黎明
Dawn
我等不到你
I can't wait for you
(「你是否天使」国语版)
(Are You an Angel? Mandarin Version)
我等不到你
I can't wait for you
一颗心暗自哭泣
A heart quietly weeps
悲伤的眼睛流涟在梦里
Sad eyes flow tears in dreams
我在你梦里
I’m in your dreams
望著你沉默不语
Watching you in silence
是否忘记 我们的约定
Have you forgotten our promise?
我等不到你
I can't wait for you
一颗心要放在哪里
Where should a heart be placed?
站在人群里要往哪里去
In the crowd, where should I go?
我等不到你
I can't wait for you.
一个人叹息
Sighing all alone.
躲在回忆里 拥抱著你
Hiding in memories, embracing you.
想起你让我心疼不已
Thinking of you fills my heart with pain.
错过你自己也不相信
Missing you, even I can't believe it.
喔!我的心
Oh! My heart.
寂寞一生我也愿意
I'd be willing to live a lonely life.
也许在梦里才能让我爱你
Perhaps in my dreams, I can love you.
我等不到你
I can't wait for you
一棵心暗自哭泣
A heart quietly weeps
站在人群里要往哪里去
In the crowd, where do I go?
我等不到你
I can't wait for you
一个人叹息
A sigh escapes me
躲在黑夜里 拥抱回忆
Hiding in the darkness, embracing memories
