妳是我的完美

Lyrics:

[中文]

[English]

答應我 要牢記著我

Promise me, you'll always remember me

在距離那麼遙遠的那個盡頭

At that faraway end, so distant

用來想念妳 佔去了所有

Thinking of you, it occupies everything

我的呼吸

My breath

繞著我 晨昏和朝夕

Surrounds me, from dawn till dusk

我一舉一動都沾滿妳的氣息

Every move I make is filled with your essence

這樣會不會 就當沒發生

Could it be, we can just pretend it never happened?

沒掉眼淚

Without shedding tears

我知道愛它可以愛很久

I know that love, it can last for a long time

可是它時間的河一直流

But the river of time keeps flowing on

要沖走濃濃綿綿的回憶

Washing away the thick, lingering memories

我不停的抗拒

I resist it endlessly

它吹啊 吹啊 多情風

It blows and blows, the sentimental wind

我飛啊 飛啊 在天空

I fly and fly, in the sky

要飛到我倆的世界

Gotta fly to the world that belongs to us

妳是我的完美

You are my perfect

我知道愛它可以愛很久

I know that love, it can last for a long time

可是它時間的河一直流

But the river of time keeps flowing on

要沖走濃濃綿綿的回憶

Washing away the thick, lingering memories

我不停的抗拒

I resist it endlessly

它吹啊 吹啊 多情風

It blows and blows, the sentimental wind

我飛啊 飛啊 在天空

I fly and fly, in the sky

要飛到我倆的世界

Gotta fly to the world that belongs to us

妳是我的完美

You are my perfect

它吹啊 吹啊 多情風

It blows and blows, the sentimental wind

我飛啊 飛啊 在天空

I fly and fly, in the sky

要自由自在的遨遊

Gotta roam freely and unconstrained

直到有妳的盡頭

Until the end where you are

...

Grammar:

• 答應我 要牢記著我

  ➔ Imperative sentence structure with '要'

  ➔ “答應我” (Promise me) is the imperative part. The '要' before '牢記著我' (remember me firmly) emphasizes the request.

• 用來想念妳 佔去了所有

  ➔ Using '用來' (yonglai) to indicate purpose/function

  ➔ '用來' + verb phrase (想念妳) explains the purpose/function: '用来想念你' - used for missing you. '佔去了所有' - takes up everything.

• 這樣會不會 就當沒發生

  ➔ Conditional sentence structure with '會不會' and '就當'

  ➔ '會不會' indicates a possibility or rhetorical question. '就當' means 'just treat it as if'. So, '這樣會不會 就當沒發生' - 'Would it be possible to just treat it as if it never happened?'

  ➔ Use of '一直' (yizhi) to indicate continuous action/state

  ➔ '一直流' means 'continuously flows'.

• 要沖走濃濃綿綿的回憶

  ➔ '要沖走' (yao chong zou) - 'will wash away'. Adjective duplication emphasizes the degree of the adjective: 濃濃 (nongnong) - very strong/thick, 綿綿 (mianmian) - very continuous/lingering.

• 我不停的抗拒

  ➔ Use of '不停的' (bù tíng de) to indicate continuous action.

  ➔ '我不停的抗拒' (Wǒ bù tíng de kàngjù) means 'I continuously resist'. '不停的' functions as an adverb modifying '抗拒' (kàngjù - resist).

• 它吹啊 吹啊 多情風

  ➔ Repetition for emphasis, 啊 (a) as a modal particle.

  ➔ Repeating '吹啊' (chui a - blows) emphasizes the action. '啊' is a modal particle, adding a sense of emotion or exclamation.
