明明就

• By: 周杰倫

Lyrics:

[中文]

[English]

糖果罐裡好多顏色

There are so many colors in the candy jar

微笑卻不甜了

The smile is no longer sweet

你的某些快樂

Some of your happiness

在沒有我的時刻

In moments without me

中古世紀的城市裡

In the medieval city

我想就走到這

I think I’ll just stop here

海鷗不再眷戀大海

The seagull no longer yearns for the sea

可以飛更遠

It can fly even further

遠方傳來風笛

The sound of a bagpipe comes from afar

我只在意有你的消息

I only care about news of you

城堡為愛守著秘密

The castle keeps secrets for love

而我為你守著回憶

And I keep memories for you

明明就不習慣牽手

Clearly, I'm not used to holding hands

為何卻主動把手勾

Why do I take the initiative to hook your hand?

你的心事太多 我不會戳破

You have too many secrets, I won’t poke at them

明明就他比較溫柔

Clearly, he is gentler

也許他能給你更多

Maybe he can give you more

不用抉擇 我會自動變朋友

No need to choose, I will automatically become a friend

...
