就到终站了 沿路拍一辑彩照
We've reached the last stop, capturing colorful memories along the way.
和旁人谈笑 说到那次与你去看浪潮
Chatting with others, reminiscing about that time we watched the waves together.
情原来浓了 说到这次我要四处傲游
Love, it turns out, has deepened; talking about how I want to roam around proudly this time.
一身轻装 偏偏不要
Lightly packed, yet I don't want to leave behind.
当天给我的风衣 和合照
The windbreaker you gifted me that day, along with the photos.
来到小城了 肥白鸽相当好笑
Arrived in the small town, the pudgy white pigeons are quite funny.
和途人谈笑 说到那次你要送我字条
Laughing with passersby, remembering that time you wanted to give me a note.
情原来完了 说到这次我要四处傲游
Love has come to an end; talking about how I want to roam around proudly this time.
风光山色 多么娇俏
The scenery is breathtaking, oh so charming.
参观高壮的风车 和候鸟
Visiting the grand windmills and the migratory birds.
和别人说笑 但是我依稀更寂廖
Laughing with others, yet I feel all the more alone,
和别人说笑 但是我知你眼眉调
Laughing with others, but I see the signals in your brow,
疲倦了 到夜了
Tired now, it's late at night,
再到清吧中 高叫 谁都不要
At the lounge again, yelling, 'Nobody should come near',
生啤更重要 我面对过路客
A cold beer is what's important, as I face the passersby,
说一说心中心中多悲伤 还在笑
Speaking of heartaches, there's so much sadness inside, but still I smile,
就快清场了 和熟客吹嘘生肖
The place is about to close, bragging with regulars about our zodiac,
如孩童微笑 说到那次看相太过无聊
Like a child, smiling, reminiscing about that boring fortune-telling day,
情仍然完了 我再说笑与你去到尽头
Love has truly ended, and yet I still joke with you until the very end,
今天今天 单单需要
Today, today, all I truly need.
一张高贵的金卡和护照
A noble gold card and a passport
和别人说笑 但是我依稀更寂廖
Laughing with others, yet I still feel more alone
和别人说笑 但是我知你眼眉调
Laughing with others, but I know your subtle signs
疲倦了 到夜了
Tired now, it's nighttime
再到清吧中 高叫 谁都不要
Once more in the bar, shouting, 'No one matters'
生啤更重要 我面对过路客
Draft beer matters more, as I face the passersby
说一说心中心中多悲伤 还在笑
Speak of the sadness deep in my heart, still smiling
和别人说笑 但是我依稀更寂廖
Laughing with others, yet I still feel more alone
和别人说笑 但是我知你眼眉调
Laughing with others, but I know your subtle signs
疲倦了 到夜了
Tired now, it's nighttime
再到清吧中 高叫 谁都不要
Once again in the bar, I shout, 'No one should come'
生啤更重要 我面对过路客
Draft beer matters more, I face passing strangers
说一说心中心中多悲伤 还在笑
Let me speak of the sadness deep in my heart, still smiling
今天更重要 我望向 美丽处
Today matters more, I gaze upon the beauty ahead
有一扎七色七色郁金香 还在笑
There’s a bunch of seven-colored tulips, still smiling
