头沾湿 无可避免
Head wet, unavoidable
伦敦总依恋雨点
London always clings to raindrops
乘早机 忍耐著呵欠
On the early flight, stifling yawns
完全为见你一面
All for just a glimpse of you
寻得到尘封小店
Finding the little shop that's been sealed tight
回不到相恋那天
Can't go back to the day we fell in love
灵气大概早被污染
The spirit has probably been polluted long ago
谁为了生活不变?
Who hasn’t changed for the sake of life?
越渴望见面 然后发现
The more I long to meet, then I discover
中间隔著那十年
There's a decade that separates us
我想见的笑脸 只有怀念
The smiling face I long to see is just a memory,
不懂怎去再聊天
I don’t know how to start a conversation again.
像我在往日还未抽烟
Like I was, back in the days before I smoked.
不知你怎么变迁
I wonder how you've changed.
似等了一百年 忽已明白
As if waiting a hundred years, suddenly it makes sense.
即使再见面 成熟地表演
Even if we meet again, let’s pretend we’ve matured.
不如不见
Perhaps it’s better not to meet.
寻得到尘封小店
Searching for that hidden little shop,
回不到相恋那天
But we can’t go back to that day of romance.
灵气大概早被污染
The spirit was likely long spoiled.
谁为了生活不变?
Who remains unchanged for the sake of life?
越渴望见面 然后发现
The more I long to meet you, the more I discover
中间隔著那十年
Those ten years stand in between us
我想见的笑脸 只有怀念
The smile I long to see is just a memory now
不懂怎去再聊天
I don't know how to chat like we used to
像我在往日还未抽烟
It's as if I haven't even smoked back then
不知你怎么变迁
I wonder how you've transformed
似等了一百年 忽已明白
Feels like I've waited a hundred years, now I understand
即使再见面 成熟地表演
Even if we meet again, putting on a mature show
不如不见
It's better not to see you at all
