Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I don't love this boring world

I only cherish your eyes and brows

If you have time too

Come with me to see all these sights

Wanting to hold your left hand, but my face turned red

Wanting to embrace your left shoulder, but I hesitated

Walking with you down the bustling streets

How to continue writing the story

Forgive me for being too clueless about romance

I don't love this boring world

I only cherish your eyes and brows

If you have time too

Come with me to see all these sights

Writing a few pages of poems and lines of vows for you

Several long nights and times of missing you

Your turn around makes me sleepless again

Writing for you the wind of last night and moon of tonight

The love from past lives and the fate of this life

That snowfall with you until we're old

I don't love this boring world

I only cherish your eyes and brows

If you have time too

Come with me to see all these sights

Writing a few pages of poems and lines of vows for you

Several long nights and times of missing you

Your turn around makes me sleepless again

Writing for you the wind of last night and moon of tonight

The love from past lives and the fate of this life

That snowfall with you until we're old

[Chinese]

我不爱无聊人间

只偏爱你眉眼

如果你也有时间

陪我把这风景都看遍

想要牵住你的左手却红了脸

想要搂紧你的左肩却又胆怯

陪你走到繁华的街

如何能把故事续写

原谅我太笨风情不解

我不爱无聊人间

只偏爱你眉眼

如果你也有时间

陪我把这风景都看遍

为你写几页诗篇几行誓言

几个长夜几次想念

你的转身让我又失眠

为你写昨夜的风今宵的月

前世的恋今生的签

和你白头的那一场雪

我不爱无聊人间

只偏爱你眉眼

如果你也有时间

陪我把这风景都看遍

为你写几页诗篇几行誓言

几个长夜几次想念

你的转身让我又失眠

为你写昨夜的风今宵的月

前世的恋今生的签

和你白头的那一场雪
