我终失去你
I ultimately lose you
曲/词: 蔡国权 编: 苏德华
Lyrics/Music: Cai Guoquan, Arrangement: Su Dehua
宁愿我此刻放弃 宁愿承担一点点痛悲
I'd rather give up this moment, I'd rather bear a little pain and sorrow
我怕有日亲身望着你别离
I'm afraid one day I'll have to watch you leave in person
纵使今天的印记 多少伤痛我心理
Even if today's memories come with so much pain in my heart
但我知道已是不可再度亲你
I know it’s impossible to hold you close again
明白我终失去你 纵使此刻依旧一起
Understanding that I ultimately lose you, even if we are still together now
察觉你的心渐渐已远离
I sense your heart has gradually drifted away
也许不应该心死 偏偏这好胜心理
Maybe I shouldn't let my heart die, but this competitive spirit of mine
令我不可再度抓紧冷淡的你
Makes it impossible for me to hold onto the distant you
为何每天相会渐成乏味
Why does our daily meeting feel more tedious each day?
是否彼此之间已没有新的转机
Is there no new chance left between us anymore?
默默地望着你心中彷佛已布满着了伤悲
Silently looking at you, my heart seems filled with sorrow.
细雨绵绵零乱街灯中随风飞
Gentle rain drizzles, swirling in the streetlights' glow.
滴着泪像没法呼吸彷佛这里已没有空气
Tears drop like breaths, as if there's no air left to breathe.
我要远去祈望雨水冲走这段忆起
I want to wander far away, hoping the rain washes away these memories.
为何每天相会渐成乏味
Why does our daily meeting feel more tedious each day?
是否彼此之间已没有新的转机
Is there no new chance left between us anymore?
默默地望着你心中彷佛已布满着了伤悲
Silently looking at you, my heart seems filled with sorrow.
细雨绵绵零乱街灯中随风飞
Gentle rain drizzles, swirling in the streetlights' glow.
滴着泪像没法呼吸彷佛这里已没有空气
Tears drip down as if I can't breathe, as though there's no air left here.
我要远去祈望雨水冲走这段忆起
I wish to go far away, hoping the rain washes away this memory.
宁愿我此刻放弃 宁愿承担一点点痛悲
I'd rather give up this moment, I'd rather bear a little pain and sorrow.
我怕有日亲身望着你别离
I'm afraid that one day I'll watch you leave with my own eyes.
纵使今天的印记 多少伤痛我心理
Even though today's marks bring so much hurt within my heart.
但我知道已是不可再度亲你
But I know I can never hold you close again.
(但我不可再度抓紧冷淡的你)
(But I can no longer cling to the coldness of you.)
