懸日 – Bilingual Lyrics Chinese/English

• By: 田馥甄

Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

黃昏宣告著 今天已死亡

Dusk declares today has died

淡去的光陰 是我的戰場

Fading time is my battlefield

重遇在熱絡的市集

Reunited at the lively market

我很喜歡你的她

I really like her

多配你啊

You should be with her

...

...

是真的開心 不是在作假

I'm truly happy, not pretending

沒有煙硝 互動健康

No smoke or fire, healthy interactions

趕緊拿出我的手機

Quickly taking out my phone

也讓你看看我的他

So you can see my him

不介意的話

If you don’t mind

落下 同一顆太陽

Falling under the same sun

有什麼特別的嗎

Is there anything special?

...

...

你還不是一樣

You're the same

溫暖卻停在遠方

Warm but distant

對峙著不可能的愛情

Facing an impossible love

也該像懸日那樣

You should let it fall, like the sunset

讓它落下

Let it set

...

...

她刻意放空自己

She deliberately spaces out

想留點時間讓我們

Wants to leave some time for us

再說說話

To talk again

我像在愚弄自己

I feel like fooling myself

演哪出破綻百出的

Acting out my many flaws

心胸寬大

With a generous heart

你不忘調侃自己

You remind yourself not to forget

不夠好卻總是有人

Though not perfect, someone always cares

為你牽掛

Worried about you again

我又被回憶波及

I'm caught up in memories

心怎會這樣不強壯

How can my heart not be strong?

落下 同一顆太陽

Let it fall, same sun

有什麼特別的嗎

Is there anything special?

你還不是一樣

You're still the same

溫暖卻停在遠方

Warm but distant

對峙著不可能的愛情

Facing impossible love

也該像懸日那樣

Should let it fall, like the sunset

讓它落下

Let it fall

讓它落下

Let it fall

讓我放下

Let me let go

我沒放下

I haven't let go

我想放下

I want to let go

...

...
