[English]

I face this love, not just apologizing countless times

Only you don't mind at all, letting others talk

No matter how much slander and curses, I still persist

When I'm scared, you say I can do it

You care more about my setbacks than I do

Then you can't help but look up at the sky

Hoping for clear skies, of course, you can't change fate

But you still try despite knowing your limits

Making me hold back tears and start over

Who is too good to be true?

Who is wholeheartedly my shelter?

Smiling faintly

If I cry, cry harder than I do

Who forbids me from comforting? Only allows me to be at ease

So foolish to share my worries and troubles

Even if I'm clearly in the wrong

How can two feet strive forward, still trembling?

Who will regret when it gets dark? The dawn is too sensitive

Always longing for more guidance

After losing my way, looking at my own footprints

Learning how to live life well

And how to love others

Not caring where I'm trapped

I hope to hold on tightly

Letting you know, it doesn't matter at all

Filling in all responsibilities, repairing my determination

No longer letting my sky be gray

Wanting to try love in reverse

Grateful that you are still infinitely close to me

...

[Chinese]

我面對這份愛 不止抱歉萬次

唯獨你怎麼都不介意 閒話任人講

幾多詆毀咒罵 仍舊堅持

在我害怕之時 說我可以

你面對我受挫 比起我更在意

然後你禁不住糾結望向天

盼望放晴 當然你沒可能逆轉天意

但你不自量仍然去試

令我忍著淚重頭開始

誰好得太過份?

誰死心塌地作我護蔭?

淡淡然微笑著

若要哭 哭得比我狠

誰不准我慰問? 只准我放心

蠢到為我分憂解困

即使我明明有錯

一雙腳如何奮進 還在震

誰天黑會抱憾? 天光太敏感

總渴望有多些指引

迷途後 望向自己足印

學好怎過人生

和怎麼去愛人

才不管我在哪裡被困

但願牢牢抱著

讓你知 通通不要緊

填補所有責任 修補我決心

不再讓我天空灰暗

想反過來嘗試愛

感激你仍然與我 無限近
