爱的样子像什么?
What does love look like?
几亿万人都不懂
Billions of people still don't understand.
你今天在做什么?
What are you doing today?
你是怎样回忆我?
How do you remember me?
故事书写得很美
The story is written so beautifully.
谈爱情的人类总是要掉眼泪
Those who talk about love always shed tears.
可是爱比逻辑厉害
But love is stronger than logic.
我们都要自由 也要彼此的未来 这好奇怪
We all want freedom and each other's future, how strange.
结局的状态被时间吹歪
The ending gets distorted by the passage of time.
很久很久之后会把来龙和去脉写下来
After a long, long time, I'll write down the beginning and the end.
我们会来读爱这本书
We will come to read this book of love
怎样才会幸福? 爱谁清楚?
How can we find happiness? Who truly knows love?
两颗心在纪录 从热到冷 多辛苦
Two hearts recording it all, from warm to cold, how hard it is
Baby
我们会来读爱这本书
We will come to read this book of love
哪个人先结束? 爱好残酷
Which person ends it first? Love is so cruel
到分开那一天 我才真正的领悟
It wasn't until the day we parted that I truly understood
莫非你也孤独? 耶
Could it be that you're lonely too? Yeh
爱加恨等于什么? (你告诉我)
What does love plus hate equal? (You tell me)
你用多久忘了我? (忘不了我)
How long did it take you to forget me? (Cannot forget me)
读后心得给了谁?
Whom did the reflections go to?
反正是在几年内 总是会有点醉
Anyway, within a few years, there will always be a bit of intoxication.
不是爱比逻辑厉害
It’s not that love is stronger than logic.
我们都要自由 也要彼此的未来 这好奇怪
We all want freedom, and our future together, how strange it is.
结局的状态被时间吹歪
The ending's state gets distorted by time.
很久很久之后会把来龙和去脉写下来 喔
A long, long time later, I will write down what led to this and where it goes, oh.
我们会来读爱这本书
We will come to read this book of love.
怎样才会幸福? 爱谁清楚?
How do we find happiness? Who really knows whom to love?
两颗心在纪录 从热到冷 多辛苦
Two hearts recording, from warmth to cold, how hard it is.
Baby
我们会来读爱这本书
We'll come to read this book of love.
哪个人先结束? 爱好残酷
Which person ends first? Love is so cruel.
到分开那一天 我才真正的领悟
Only on the day we part do I truly understand.
莫非你也孤独? (莫非你也孤独?) 呜耶
Could it be you're lonely too? (Could it be you're lonely too?) Ooh yeah.
呜 喔喔喔喔喔
Ooh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
我们会来读爱这本书
We'll come to read this book of love.
怎样才会幸福? 爱谁清楚?
How can one find happiness? Who knows love clearly?
两颗心在纪录 从热到冷 多辛苦
Two hearts recording from warm to cold, how hard it is.
Baby
我们会来读爱这本书
We'll come to read this book of love.
哪个人先结束? 爱好残酷
Which one will end first? Love is so cruel.
到分开那一天 我才真正的领悟
It wasn't until the day we parted that I truly understood.
莫非你也孤独?
Could it be that you are lonely too?
