为何要有周末 强迫我没事作
Why must there be weekends, forcing me to do nothing?
时间一但变多 就会有空想起寂寞
Once time expands, I can't help but recall my loneliness.
想约谁出门遛遛 恋爱中的不肯理我
Want to invite someone out for a stroll, but those in love won't notice me.
而单身的又怕她想太多
And the singles fear they might overthink things.
1个2个3个4个 全都只是女的朋友
One, two, three, four, they're all just female friends.
5个6个7个8个 没有一个属于我
Five, six, seven, eight, not a single one belongs to me.
像个圆画到一半 我还缺另一半
Like a circle drawn halfway, I'm still missing my other half.
半边的太阳 半座的天堂 快乐背后空荡荡
Half a sun, half a paradise, happiness feels so hollow behind it all.
被上帝完成一半 我还缺另一半
Half-finished by God, I'm still missing my other half.
到底哪颗心 才有对的形状 和我拼成圆满
Which heart truly has the right shape to fit and complete my circle?
我信总有一天 我的爱会出现
I believe that one day, my love will appear
只是有些埋怨 为什么不就在今天
But there's some regret, why can't it be today?
如果孤单是考验 也不该考这么多年
If loneliness is a test, it shouldn't last for so many years
没人能想念日子多乏味
No one can reminisce over days that are so dull
1个2个3个4个 全都只是女的朋友
One, two, three, four, all just female friends
5个6个7个8个 没有一个属于我
Five, six, seven, eight, not a single one belongs to me
像个圆画到一半 我还缺另一半
Like a circle painted halfway, I'm still missing my other half
半边的太阳 半座的天堂 快乐背后空荡荡
A half sun, a half paradise, joy is hollow behind it all
被上帝完成一半 我还缺另一半
Halfway completed by God, I'm still missing my other half
到底哪颗心 才有对的形状 和我拼成圆满
Which heart truly has the right shape to complete me?
像个圆画到一半 我还缺另一半
Like a circle drawn halfway, I'm still missing my other half
半边的太阳 半座的天堂 快乐背后空荡荡
Half of the sun, half of paradise, joy feels so empty behind it all
被上帝完成一半 我还缺另一半
Halfway completed by the hand of God, I'm still missing my other half
到底哪颗心 才有对的形状 和我拼成圆满
Which heart has the right shape, to fit with mine and make us whole
