  1. 午餐 昏沉

    Brunch makes me more and more drowsy,

  2. 咖啡不了 苦涩

    Coffee can’t revive me, leaving me with a bitter mouthful.

  3. 低头车厢开门

    Bowing my head, I wait for the train doors to open,

  4. 站著几个 曾经我们个人

    Standing here with a few others, once we stood as just two.

  5. 这个过份认真人生 怀念曾经天真

    This overly serious life makes me long for the days of innocence,

  6. 习惯分分合合

    I've gotten used to breaking up and making up.

  7. 每次生日快乐 愿望发生

    Every time we sing happy birthday, old wishes remain unfulfilled,

  8. 几个新的

    Now I need to think of a few new ones,

  9. 回忆只剩下局部

    Memories are left in fragments,

  10. 就算人生

    Even if I could rewind my life with you, it wouldn’t come back.

  11. 那时环游世界不再做了

    Back then, the dream of traveling the world is no longer pursued.

  12. 只要依靠

    As long as I lean on you.

  13. 晚餐还是一个

    Dinner is still just for one.

  14. 曾经坐在微笑

    You once sat here, smiling, letting me sip your hot soup.

  15. 想到快乐 真的知足

    Thinking of it brings me joy, I'm truly content, it's enough.

  16. 想念不小心跳针 担心 过去

    Missing you has become a broken record, but don’t worry, it’s all in the past.

  17. 低头车厢开门

    I bow my head, waiting for the compartment door to open.

  18. 站著几个 曾经我们个人

    Standing among a few, it used to be just the two of us.

  19. 这个过份认真人生 怀念曾经天真

    This overly serious life makes me long for our innocent days.

  20. 习惯分分合合

    I've gotten used to the ups and downs.

  21. 每次生日快乐 愿望发生

    Every time I sing 'Happy Birthday', old wishes remain unfulfilled

  22. 想不到什么新的值得

    I can't think of anything new that's worth it

  23. 回忆只剩下局部

    Memories have become mere fragments

  24. 就算人生

    Even if I rewind life with you, what can be lost can never be regained

  25. 那时环游世界不再做了

    That dream of traveling the world is not one I have anymore

  26. 只要依靠

    As long as I lean on

  27. 晚餐还是一个

    Dinner is still a solitary affair

  28. 曾经坐在第几都不记得

    I can't remember which meal you sat with me at

  29. 想到快乐 真的知足

    Thinking of you brings such joy, I'm truly content, that's enough

  30. 偶而想起 自言自语 点点滴滴

    Occasionally I think of you, talking to myself, piece by piece

  31. 幸福秘密 享受不知情

    Happiness is a secret, enjoyed yet unaware.

  32. 夜里重播黑白片 想起什么人生箴言?

    Who plays old black-and-white films at night, what life's advice do they remind me of?

  33. 感激 已经 已经

    I am grateful, already going with the flow, already going with the flow.

  34. 回忆只剩下局部

    Memories are left only in fragments.

  35. 就算人生

    Even if I rewind life with you, can I find what was lost?

  36. 那时环游世界如果做了

    If the dream of traveling the world could be dreamt again,

  37. 没有可能?

    Is it even possible?

  38. 晚餐还是一个

    Dinner is still a solitary affair.

  39. 曾经坐在一份碗盘你的

    You once sat here, this other plate was yours.

  40. 想到快乐 真的知足

    Just thinking of it brings me joy, I truly feel fulfilled, it's enough.

  41. 想念不小心跳针 担心 过去

    Missing you, I accidentally repeated my heart, don't worry, it's all in the past.

  42. 时间不小心 在意 过去

    Time has inadvertently come to a standstill, don't mind it, it will pass.
