最好不過 – Bilingual Lyrics Chinese/English

Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

叮囑我小心 千句萬句

Remind me to be careful, countless words of advice

看顧在身邊 一歲又一歲

Watch over what's beside me, year after year

生長於小堡壘 是我仍陶醉

Growing up in a small fortress, I still feel enchanted

愉快在於 簡單喝汽水

Joy is in the simple pleasure of drinking soda

走出這溫室 奔向夢想追

Step out of this greenhouse, chase after your dreams

風雨下濕身 走到肉身都破碎

Through rain and wind, soaking wet, my body could break apart

人大了為何憔悴 愉快為何減退

Why do I look tired after growing up? Why does happiness fade?

太過累 偏偏收到來自你掌心的汽水

So tired, yet I still receive a soda from your palm

餘生都不會掉低我 全因有你 荊棘困難撐得過

I’ll never fall behind in life, all because of you—through thorns and hardships, we endure

當宇宙逆轉過 家裡仍像當初

When the universe turns upside down, our home still feels just like back then

磨練過 勞累過 回家最好不過

We've been through hardships and fatigue, but coming home is the best

...

...

當我又出走 從來沒追究

Whenever I go away again, I never blame anyone

當軟弱灰心 誰人像好友

When I feel weak or discouraged, who else but my good friend

即使我事事犯錯 體恤我亦肯定我

Even if I make mistakes, you understand and believe in me

安撫我 開心簡單來做我 不必想太多

Comfort me, keep things simple, just be myself, no need to overthink

餘生都不會掉低我 全因有你 荊棘困難撐得過

I’ll never fall behind in life, all because of you—through thorns and hardships, we endure

當宇宙逆轉過 家裡仍像當初

When the universe turns upside down, our home still feels just like back then

磨練過 勞累過 回家最好不過

We've been through hardships and fatigue, but coming home is the best

...

...

餘生都不會掉低我 全因有你 荊棘困難撐得過

I’ll never fall behind in life, all because of you—through thorns and hardships, we endure

當宇宙逆轉過 家裡仍像當初

When the universe turns upside down, our home still feels just like back then

流淚過 沉澱過 回家最好不過

Cried and settled down, coming home is the best

...

...
