[English]

I spent several springs and summers with you.

So many sweet words were once written on paper.

I secretly learned guitar for her.

I wanted to play her favorite sweet words for her.

I warmed a cup of tea for you, don't forget to come home after dark.

No matter how strong the wind is, or how dark the night, I'll always be here.

Time will prove how much I love you. I'll just quietly grow old with you.

My tenderness is exclusively yours.

...

I used to be afraid of walking alone at night.

She helped me to kill all the fears.

I'm also just an ordinary, very ordinary person.

But I also want to become a hero to protect her.

I warmed a cup of tea for you, don't forget to come home after dark.

No matter how strong the wind is, or how dark the night, I'll always be here.

Time will prove how much I love you. I'll just quietly grow old with you.

My tenderness is exclusively yours.

...

I warmed a cup of tea for you, don't forget to come home after dark.

No matter how strong the wind is, or how dark the night, I'll always be here.

Time will prove how much I love you. I'll just quietly grow old with you.

My tenderness is exclusively yours.

My tenderness is exclusively yours.

...

[Chinese]

我陪你度過了幾個的春夏

曾躍然於紙上了多少個情話

為了她偷偷的學會了吉他

想把她最喜歡的情話彈給她

我為你暖了一杯茶 天黑了以後別忘記回家

風越大夜再黑總會有我啊

時間會驗證我多愛你呀 就這樣靜靜的陪著你長大

我的溫柔是你的專屬啊

我以前也很害怕走夜路啊

她讓我殺死了所有的害怕

我也是個普通的很普通的人吶

可我也想變成英雄保護她

我為你暖了一杯茶 天黑了以後別忘記回家

風越大夜再黑總會有我啊

時間會驗證我多愛你呀 就這樣靜靜的陪著你長大

我的溫柔是你的專屬啊

我為你暖了一杯茶 天黑了以後別忘記回家

風再大夜再黑總會有我啊

時間會驗證我多愛你呀 就這樣靜靜的陪著你長大

我的溫柔是你的專屬啊

我的溫柔是你的專屬啊
