[English]

Nothing's going to stop us

Could it be that you and I are the same

Even if it’s not her, there's probably a problem, right

We should have split up long ago, shouldn't blame her

Even if I track you to the scene of the incident

Keeping a close watch on you, wary of you hooking up with her

The next she will tempt you while I’m not watching

If you’re so easily swayed, I’m not afraid

Even if she’s involved with you

I’d still be happy for you, witness as a third party

Love is the most unreliable thing, none of us can win

No matter how sweet, there's never enough patience to tolerate the fourth person

Spoils the mood

...

At first, I liked you but you already had someone else

All because of me, I ended things and left her behind

The next she just took my place that day

An affair changes partners, don’t be too surprised

Without her, there’d be others

You and I just can’t avoid the chaos and end up missing each other

How many stories end with lovers still being the same person

See clearly, everyone has betrayed or been deceived at some point

Don’t know if changing partners again would be better

Or are we just regressing more and more

Should I step aside or keep betting

Even if I protest again and again, who wins the battle to hold you

Who says loving you is destined for good karma

The fourth person is involved with you

I’m still happy for you, countless affairs shining like stars

Sadly, that complication, nobody can win

Even the warmest feelings are not patient enough to endure a fifth person

Spoils the mood

...

[Chinese]

沒有這件事 防礙我們

難道我和你 又會一樣

就算不是她 也有問題吧

早該分開 不該怪她

即使跟蹤你 來臨案發現場

牢牢看守著你 提防你搭上這一個她

下個她 都會趁我看不到誘惑你

明白如你要這樣易變心 哪到我害怕

就算她 跟你有段情

我也為你高興 用第三者身份見証

最不可靠是愛情 我們無人能得勝

再溫馨 仍不夠耐性 捱得到第四者

煞風景

當初喜歡你 其時你有別人

完全都因為我 才完結過去拋低了她

下個她 不過接替我當天那位置

情外情 轉了對象 別要太驚訝

沒有她 都會有別人

你我避免不過 混亂間將彼此錯過

有幾多故事最後 愛人仍然同一個

看清楚 誰都背叛過 誰亦曾被騙過

不知道 伴侶再換就更好

還是越來越退步

能讓路還是再賭

就算再三上訴 你爭我奪投進誰懷抱

誰話愛你註定 好心好報

第四者 跟你有段情

我也為你高興 外遇萬千燦爛像繁星

可惜那併發症 我們無人能得勝

再溫馨 仍不夠耐性 捱得到第五者

煞風景
