Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

你一直說的那個公園已經拆了

The park you kept talking about has already been torn down.

還記得盪著鞦韆日子就飛起來

I still remember the days when swinging on the swing made me fly high.

漫漫的下午陽光都在臉上撒野

The afternoon sun was wild all over my face.

你那傻氣 我真是想念

Your silly ways, I truly miss them.

那時候小小的你還沒學會嘆氣

Back then, little you hadn't learned to sigh yet.

誰又會想到他們現在喊我女王

Who would have thought now they call me queen?

你哈哈笑的樣子倒是一點沒變

Your laughter hasn't changed a bit.

時間走了 誰還在等呢

Time has passed, who’s still waiting?

這杯咖啡忘了加糖

I forgot to add sugar to this coffee.

真不是我那麼傷感

It's really not that sad on my part.

世界太複雜 你說單純很難

The world is too complicated; you say simplicity is hard.

我當然都明白

Of course, I understand all that.

可是呀只有你曾陪我在最初的地方

But only you used to accompany me to the very beginning.

只有你才能了解我要的夢從來不大

Only you could understand that my dreams were never big.

我們沒有在一起至少還像情侶一樣

We may not be together anymore, but at least we still act like lovers.

我痛的瘋的傷的在你面前哭得最慘

I cried the hardest and hurt the most in front of you.

我知道你也不能帶我回到那個地方

I know you can’t take me back to that place anymore.

你說你現在很好而且喜歡回憶很長

You said you're doing well now and enjoy long memories.

我們沒有在一起至少還像家人一樣

We may not be together, but at least we still care like family.

總是遠遠關心遠遠分享

Always caring from afar, always sharing from afar.

...

...

那條路走呀走呀走呀總要回家

Walking that path, walking and walking, eventually I have to go back home.

兩隻手握著晃呀晃呀捨不得放

Holding my hands, swinging, reluctant to let go.

你不知道吧後來後來我都在想

You probably don’t know, but later I kept thinking,

跟你走吧 管它去哪呀

Let’s go with you, no matter where it leads.

這杯咖啡忘了加糖

I forgot to add sugar to this coffee.

真不是我那麼傷感

It's really not that sad on my part.

世界太複雜 你說單純很難

The world is too complicated; you say simplicity is hard.

我當然都明白

Of course, I understand all that.

可是呀只有你曾陪我在最初的地方

But only you used to accompany me to the very beginning.

只有你才能了解我要的夢從來不大

Only you could understand that my dreams were never big.

我們沒有在一起至少還像情侶一樣

We may not be together anymore, but at least we still act like lovers.

我痛的瘋的傷的在你面前哭得最慘

I cried the hardest and hurt the most in front of you.

I know you can’t take me back to that place anymore.

You said you're doing well now and enjoy long memories.

我們沒有在一起至少還像家人一樣

We may not be together, but at least we still care like family.

總是遠遠關心遠遠分享

Always caring from afar, always sharing from afar.

We may not be together anymore, but at least we're friends.

你遠遠的關心 其實更長

You care from afar, and that’s even longer.
