Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

那日咖啡室 我也在坐

That day in the coffee shop, I was sitting there too.

大堂裡 幾度化蝶飛過

In the lobby, butterflies fluttered by many times.

近共遠之間分享不多

Not much shared between us, near or far.

也許只空氣裡的呼吸 對調過

Maybe it's just the breath in the air exchanging places.

今天我願償貼近你撫摸

Today I’m willing to get close and touch you.

可否一吻 吸去我麼

Could a single kiss take away my worries?

前面顧慮太多 卻未能靜止旋渦

Previously, I was too cautious, and couldn't stop the whirlpool.

我吻著你同步呼吸這一口氣

I kiss you, breathing together in this moment.

哪怕是雲層上最薄的空氣

Even if it's just the thinnest air above the clouds.

只知不親你必會冰凍至死

I know not to touch you might freeze me to death.

我閉著氣期望鎖起快樂滋味

I hold my breath, hoping to lock in this happiness.

絕了呼吸也未得到你

Even stopping my breath, I still couldn't have you.

一起 幾秒鐘 可騙到自己

A few seconds together can fool myself.

...

...

你用過的杯 我要用麼

The cup you've used, should I use it too?

舊唇印 她吻的有幾個

How many of her lipstick marks are there on it?

吻共愛之間 相差幾多

Between kisses and love, how much difference is there?

你也許此刻再洗不清 那後果

Maybe at this moment, you can't wash away the consequences.

...

...

此刻你突然唱著我的歌

Right now, you suddenly sing my song.

空中感應 感覺到麼

Does sensing in the air feel anything?

連著我是你麼 吻在唇便知 如火

Are we connected? If I kiss your lips, I’ll know—like fire.

我吻著你同步呼吸這一口氣

I kiss you, breathing together in this moment.

哪怕是雲層上最薄的空氣

Even if it's just the thinnest air above the clouds.

只知不親你必會冰凍至死

I know not to touch you might freeze me to death.

我閉著氣期望鎖起快樂滋味

I hold my breath, hoping to lock in this happiness.

絕了呼吸也未得到你

Even stopping my breath, I still couldn't have you.

一起 幾秒鐘 可騙到自己

A few seconds together can fool myself.

...

...

我吻著你如像消失最後天地

I kiss you, as if the last world is disappearing.

直到瓦解也未肯捨棄

Even until everything collapses, I won't give up.

只好 吞了你的氣

So I can only swallow your breath.

愛著空氣

Loving the air itself.

...

...
