往事如风风会乱
The past is like the wind, a chaotic breeze
乱在离别的港湾
Chaos in the harbor of goodbyes
趟过脚印的沙滩
Wading through footprints on the sand
如今仍好看
Still beautiful to this day
只剩残缺的羁绊
Only the remnants of a bond remain
如同疆场曾纷乱
Like a battlefield once chaotic
溃不成军隐青山
Trampled troops hide in the green hills
英雄的果断
The hero's resolve
我不爱你只是不爱你
I don't love you, it's just that I don't love you
拗口一句多么有深意
How deep a meaning in this awkward line
我很想你只是很想你
I miss you so much, just miss you.
浅浅一句略带有诗意
A simple line that carries a hint of poetry.
时间像谜又像诗
Time is like a riddle, like a poem.
猜过天涯猜咫尺
Guessing the distance of the world, guessing the closeness.
一世浪漫谁人知
Who knows the romance of a lifetime?
未来未来迟
Future, future, where are you?
往事终究难放肆
Past events are ultimately hard to release.
终究两字多讽刺
In the end, 'ultimately' is full of irony.
再看风平浪静的样子
Looking again at the calm and serene view.
与你好相似
So much like you.
我不爱你只是不爱你
I don't love you, I just don't love you
拗口一句多么有深意
A tongue-twisting line, so full of meaning
我很想你只是很想你
I miss you a lot, I just miss you a lot
有谁能懂其中的歉意
Who can understand the sorrow behind it?
我不爱你
I don't love you
拗口一句
A tongue-twisting line
我很想你
I miss you
有谁能懂
Who can understand
