除非 將畢生所信 也推翻
Unless I overturn everything I believe in my life
除非 能說服我 只開一隻眼
Unless you can convince me to only open one eye
雖則你和我 已是爭吵慣
Although you and I are used to arguing

Between lovers, speaking from the heart is simpler than reasoning
纏綿一番 難教義理相沖也沖淡
After a passionate encounter, it's hard to let principles clash and fade
伴你共渡過劫難 分擔過人間悲慘
Accompanying you through hardships, sharing the world's tragedies
