndǐ)" meaning "I never kept it in my heart." This implies that although the words of love were said, they were not sincerely felt or taken to heart by the speaker.

• 要記得過了昨眠, 當我沒愛過

  ➔ Use of "要記得 (yào jìdé)" to express a strong reminder or instruction. The phrase "當我沒愛過 (dàng wǒ méi àiguò)" utilizes the "當 (dàng)" to express treating something as if it were so.

  ➔ "要記得 (yào jìdé)" means "remember". "過了昨眠 (guò le zuómián)" means "after yesterday (night)", indicating from tomorrow onward. "當我沒愛過 (dàng wǒ méi àiguò)" means "treat me as if I never loved you". The phrase is a way of severing ties and moving forward.

• 甘甜的滋味 越愛越難過

  ➔ The structure "越...越... (yuè...yuè...)" expresses "the more... the more...". It highlights the intensifying relationship between two related elements.

  ➔ "甘甜的滋味 (gāntián de zīwèi)" means "sweet taste". Here, the sentence means "The more one loves, the more painful it becomes." The structure emphasizes the paradoxical relationship between love and suffering.
