是你吗 手执鲜花的一个
Is it you, holding fresh flowers?
你我曾在梦里 暗中相约在这夏
You and I once met in dreams, secretly promised under this summer.
承诺站在夕照后 斜阳别你渐离去
Promises stand behind the evening glow, as the slanting sun slowly departs from you.
亦会不归家 期待我吗
Would you not come home? Do you wait for me?
是你吗 能否轻轻转身吗
Is it you? Could you gently turn around?
盼你会来静听 我的心里面说话
I long for you to come and quietly listen, as my heart speaks.
每天我衷心祝祷 祈求夏季快来到
Every day I sincerely pray, wishing for summer to arrive quickly.
让这么一刻 燃亮爱吧
Let's make this moment ignite love.
I LOVE YOU 你会否听见吗
I LOVE YOU, can you hear me?
你会否也象我 秒秒等待遥远仲夏
Do you wait like I do, second by second, for the distant midsummer?
I LOVE YOU 你不敢相信吗
I LOVE YOU, can't you believe it?
我已深爱着你
I've deeply fallen for you.
见你一面也好 缓我念挂
Just seeing you would ease my longing.
是你吗 能哼出这首歌吗
Is it you? Can you hum this song?
你我最爱沿路唱 以歌声替代说话
You and I love to sing along the way, letting our voices replace our words.
这首歌在梦里面 完全为了你而唱
This song in my dreams is sung just for you.
让我的声音 陪着你吧
Let my voice be with you.
I LOVE YOU 你会否听见吗
I LOVE YOU, will you hear me?
你会否也象我 秒秒等待遥远仲夏
Do you, like me, wait every moment for that distant midsummer?
I LOVE YOU 你不敢相信吗
I LOVE YOU, can't you believe it?
我已深爱着你
I have already fallen deeply for you
见你一面也好 缓我念挂
Even a glimpse of you would soothe my longing
I LOVE YOU 你会否听见吗
I LOVE YOU, can you hear me?
你会否也象我 秒秒等待遥远仲夏
Do you, like me, wait for the distant midsummer, second by second?
I LOVE YOU 你不敢相信吗
I LOVE YOU, do you dare not believe it?
如今我只想你
These days, all I want is you
见你一面也好 缓我念挂
Even a glimpse of you would soothe my longing
你应该知道 你应该感到
You should know, you should feel
谁人爱你
Who loves you
