你沉默 爱说不说
You’re silent, love speaks or stays mute
早知道 你在想些什么
Knew it early, what’s on your mind
不回头 我也晓得
No looking back, I understand
你又在偷偷跟著我
You're sneaking around after me again
耍帅到底有什么用
What's the point of trying to act cool?
装酷也不是好借口
Putting on a tough face isn’t a good excuse
快用眼神将我封锁
Quick, shut me out with your gaze
我试著不逃脱
I’m trying not to run away
I gotta know, I gotta know
I gotta know, I gotta know
你喜欢我各种的理由
You like me for all sorts of reasons
You gotta know, you gotta know
You gotta know, you gotta know
为你换上了新的口红
I’ve put on new lipstick just for you
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
对我好的人还有很多
There are many who treat me well
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
你对我的追求 让别人都退后
Your pursuit of me makes others step back
你沉默 爱说不说
You’re silent, wondering if you should speak
早知道 你在想些什么
If only I had known what you were thinking
不回头 我也晓得
I won’t look back, I know too well
你一天到晚都在跟著我
You follow me all day long
溜滑板追我的公车
Skating, chasing after my bus
随意贴也被你偷走
Even the casual touches you steal away
快点对我展开追求
Hurry up and show me your affection
我一定不逃脱
I won't run away for sure
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
对我好的人还有很多
There are many more who treat me well
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
你对我的追求 让别人都退后
Your pursuit of me makes others step back
耍帅到底有什么用
What's the point of trying to be cool?
装酷也不是好借口
Playing it tough isn't a good excuse either
快用眼神将我封锁
Quick, block me off with your gaze
我试著不逃脱（呜耶）
I try not to escape (Woo yeah)
I gotta know, I gotta know
I gotta know, I gotta know
你喜欢我各种的理由
All the reasons you like me
You gotta know, you gotta know
You gotta know, you gotta know
为你换上了新的口红
For you, I've put on new lipstick
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
对我好的人还有很多（耶耶）
There are many who treat me well (Yeah yeah)
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
你对我的追求 让别人都退后（呜呜）
Your pursuit of me makes others step back (Woo woo)
I gotta know, I gotta know
I gotta know, I gotta know
你喜欢我各种的理由
You like me for so many reasons
You gotta know, you gotta know
You gotta know, you gotta know
为你换上了新的口红
For you, I've put on a new shade of lipstick
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
对我好的人还有很多
There are many others who treat me well
You gotta know, you gotta show
You gotta know, you gotta show
你对我的追求 让别人都退后
Your pursuit of me makes others step back
