[English]

Passing through some autumns and winters

In memories, I involuntarily feel moved for you

Wiping away some shock and fear

In the crowd, who can truly accept you

Amidst those struggles, I feel my heart isn’t enough

Blackout, then I lose control

There's no point caring about you anymore, I have no right to comfort you

No point disturbing you again, I don’t have the guts

Endless apologies, I put them in my heart, waiting for my heart to die

Compared to her, do I still have a glimmer of hope

...

Of course she won’t let go, if only she’d allow me

To learn again, would I go back to being old

During fierce fights, I don’t retreat, I take responsibility without delay

Not afraid of being ugly when wrong, don’t struggle saying there's no problem

I’m simply not better than others

No point caring about you anymore, I have no right to comfort you

No point disturbing you again, I don’t have the guts

Endless apologies, I put them in my heart, waiting for my heart to die

Compared to her, do I still have a chance

...

What I get from hopes has a deadline, what’s lost can’t be reunited and has gone apart

Regret is everywhere like me

No point caring about you anymore, I have no right to comfort you

No point disturbing you again, I don’t have the guts

Endless apologies, I put them in my heart, waiting for my heart to die

Compared to her, do I even dare to compare

If I dare to be more wicked, at least she didn’t give up

...

Passing through some autumns and winters

In memories, you blush in the narrow street

...

[Chinese]

經過一些秋與冬

回憶中 無端為妳動容

揮去一些驚與恐

人海中 誰得著妳認同

在那些掙拗中 我有心不夠用

兩眼一黑 然後失控

無謂再關心妳 我沒資格慰問妳

無謂再騷擾妳 我沒這塊厚面皮

無限次對不起 放在心裡等心死

難道我與她相比 尚有一線生機

當然她不肯放手 如果准我

重新學過 可會白頭

罵戰中不撤走 負責的不押後

做錯的不怕醜 別掙扎說沒有

我根本不比別人優秀

無謂再關心妳 我沒資格慰問妳

無謂再騷擾妳 我沒這塊厚面皮

無限次對不起 放在心裡等心死

難道我與她相比 尚有一線生機

得到的若期望有限期 失去的未重聚已別離

後悔如我遍地

無謂再關心妳 我沒資格慰問妳

無謂再騷擾妳 我沒這塊厚面皮

無限次對不起 放在心裡等心死

難道我與她相比 難道我夠膽相比

若夠膽更卑鄙 她起碼沒放棄

經過一些秋與冬

回憶中 橫街內妳面紅
