童年你与谁渡过 圣诗班中唱的歌
In childhood, who did you share it with, the songs sung in the choir?
再哼一哼可以么
Can you hum it again?
当时谁与你排著坐 白色恤衫灰裤子
Who sat beside you back then, in white shirts and gray pants?
再穿一穿可以么
Can you wear it again?
遗憾我当时年纪不可亲手拥抱你欣赏
Regret that back then my age couldn't hold you close and admire you.
童年便相识 余下日子多闪几倍光
We knew each other as children, may the remaining days shine even brighter.
谁让我倒流时光一起亲身跟你去分享
Who made me wish to turn back time, to share experiences with you?
能留下印象 阅览你家中每道墙
To leave an impression, to explore each wall in your home.
拿著你歌书 与你合唱
Holding your songbook, singing together with you.
从前你与谁路过 逛的公园有几多
In the past, who did you walk with, how many parks did we roam?
再走一走可以么
Can we take another walk?
当时谁对你凝望过 是否真的比我多
Back then, who gazed at you? Was it really more than I did?
再演一演可以么
Can we act it out once more?
遗憾我当时年纪不可亲手拥抱你欣赏
Regret that at that time, my age kept me from holding you close and appreciating you.
童年便相识 余下日子多闪几倍光
We met in childhood; the rest of our days shine brighter in every way.
谁让我倒流时光一起亲身跟你去分享
Who can turn back time so we can share the moments side by side?
遗憾印象 没有你家中那面墙
Regretful impressions, not a single wall in your home.
拿著你相簿
Holding your photo album,
从前拍过的相
The snapshots taken back in the day,
多么妒忌你昨日同过的窗
How jealous I am of the windows you shared your yesterday with.
早些看著你美丽模样
Looking at your beautiful form back then,
对你天真的赞赏
Innocently praising you,
遗憾我当时年纪不可亲手拥抱你欣赏
Regretting that at that time, my age stopped me from holding you close and admiring you.
童年便相识 余下日子多闪几倍光
We met in childhood, and the remaining days shine with more brilliance.
谁让我倒流时光一起亲身跟你去分享
Who could turn back time so we could share these moments together?
遗憾印象 没有你家中那面墙
Regrettable memories, lacking that wall in your home.
拿著你相簿
Holding your photo album,
从头细看 你六岁当天 已是我偶像
Looking closely from the beginning, you were already my idol at six.
