[English]

When love is still brewing in the greenhouse

When only each other's faces are in our eyes, thinking we have all the time in the world

Like the most innocent child

I once thought that holding you tight would mean you'd always be by my side

Time is like the most turbulent waves

We are on the edge of a cliff, every step is difficult

But love is a wandering that doesn't look back

If my eyes run dry from crying, then I'll just sleep it off

The flower in the rock will bloom

You who left will come back

No matter how long the night is, tears will flow

I will never let go of your hands

The flower in the rock will bloom

The stubborn me will wait

A wait without regrets

Is my silent confession to you

...

Like sinking into an endless ocean

The ebb and flow in this bustling world has nothing to do with my pain

Stubbornness is a brave act that goes unrecognized

When the world repeatedly urges me to surrender, I have never lost hope

Missing you is like broken wings

Drifting on the road of memories, unable to escape the past

I have branded you in my heart

Tonight, being alone is not lonely

The flower in the rock will bloom

You who left will come back

No matter how long the night is, tears will flow

I will never let go of your hands

The flower in the rock will bloom

The stubborn me will wait

A wait without regrets

Is my craziest love for you

A wait without regrets

Because of love, a wait without regrets

The flower in the rock will bloom

You who left will come back

No matter how long the night is, tears will flow

I will never let go of your hands

The flower in the rock will bloom

The stubborn me will wait

A wait without regrets

Is my craziest love for you

...

[Chinese]

當愛還在溫室裡醞釀

當眼裡只有彼此的臉龐 以為來日方長

像最天真的孩子一樣

曾以為抱緊我那雙肩膀會永遠在身旁

时間像最洶湧的巨浪

我们在懸崖上 寸步也艱難

但爱是不回頭的流浪

雙眼若哭乾 就睡一場

岩石裡的花会開

離開的你會回來

黑夜再漫長 眼泪在流淌

緊握你的雙手絕不放

岩石裡的花會開

倔强的我會等待

無悔的等待

是我對你無聲的告白

像沉入不見底的海洋

繁鬧世界裡的潮落潮涨 與我痛癢無關

倔强是不被理解的勇敢

當世界一遍遍勸我投降 我卻不曾絕望

思念像被折斷的翅膀

流落回憶路上 飛不出過往

已把你烙印在我心上

今夜一個人也不孤單

岩石裡的花會開

離開的你會回來

黑夜再漫長 眼淚再流淌

緊握你的雙手絕不放

岩石裡的花會開

倔强的我會等待

無悔的等待

是我對你最瘋狂的愛

無悔的等待

因为愛 無悔的等待

岩石裡的花会开

離開的你會回來

黑夜再漫長 眼淚再流淌

緊握你的雙手絕不放

岩石裡的花會開

倔强的我會等待

無悔的等待

是我對你最瘋狂的愛
