寻着爱 绝非罪过
Searching for love is no sin at all
何用含泪说本应等我
Why speak of waiting with tears in your eyes?
别把不应该讲的讲我知
Don’t say what shouldn't be said, I know it all
否则分开将更不易
Otherwise parting will be much harder still
存在其实只为你
My existence is really just for you
回来其实盼可得到你
Coming back, I truly hope to have you
谁知一起所编织的往事
Who knows the past we wove together
到了此时已经不再合时
Now in this moment, it doesn't fit anymore
请转身向他归去
Please turn around and go back to him
毋须道歉 他跟你颇登对
No need for apologies, he suits you quite well
今天的我是零碎旧事
Today I am just fragmented memories
遗憾是同时和他深爱你
Regrets come from loving you both with all my heart
请不必说多一句
Please don’t say another word
迟的是我 怎可斥责你一句
It’s I who was late, how can I blame you at all
我自会远飞 若难忘掉你
I will soar away if I can't forget you
仍绝对不骚扰你
Still, I will never disturb you
和他专心相爱吧
Focus on loving him with all your heart
预祝找到快乐途
Wishing you joy on your path ahead
和一生比我好
Better than a lifetime spent with me
寒冬交低给我吧
Please hand over the cold winter to me
和暖春天送他
Warm spring sends him away,
愿途上一生比我好
Wishing that his journey is better than mine for life,
其实谁又可愿意
But who would truly be willing,
回来然后再分开一次
To come back and part once more,
如多一分多一刻的对视
As if a moment more of gaze,
我将不能也不可再自持
I can no longer hold my composure,
请转身向他归去
Please turn back and return to him,
毋须道歉 他跟你颇登对
No need for apologies; he suits you well,
今天的我是零碎旧事
Today I'm just fragmented memories,
遗憾是同时和他深爱你
Regret lies in loving you both at once.
请不必说多一句
Please don't say another word,
迟的是我 怎可斥责你一句
It’s me who’s late, how can I blame you for that?
我自会远飞 若难忘掉你
I will fly far away, if I can't forget you,
仍绝对不骚扰你
Still, I won't disturb you at all,
和他专心相爱吧
Focus on loving him wholeheartedly,
预祝找到快乐途
Wishing you joy on your path ahead,
和一生比我好
Better than me for a lifetime,
寒冬交低给我吧
Let the cold winter be mine,
和暖春天送他
And warm spring be sent to him,
愿途上一生比我好
May life on your journey be better than mine.
和他专心相爱吧
Love him with all your heart,
预祝找到快乐途
I wish you find the path to happiness,
和一生比我好
Better than what I could ever give you,
寒冬交低给我吧
Let the cold winter fade away for me,
和暖春天送他
And warm spring come his way,
愿途上一生比我好
May your journey be better than mine,
愿途上一生比我好
May your journey be better than mine.
