Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

彷彿上一分鐘 你還陪在我左右

As if just a minute ago, you were still by my side

還以為我們會開花結果

I even thought we would blossom and bear fruit

我還記得玫瑰色天空 卻模糊了我們的臉孔

I still remember the rose-colored sky, but our faces are blurred

哼過的歌到底是什麼內容

What exactly were the lyrics of the song we hummed?

彷彿已經自由 下一刻我變成風

As if I'm already free, the next moment I become the wind

吹過你的領空 差點失控

Blowing through your airspace, almost lost control

回憶在夜裡鬧得很兇 我想我可以明白你所有的痛

Memories are raging wildly in the night, I think I can understand all your pain

想讓你知道我懂 卻擔心言不由衷

I want to let you know I understand, but I worry my words won't be sincere

我們都接受 一定是彼此不夠成熟

We both accept that we must have been too immature

在愛情裡分不了輕重

Unable to weigh the importance in love

誠實得過了頭

Too honest for our own good

不能退後也無法向前走

Unable to retreat, yet unable to move forward

愛是一個自私的念頭

Love is a selfish thought

把寂寞消除的理由

A reason to eliminate loneliness

剩下的那些感動

Those remaining touches

能記得多久

How long can we remember them?
