Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

若 若你要說的講不了

If, if there's something you can't say,

我會靠緊你聆聽你心跳

I'll hold you close, listening to your heartbeat.

隨時都 來騷擾

Feel free to bother me anytime.

如若 若你嘆見得不多了

If, if you sigh, feeling you haven't seen enough,

我會說分享時間更緊要

I'll say sharing time is more important.

聊聊天 微微笑

Let's chat, smile a little.

假使你很怕當我面流下眼淚

If you're afraid of crying in front of me,

請謹記你是看著我大個 為何害怕拖累

Please remember you've watched me grow up, why fear burdening me?

命運像流水 坦率淌下去

Fate is like flowing water, let it run frankly.

假使你想歇一歇息 忘掉顧慮

If you want to rest, forget your worries,

請相信每日努力過下去 便無力再恐懼

Please believe that if you work hard every day, you'll have no strength to fear.

太多心 才心虛

Too much worrying makes you insecure.

若 若你怕看不見未來

If, if you're afraid of not seeing the future,

你我至少以談笑對感慨

At least we can face our feelings with laughter.

仍能哭 仍能愛

We can still cry, still love.

假使你很怕當我面流下眼淚

If you're afraid of crying in front of me,

請謹記你是看著我大個 為何害怕拖累

Please remember you've watched me grow up, why fear burdening me?

命運問誰 坦率去面對

Fate asks who will face it frankly.

假使你想歇一歇息 忘掉顧慮

If you want to rest, forget your worries,

請相信每日努力過下去 便無力再恐懼

Please believe that if you work hard every day, you'll have no strength to fear.

看風箏 何必追

Why chase after a kite?

假使你想閉起眼睛平靜進睡

If you want to close your eyes and sleep peacefully,

請相信這份愛定會讓我在來日再相聚

Please believe this love will ensure we meet again in the future.

那一天 才頂嘴

That day, I'll talk back.

你的風趣 記在心裏

Your humor, I'll keep it in my heart.
