我来到你的城市 走过你来时的路
I came to your city, walked the path you once took.
想像著没我的日子 你是怎样的孤独
Imagining the days without me, how lonely would you feel?
拿著你给的照片 熟悉的那一条街
Holding the photo you gave me, on that familiar street.
只是没了你的画面 我们回不到那天
It's just that without your presence, we can't go back to that day.
你会不会忽然的出现在街角的咖啡店?
Will you suddenly appear in the café at the street corner?
我会带著笑脸 挥手寒暄 和你坐著聊聊天
I would greet you with a smile, wave hello, and sit down to chat.
我多么想和你见一面 看看你最近改变
How I long to see you, to catch a glimpse of your recent changes.
不再去说从前 只是寒喧
No more talking about the past, just casual exchanges.
对你说一句 只是说一句 "好久不见"
To say just one thing to you, simply say, 'It's been a while.'
拿著你给的照片 熟悉的那一条街
Holding the photo you gave me, on that familiar street.
只是没了你的画面 我们回不到那天
It's just that without your presence, we can't return to that day.
你会不会忽然的出现在街角的咖啡店?
Will you suddenly appear at the café on the corner?
我会带著笑脸 挥手寒暄 和你坐著聊聊天
I'll greet you with a smile, waving and chatting, sitting down to have a talk.
我多么想和你见一面 看看你最近改变
Oh, how I wish to see you again, to witness your recent changes.
不再去说从前 只是寒喧
No more reminiscing about the past, just a friendly greeting.
对你说一句 只是说一句 "好久不见"
To you, I’ll say just one thing, just say, 'Long time no see.'
