[English]

The day we broke up

I watched you walk away

All our promises turned into a full stop

I stay alone in this empty room

Love and pain are tangled in my heart

Our love has come to this point

Maybe I was a little too selfish

If love could start over

I would give up everything for you

Nights I Think of You

I wish you could be by my side

I don't know if you can still change for me

Nights I Think of You

Please let me love you again

Bring our love back to the start

...

[Chinese]

分手那天

我看著你走遠

所有承諾化成了句點

獨自守在空蕩的房間

愛與痛在我心裡糾纏

我們的愛走到了今天

是不是我太自私了一點

如果愛可以重來

我會為你放棄一切

想你的夜

多希望你能在我身邊

不知道你心裡還能否為我改變

想你的夜

求你讓我再愛你一遍

讓愛再回到原點

分手那天

我看著你走遠

所有承諾化成了句點

獨自守在空蕩的房間

愛與痛在我心裡糾纏

我們的愛走到了今天

是不是我太自私了一點

如果愛可以重來

我會為你放棄一切

想你的夜

多希望你能在我身邊

不知道你心裡還能否為我改變

想你的夜

求你讓我再愛你一遍

讓愛再回到原點

想你的夜

多希望你能在我身邊

不知道你心裡還能否為我改變

想你的夜

求你讓我再愛你一遍

讓愛再回到原點
