[English]

The thunderstorm still rages on

The world is like a blurry freeze frame of you

Always thought I could love forever

But time taught us a lesson

The road can't be rewound

I missed my chance

I say I’m happy, I don’t care

You understand me best, I’ve given everything for you, and I don’t regret it

As long as you’re happy, I don’t necessarily need to possess

You said you want freedom, I have no reason to stop you

Honestly, I’m happy and tear up for you

As long as you find your happiness and joy, it’s not wasted

How many mistakes have I made before, finally understanding what love is

How great is regret, the ones we loved are unforgettable

The more you love someone, the more you try to let go

The harder I try to forget, the more I can't bear to part

I always thought I could get back what I lost

But you have a better future waiting for you

I will truly support you

I smile and say goodbye

Honestly, I’m happy and tear up for you

As long as you find your happiness and joy, it’s not wasted

How many mistakes have I made before, finally understanding what love is

How great is regret, the ones we loved are unforgettable

I say I’m happy, I don’t care

You understand me best, I’ve given everything for you, and I don’t regret it

As long as you’re happy, I don’t necessarily need to possess

You said you want freedom, I have no reason to stop you

Honestly, I’m happy and tear up for you

As long as you find your happiness and joy, it’s not wasted

I'm so lucky to have met your most cherished embrace

How great is regret, the ones we loved are unforgettable

[Chinese]

雷雨依旧 奔跑着

世界像你 模糊停格

总以为能 永远爱着

时间 却帮我们上了一课

路 无法倒退

我 错过机会

我说着 我很快乐 我无所谓

你最懂我的 为你付出 我不后悔

只要你过得好 我不一定 需要拥有

你说要自由 我没理由 不让你走

说真的 我很快乐 为你流泪

你找到你的 幸福快乐 就不浪费

要犯过多少错 终于懂得 爱是什么

遗憾有多好 爱过的人忘不掉

越努力爱 一个人

越想割舍 越舍不得

总以为能 失而复得

你却 有更好的未来等着

我 一定成全

我 微笑告别

说真的 我很快乐 为你流泪

你找到你的 幸福快乐 就不浪费

要犯过多少错 终于懂得 爱是什么

遗憾有多好 爱过的人忘不掉

我说着 我很快乐 我无所谓

你最懂我的 为你付出 我不后悔

只要你过得好 我不一定 需要拥有

你说要自由 我没理由 不让你走

说真的 我很快乐 为你流泪

你找到你的 幸福快乐 就不浪费

多幸运能遇到 最怀念的 你的拥抱

遗憾有多好 爱过的人忘不掉
