那时候 我以为爱的是生活

Back then, I thought love was life itself.

也算懂得 什么适合什么不可

I’ve come to understand what fits and what doesn’t.

最近还是一样努力着

Lately, I'm still putting in the same effort.

配合你的性格

To match your personality

你的追求者 你的坎坷

Your pursuer, your struggles

我开的车

The car I'm driving,

算一算 虚度了多少个年头

Counting up the years wasted in vain,

仿佛足够写一套错爱的春秋

Feels enough to write a tale of misguided love,

如果以后 你还想为谁

If in the future, you still want someone,

浪费美好时候

To waste the beautiful moments,

眼泪只能在我的胸膛

Tears can only linger in my heart,

毫无保留

Without holding back,

互相折磨到白头

We torment each other until we're old,

悲伤坚决不放手

Sadness firmly refuses to let go,

开始纠缠之后

Since we started this entanglement.

才又被人放大了自由

Once again, my freedom is magnified by others,

你的暴烈太温柔

Your rage is too gentle,

感情又痛又享受

Emotions bring both pain and pleasure,

如果我说不吻你不罢休

If I say I won't rest until I kiss you,

谁能逼我将就

Who can force me to settle?

你问我 为什么顽固而专一

You ask me why I'm stubborn and devoted,

天下太大 总有人比你更合适

The world is vast, there's always someone more fitting for you,

其实我觉得这样不值

Honestly, I think it's not worth it this way,

可没选择方式

But there’s no choice involved,

你一出场别人都显得不过如此

As soon as you appear, everyone else seems insignificant.

互相折磨到白头

Torturing each other until we're old and gray

悲伤坚决不放手

Sadness clings on, refusing to let go

开始纠缠之后

Only after we start to entangle

才又被人放大了自由

Do we find our freedom magnified by another

你的暴烈太温柔

Your ferocity is so gentle

感情又痛又享受

Love is both painful and pleasurable

如果我说不吻你不罢休

If I say I won’t stop until I kiss you

谁能逼我将就

Who can force me to compromise?

互相折磨到白头

Torturing each other until we're old and gray

悲伤坚决不放手

Sadness clings on, refusing to let go

开始纠缠之后

After we started to entangle,

才又被人放大了自由

Only then was freedom magnified by others.

你的暴烈太温柔

Your fierceness is so tender.

感情又痛又享受

Love is both painful and pleasurable.

如果我说不吻你不罢休

If I say I won't stop until I kiss you,

谁能逼我将就

Who can force me to settle?

他们不过将就

They merely settle for less.
