穿华丽的服装为原始的渴望而站著
Dressed in splendid clothes, standing for primal desires
用完美的表情为脆弱的城市而撑著
With a perfect expression, holding up the fragile city
我冷漠的接受你焦急的等待也困著
I coldly accept your anxious wait, feeling trapped too
像无数生存在橱窗里的模特
Like countless mannequins living in the display window
除了灯以外我还能看见什么
Besides the lights, what else can I see?
除了光以外我还能要求什么
Besides the glow, what else can I request?
除了你以外还能倚赖哪一个
Besides you, who else can I rely on?
在千里以外在呼喊的是什么
What is calling out from a thousand miles away?
在百年以后想回忆的是什么
What do I want to remember a hundred years hence?
在离开以前能否再见那一刻
Before I leave, can I see that moment again?
记得你的眼睛将会亮著
Remember, your eyes will shine bright,
我的手臂将会挥著
My arms will be waving,
谁说世界早已没有选择
Who says the world has run out of choices?
趁著我会喜怒你会哀乐
While I feel joy and anger, you will feel sorrow and happiness.
唱几分钟情歌
Singing a love song for just a few minutes,
没什么至少证明我们还活著
It's nothing, at least it proves we're still alive.
像单纯的蝴蝶为玫瑰的甜美而飞著
Like a simple butterfly, flying for the sweetness of roses,
像顽皮的小猫为明天的好奇而睡著
Like a mischievous little kitten, falling asleep out of curiosity for tomorrow.
是混乱的时代是透明的监狱也觉得
It's a chaotic time, a transparent prison, and I still feel,
是不能继续在橱窗里做模特
That we can't continue being models in the shop window.
除了风以外我还能听到什么
What else can I hear besides the wind?
除了尘以外我还能拒绝什么
What else can I refuse besides the dust?
除了你以外还能倚赖哪一个
Who else can I rely on besides you?
在千里以外在呼喊的是什么
What is calling from a thousand miles away?
在百年以后想回忆的是什么
What will I want to remember a hundred years from now?
在离开以前能否再见那一刻
Before I leave, can we see that moment again?
记得你的眼睛将会亮著
I remember your eyes will still shine bright.
我的手臂将会挥著
My arms will be waving.
谁说世界早已没有选择
Who says the world has run out of choices?
趁著我会喜怒你会哀乐
While I feel joy and anger, you will feel sorrow and joy.
唱几分钟情歌
Sing a love song for just a few minutes
没什么至少证明我们还活著
It doesn't matter, at least it proves we're still alive
记得你的眼睛将会亮著
I remember your eyes will shine bright
我的手臂将会挥著
My arm will wave with all my might
谁说世界早已没有选择
Who says the world has run out of choice?
趁著我会喜怒你会哀乐
While I can feel joy and anger, you can express your voice
唱几分钟情歌
Sing a love song for just a few minutes
没什么至少证明我们还活著
It doesn't matter, at least it proves we're still alive
