地震的夜晚 赶来 作伴
On the night of the earthquake, you rushed in to keep me company
重感冒的凌晨 煮著稀饭
In the early hours of a heavy cold, cooking congee
这个让我哭过的人多么温暖
How warm is the one who has made me cry
我感谢我们不完美 却坦白自然
I thank our imperfections, yet so honest and true
我们从牵手放手又牵手 走过来
We’ve walked together from hand-holding to letting go and back again
愿意为更懂你的心 spending all my life
Willing to spend my whole life to understand your heart
每当情绪像海 你只抱我 从不催我讲出来
Whenever emotions rise like waves, you just hold me, never press me to speak
我就明白 你是我的依赖
I understand that you are my support
地震的夜晚 赶来 作伴
On the night of the earthquake, you rushed in to keep me company
重感冒的凌晨 煮著稀饭
In the early hours of a heavy cold, cooking congee
这个让我哭过的人多么温暖
How warm is the one who made me cry.
我感谢我们不完美 却坦白自然
I am grateful for our imperfections, so honest and true.
我们从期待失落又期待 走过来
We walked through hope and disappointment, and back to hope again.
愿意为一起看未来 spending all my life
Willing to spend all my life together, looking toward the future.
每当变成习惯 生活太淡 总有感动的意外
Whenever life becomes a habit, it feels too bland, yet there are always unexpected touches.
我就明白 你是我的依赖
That's when I realize, you are my support.
就算说幸福都由老天 在管
Even if happiness is controlled by fate,
只借不送 我还是不肯还 用真爱耍赖
I still won't return, borrowing without giving back, playing coy with true love.
我们从日出日落又日出 走过来
We walked through sunrises and sunsets, and back to sunrises again.
愿意为爱你去忙碌 spending all my life
Willing to busy myself loving you, spending all my life.
每当命运变换 需要狂欢 需要流泪 你都在
Whenever fate shifts, needing a celebration, needing tears, you are there,
我就明白 你是我的依赖
I understand then, you are my reliance,
我们明白 爱是互相依赖
We both know, love is mutual support.
