晴天

• By: 周杰倫

Lyrics:

[中文]

[English]

故事的小黃花 從出生那年就飄著

The little yellow flower has been drifting since the year I was born

童年的盪鞦韆 隨記憶一直晃到現在

The childhood swing has been swaying in my memories until now

為妳翹課的那一天 花落的那一天

The day I skipped class for you, the day the flowers fell

教室的那一間 我怎麼看不見

That classroom, why can't I see it?

消失的下雨天 我好想再淋一遍

The rainy days that disappeared, I really want to feel the rain again

沒想到失去的勇氣我還留著

I didn't expect to still have the courage I lost

好想再問一遍 妳會等待還是離開

I really want to ask again, will you wait or leave?

颳風這天 我試過握著妳手

On this windy day, I tried to hold your hand

但偏偏 雨漸漸 大到我看妳不見

But unfortunately, the rain gradually became so heavy that I couldn't see you

還要多久 我才能在妳身邊

How much longer until I can be by your side?

等到放晴的那天 也許我會比較好一點

When the day clears up, maybe I'll feel a little better

從前從前 有個人愛妳很久

Once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time

但偏偏 風漸漸 把距離吹得好遠

But unfortunately, the wind gradually blew the distance far away

好不容易 又能再多愛一天

Finally, I can love you for one more day

但故事的最後妳好像還是說了拜拜

But in the end of the story, it seems you still said goodbye

為妳翹課的那一天 花落的那一天

The day I skipped class for you, the day the flowers fell

教室的那一間 我怎麼看不見

That classroom, why can't I see it?

消失的下雨天 我好想再淋一遍

The rainy days that disappeared, I really want to feel the rain again

沒想到失去的勇氣我還留著

I didn't expect to still have the courage I lost

好想再問一遍 妳會等待還是離開

I really want to ask again, will you wait or leave?

颳風這天 我試過握著妳手

On this windy day, I tried to hold your hand

但偏偏 雨漸漸 大到我看妳不見

But unfortunately, the rain gradually became so heavy that I couldn't see you

還要多久 我才能夠在妳身邊

How much longer until I can be by your side?

等到放晴的那天 也許我會比較好一點

When the day clears up, maybe I'll feel a little better

從前從前 有個人愛妳很久

Once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time

但偏偏 雨漸漸 把距離吹得好遠

But unfortunately, the rain gradually blew the distance far away

好不容易 又能再多愛一天

Finally, I can love you for one more day

但故事的最後妳好像還是說了拜拜

But in the end of the story, it seems you still said goodbye
