[English]

Restlessly wandering

I thought I’d always be like this

Flying alone in the starry sky

Asking myself what dream I’m chasing

Faintly feeling a kind of power

Leading me to be by your side

In the darkness, only you shine for me

Love is like two stars shining bright

Merging your heart into mine

No longer empty, never apart

Leaving all orbits behind with me

Floating in love, gliding across the most beautiful sky

Never forgetting the heart that first loved you

Crossing time and space, still the only one in my heart

On this lonely planet, I’m not abandoned by love

You are my shining star

I’ll follow you forever

Restlessly wandering

I thought I’d always be like this

Flying alone in the starry sky

Asking myself what dream I’m chasing

Faintly feeling a kind of power

Leading me to be by your side

In the darkness, only you shine for me

Love is like two stars shining bright

Merging your heart into mine

No longer empty, never apart

Leaving all orbits behind with me

Floating in love, gliding across the most beautiful sky

Never forgetting the heart that first loved you

Crossing time and space, still the only one in my heart

On this lonely planet, I’m not abandoned by love

You are my shining star

I’ll follow you forever

Never forgetting the heart that first loved

Crossing time and space, forever it’s you who comes for me

On this lonely planet, I’m not abandoned by love

You are my shining star

I’ll follow you forever

That’s the happiness we want

The love we desire

Forever

Forever

Shall we watch together?

Sure

[Chinese]

不停在游荡

我以为我一直都这样

在星空中我孤独的飞翔

问自己在追寻什么幻想

隐约有种力量

牵引著我到你身旁

黑暗中只有你为我闪亮

爱就像两颗星发出了光芒

把你的心融入我的心中

再也不会空虚不分离

和我一起从所有的轨道脱离

飘浮爱情里 滑过最美的天际

从没有忘记那最初爱你的心

越过了时空还是我心中唯一

在孤独的星球我没有被爱遗弃

You are my shining star

I’ll follow you forever

不停在游荡

我以为我一直都这样

在星空中我孤独的飞翔

问自己在追寻什么幻想

隐约有种力量

牵引著我到你身旁

黑暗中只有你为我闪亮

爱就像两颗星发出了光芒

把你的心融入我的心中

再也不会空虚不分离

和我一起从所有的轨道脱离

飘浮爱情里 滑过最美的天际

从没有忘记那最初爱你的心

越过了时空还是我心中唯一

在孤独的星球我没有被爱遗弃

You are my shining star

I’ll follow you forever

从没有忘记那最初相爱的心

越过时空为我而来永远是你

在孤独的星球我没有被爱遗弃

You are my shining star

I’ll follow you forever

那是我们想要的幸福

要的爱情

Forever

Forever

要不要一起看

好啊
