想说却还没说的还很多
There’s still so much I want to say but haven't yet.
攒著是因为想写成歌
I save it all up dreaming to turn it into a song.
让人轻轻地唱著 淡淡地记著
Let it be sung softly, cherished lightly in memory.
就算终于忘了也值了
Even if we eventually forget, it will still be worth it.
说不定我一生涓滴意念
Perhaps throughout my life, thoughts trickle down like drops.
侥幸汇成河 然后我俩各自一端
By chance they converge into a river, with us at either end.
望著大河弯弯 终于敢放胆
Gazing at the winding river, I finally dare to let go.
嘻皮笑脸面对人生的难
With a smile, I face the hardships of life.
也许我们从未成熟
Maybe we have never truly matured.
还没能晓得就快要老了
Still unaware that we are about to grow old.
尽管心里活著的还是那个年轻人
Though a young heart still beats within me,
因为不安而频频回首
I look back often, restless and uneasy.
无知地索求 羞耻于求救
Ignorant, I crave, shamed to seek help,
不知疲倦地翻越 每一个山丘
Tirelessly I climb over each rugged hill.
越过山丘 虽然已白了头
Over the hill, though I’ve turned silver-haired,
喋喋不休 时不我予的哀愁
Endless chatter, the sorrow that time won’t share.
还未如愿见著不朽
Still, I have yet to glimpse the immortal light,
就把自己先搞丢
And in the chaos, I’ve lost my way at night.
越过山丘才发现无人等候
Crossed the hill, realizing I wait for none,
喋喋不休再也唤不回温柔
Endless chatter, warmth is gone, love's undone.
为何记不得上一次是谁给的拥抱
Why can't I remember the last embrace I received?
在什么时候
At what point in time,
我没有刻意隐藏 也无意让你感伤
I didn't hide it on purpose, nor did I want to make you feel sad.
多少次我们无醉不欢
How many times have we celebrated without being drunk?
咒骂人生太短 唏嘘相见恨晚
Cursing that life is too short, sighing that we met too late.
让女人把妆哭花了也不管
Letting the woman cry her makeup away and not caring.
遗憾我们从未成熟
It's a pity we never grew up.
还没能晓得就已经老了
Before I even knew it, I had already aged.
尽力却仍不明白
Trying my best but still not understanding.
身边的年轻人
The young people around me.
给自己随便找个理由
Just find a random excuse for myself,
向情爱的挑逗命运的左右
Teasing fate with the whims of love,
不自量力地还手 直至死方休
Unrealistically fighting back until I breathe my last,
越过山丘 虽然已白了头
Crossing over the hills, though my hair has turned gray,
喋喋不休 时不我予的哀愁
Rambling endlessly, mourning the time I can't reclaim,
还未如愿见著不朽
Still yearning for an immortal glimpse,
就把自己先搞丢
Only to lose myself in the process,
越过山丘才发现无人等候
Crossing over the hills to find no one is waiting,
喋喋不休 再也唤不回了温柔
Rambling endlessly, tenderness can never return,
为何记不得上一次是谁给的拥抱
Why can't I remember who last embraced me?
在什么时候
When was it
越过山丘 虽然已白了头
That I crossed the hills, though my hair has turned white?
喋喋不休 时不我予的哀愁
Chattering endlessly, the sorrow that time won’t grant me.
还未如愿见著不朽
Still yet to see my wishes come true,
就把自己先搞丢
So I first lost myself.
越过山丘才发现无人等候
Only after crossing the hills did I find no one waiting.
喋喋不休再也唤不回了温柔
Chattering endlessly, warmth can never be recalled.
为何记不得上一次是谁给的拥抱
Why can't I remember the last time someone hugged me?
在什么时候
When was it
喋喋不休 时不我予的哀愁
Chattering endlessly, the sorrow that time won’t grant me.
向情爱的挑逗 命运的左右
Tempted by love's allure, swayed by fate's hand,
不自量力地还手 直至死方休
Unfazed, we fight back, until death marks the end.
为何记不得上一次是谁给的拥抱
Why can't I recall the last embrace I received?
在什么时候
At what moment did it unfold?
