若是爱已经多冰冻 这夜何必来相送
If love has turned to ice, why bid farewell this night?
何必 何必 何必
Why bother, why bother, why bother?
不必有妳和我聚散中相逢
There's no need for us to meet amidst partings.
遗下多少的爱甜美又痛
Leaving behind so much love, sweet yet painful.
若是爱早经给操纵 却又何必留心痛
If love has long been manipulated, why dwell on the pain?
何必 何必 何必
Why bother, why bother, why bother?
彼此爱过回到梦里可相同
Having loved each other, can we return to the same dream?
情是多不经意难以自控
Love is often careless, hard to control.
能相爱至死 怎会又有别离?
If we can love till death, how can there be a farewell?
谁不再相信又猜忌
Who no longer believes and harbors doubts?
要知俩心可有完全绝对
To know if two hearts can be completely absolute,
相恋总有缺撼聚散一生总有痛悲
Being in love always has its ups and downs, life brings its pain and sorrow.
如恋爱已死只有步上别离
If love has died, then it's only a step towards parting.
寻独行自由的天地
Seeking a solitary walk in the freedom of the world.
纵使有天一切完全忘记
Even if one day everything is completely forgotten,
即使不再见面亦会一生一世也想妳
Even if we never meet again, I'll think of you for a lifetime.
若是爱早经给操纵 却又何必留心痛
If love has long been manipulated, why bother with the heartache?
何必 何必 何必
Why bother, why bother, why bother?
彼此爱过回到梦里可相同
Having loved each other, we can return to the dream and be the same.
情是多不经意难以自控
Feelings are often unintentional and hard to control.
能相爱至死 怎会又有别离?
How can there be parting when love lasts until death?
谁不再相信又猜忌
Who doesn't stop believing and starts to doubt?
要知俩心可有完全绝对
To know if two hearts can be completely absolute.
相恋总有缺撼聚散一生总有痛悲
In love, there are always ups and downs; a life filled with pain and sorrow.
如恋爱已死只有步上别离
If love is truly dead, only then do we walk towards parting.
寻独行自由的天地
Seeking a solitary freedom in this vast world.
纵使有天一切完全忘记
Even if one day, everything is completely forgotten.
即使不再见面亦会一生一世也想妳
Even if we never meet again, I'll always think of you for a lifetime.
能相爱至死 怎会又有别离?
How can there be parting when love lasts until death?
如失去所爱别痛悲
If missing your love brings pain, just don't feel sorrow.
要知俩心可有完全绝对
To know if two hearts can be completely absolute
相恋总有缺撼或会他朝不再记起
In love, there are always shakes, or perhaps one day we'll forget
如恋爱已死只有步上别离
If love is dead, all that's left is to step into farewell
寻独行自由的天地
Searching for a lonely path in a world of freedom
纵使有天一切完全忘记
Even if one day everything is completely forgotten
即使不再见面亦会一生一世也想妳
Even if we never meet again, I will always think of you, for a lifetime
能相爱至死 怎会又有别离?
How could love last until death, yet still there be goodbye?
如失去所爱别痛悲
If losing the beloved, don’t feel sorrow
纵使有天一切完全忘记
Even if one day everything is completely forgotten
即使不再见面亦会一生一世也想妳
Even if we never meet again, I will always think of you, for a lifetime
若是爱早给操纵,却又何必再心痛
If love is meant to be controlled, then why must we suffer again?
