不是我的错 我们都听过
It's not my fault, we've all heard it before
完美的时候 要更多 吵架时又说得太多
In perfect moments, we ask for more, but when we argue, we say too much
有时候的我 只想和你一样沉默
Sometimes I just want to be as quiet as you
不想当那啰啰唆唆 水也灭不掉的火
Don't want to be that nagging voice, like a fire that water can't drown
也许大男人 真的很难忍
Maybe a real man finds it hard to endure
少了点风度还是不承认
Still, they won't admit their lack of grace
有时候错的并不知道错的
Sometimes those who are wrong don't even know they've erred
不想借口只是直接一点说
I don't want excuses, just say it plain and clear
有时候女孩没那么小孩
Sometimes girls aren't as childish as they seem
心里的无奈也需要点关怀
The helplessness in my heart needs a little care too
遗憾的已都变成勉强了
Regrets have all turned into struggles now
怎么能重新再来
How can we start over again?
不是我的错 我们都听过
It's not my fault, we've all heard it before
完美的时候 要更多 吵架时又说得太多
In perfect moments, we need more, yet we say too much in fights
有时候的我 只想和你一样沉默
Sometimes I just want to be as silent as you
不想当那啰啰唆唆 水也灭不掉的火
I don't want to be that nagging voice, a fire that water can't extinguish
也许大男人 真的很难忍
Maybe being a real man is truly hard to bear
少了点风度还是不承认
Lacking a bit of grace still won't make me admit it
有时候错的并不知道错的
Sometimes the one who's wrong doesn't even know they're wrong
不想借口只是直接一点说
I don't want excuses, just say it more directly
有时候女孩没那么小孩
Sometimes a girl isn't so much of a child,
心里的无奈也需要点关怀
The helplessness inside needs a touch of care.
遗憾的已都变成勉强了
Regrets have all turned into forced smiles,
怎么能重新再来
How can we start all over again?
也许大男人 没那么男人
Maybe a big man isn’t quite that manly,
少了点风度还是不承认
Lacking some grace yet refusing to admit it.
有时候错的并不知道错的
Sometimes the wrong doesn’t even know it's wrong,
不想借口只是直接一点说
Not looking for excuses, just saying it straightforward,
有时候女孩没那么小孩
Sometimes a girl isn't so much of a child,
心里的无奈也需要点关怀
The helplessness inside needs a touch of care.
遗憾的已都变成勉强了
What once was regret has now turned to reluctance,
怎么能重新再来
How can we ever start anew?
