Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

Hate myself for loving you so much

Hate myself for loving you so much

Oh I hate myself for falling back in love

Oh I hate myself for falling back in love

Never been good at words I want to say

Never been good at words I want to say

I sing my love for you

I sing my love for you

I'll just let the music makes me love to you

I'll just let the music make me love you

曾經和你因工作一起遠飛

We once flew together for work

但我還未知心中有你

But I still didn't realize I held you in my heart

oh.wow oh ...

Oh wow oh...

仍為了別個她魄散魂離

Still lovesick for someone else, my soul is shattered

因她無法得到因此心已死

Because I can't have her, my heart has turned cold

我便自悲 不敢透氣

I drown in self-pity, afraid to breathe

已經苦得想死

Already suffering enough to want to die

惶論有天居然愛你

Fearing that one day I’d still love you

直到一天 共你相見

Until the day we finally meet

被我知你從上次

I knew from the last time

開始接觸 便已就似觸電

Being close to you felt like electric shock

猶如得到星光的加冕

Like crowned with starlight

我沒被討厭

I’m not disliked

多得有你 我終於有這天

Thanks to you, I finally have this day

多麼憎我太慢才識你

How I hated myself for taking so long to know you

我更加不想勉強地去親你

And I don’t want to force myself to kiss you

是你喜歡我 當然都愛你

You like me, so of course I love you

和她不敢去比

Can’t compare to her

仍舊答謝你 任你的眷戀

Still thank you for your affection

令我也有了生氣

It gave me life too

多麼憎我試著迷戀你

How I hated myself for trying to fall for you

我怕想擁抱你也為了出氣

Afraid that holding you would just be for venting

願我拋開過去一心愛你

Wishing I’d let go of the past to love you fully

忘掉她的氣味

Forget her scent

若我敢再記起 對不起了你

If I dare to remember again, I’m sorry for hurting you

如果 和你一早得到好結果

If from the start I’d received a good result with you

沒法明白單戀的痛楚

Couldn’t understand the pain of unrequited love

難道我樂意得到折磨

Do I actually enjoy this torment?

而不過 從我跟她苦戀的最初

From the beginning of my passion for her

縱沒成果 顛倒的我

Even without results, my crazy love

滿足比傷心多

Is more satisfying than sad

難道愛辛苦方似我

Could love be as painful as I am?

直到一天 共你相見

Until the day we finally meet

被我知你從上次

I knew from the last time

開始接觸 便已就似觸電

Being close to you felt like electric shock

猶如得到星光的加冕

Like crowned with starlight

我沒被討厭

I’m not disliked

多得有你 我終於有這天

Thanks to you, I finally have this day

多麼憎我太慢才識你

How I hated myself for taking so long to know you

我更加不想勉強地去親你

And I don’t want to force myself to kiss you

是你喜歡我 當然都愛你

You like me, so of course I love you

和她不敢再比

Can’t compare to her anymore

仍舊答謝你 任你的眷戀

Still thank you for your affection

令我也有了生氣

It gave me life too

Oh 終於得到了被愛oh wow oh ...

Oh finally, I’ve been loved, oh wow oh...

無論興不興奮 當天已不再

Whether excited or not, that day is gone

願你終於變了一生最愛

May you finally become your lifelong love

連我悲觀也改

Even my pessimism has changed

沒有舊人存在 放心給你愛

There’s no one from the past, rest assured I will love you

做人或者 不必要得到最想

In life, maybe you don’t need to get what you want most

如為快樂設想 就祝福我倆

If thinking of happiness, then bless us both

...
