[English]

Yes, indeed there was a clash

And I can't go back to how it was in the beginning

Actually, both hearts knew clearly

Like a fierce fire destroying the greenhouse

Holding each other, watching the stardust scatter

Too happy, but ignoring the wildfires around us

Coming in with cold winds shaking

And regretting that the fireworks burned out without putting out the fire

Holding each other again, holding hands again

Can we go back to that light kiss, that promised moment

Drawing the scenery of our hearts beating together

The kite keeps spinning

Sailing back to the year we held hands

How can it be broken free?

That joyful photo we took together and shared a gaze

This sunset's enchantment captivates the harbor

The song I wrote for you

As if the promise to be together forever still plays

Holding each other again, holding hands again

Can we go back to that light kiss, that promised moment

Drawing the scenery of our hearts beating together

The kite spins around, flying toward the blue sky

Unconcerned, without noticing at all

High up in the sky, whipped by fierce winds

In the end, it all tilts and the string breaks

...

Holding each other again, holding hands again

Can we go back to that light kiss, that promised moment

Regretful years never stop

One more second of nostalgia

One second less changes the meaning of history

The刺 in memories, missing hurts even more

Just wishing not to meet again

...

[Chinese]

對 確實有一場干戈

再 也沒法倒如當初

其實倆心清楚

如像摧毀溫室的猛火

抱 抱著看星塵散落

太 太快樂卻無視身邊野火

來襲冷風吹晃

還後悔花火燒光沒撲火

再抱擁多次 再挽手多次

再可不可以回到輕吻嘴邊相約點

描畫彼此心動景緻

風箏會旋轉

飄往同偕牽手的那年

豈可斷線

那 那合照歡愉對望

這 這夕照迷倒海港

曾為你寫的歌

如未了 約定一生一世還在播

再抱擁多次 再挽手多次

再可不可以回到輕吻嘴邊相約點

描畫彼此心動景緻

風箏會旋轉 飄往藍藍天

竟不怎為意

高空不勝風猛鞭

最後都歪倒斷線

再抱擁多次 再挽手多次

再可不可以回到輕吻嘴邊相約點

遺憾歲月總停不了

多一秒留戀

差一秒歷史改寫意義

回憶的刺 想念痛多一次

只求不相見
