绿色大衣 棕色眼影
Green coat, brown eyeshadow
桃色皮肤 金色过程
Peachy skin, golden journey
蜜色目光 紫色布景
Honey-colored gaze, purple backdrop
黄色头发 蓝色心情
Golden hair, blue mood
绝色互拥 春色细听
Unmatched embrace, spring whispers
无色无声 天色已明
Colorless and silent, the sky is brightening
梦不愿醒 烧毁眼睛
Dreams refuse to wake, burning my eyes
才会和你 不停
Only then with you, unceasing
走了都走了 但我满脑海不退潮
Gone, all gone, yet thoughts flood like the tide
飞了早飞了 情绪却切割不掉
Flown away long ago, but emotions can’t be cut away
睡觉玩耍散步闲聊
Sleeping, playing, strolling, chatting,
然而现实不分哭笑
Yet reality knows no tears or laughs.
愉快乐观努力顽强
Joyful, optimistic, striving, resilient,
然而杂念却未忘掉
Yet those wandering thoughts refuse to fade.
绿色大衣 棕色眼影
Green coat, brown eyeshadow,
桃色皮肤 金色过程
Peach skin, golden moments,
蜜色目光 紫色布景
Honey-colored gaze, purple backdrop,
黄色头发 蓝色心情
Yellow hair, blue feelings,
绝色互拥 春色细听
Stunning embraces, listening closely to spring,
无色无声 天色已明
Colorless, soundless, the sky has brightened.
梦不愿醒 烧毁眼睛
Dreams unwilling to wake, burning my eyes away,
才会和你 不停
Only then can I be with you, endlessly.
昏了不紧要 梦里永远拉紧发条
It doesn't matter if I get drowsy, in dreams the clock winds tight forever.
走了灯熄了 而我脑里唱反调
When the lights go out, I sing a different tune in my mind.
在满地工作下埋头
With my head down, buried in work all around,
然而杂念不只一秒
Yet still, distracting thoughts linger more than a second.
自信自恋都不再要
No more need for confidence or vanity,
难如杂念那样微妙
Subtly difficult, like stray thoughts can be.
绿色大衣 棕色眼影
Green overcoat, brown eyeshadow,
桃色皮肤 金色过程
Peach-colored skin, the golden journey unfolds.
蜜色目光 紫色布景
Honey-colored gaze, purple scenery
黄色头发 蓝色心情
Golden hair, blue mood
绝色互拥 春色细听
Unmatched embrace, spring whispers
无色无声 天色已明
Colorless, soundless, the sky is brightening
梦不愿醒 烧毁眼睛
Dreams unwilling to wake, burning the eyes
才会和你 不停
Only then will I be with you, endlessly
