悄悄望这小马路 从前情怀再度
Silently gazing at this little street, old feelings awaken once more.
看星看海看夜涛 踏过我踏过的路
Watching stars, the sea, the night waves, stepping on the paths I've walked.
来不及问候你可好
No time to ask if you're doing well.
来不及问候早给你拥抱
No time to ask, already wanting to hug you tight.
甜酸苦心往返 泪不知之间已流露
Sweet, sour, bitter thoughts interweave, tears unknowingly start to flow.
曾经的一个你 曾经的一个我
Once there was a you, once there was a me.
曾经的相处过 回忆中的你笑
The moments we shared, in memories you smile.
回忆中的你说 回忆中爱哭的我
In memories you say, in memories the crying me.
当天笑面 从新探望我
That day you smiled, coming to visit me again.
难得今天你 难得今天你记得起我
So rare today, you, so rare today, you remember me.
轻轻放松的脚步 忘怀城市速度
Gently easing my steps, forgetting the city's pace,
说风说花说月儿 未记却又记归路
Talking of wind, of flowers, of the moon, yet remembering the way back,
来不及羡慕你多好
Can't afford to envy how well you're doing,
来不及羡慕怎么你不老
Too late to envy how you never age,
如他朝许可愿一起追忆往时路
If tomorrow allows, I wish to chase memories of the past with you,
曾经的一个你 曾经的一个我
Once there was a you, once there was a me,
曾经的相处过 回忆中的你笑
The moments we shared, your laughter in my memories,
回忆中的你说 回忆中爱哭的我
In my memories, you spoke, in my memories, I cried,
当天笑面 从新探望我
On that day, smiling again, looking at me anew,
如果一天你 如果一天你记得起我
If one day you, if one day you remember me.
来不及话别便却步
Too late to say goodbye, I take a step back
来不及话别不想你知道
Too late to say goodbye, I don't want you to know
曾经失的已失 愿一天心中再重渡
What was once lost is lost; I wish to cross my heart again one day
曾经的一个你 曾经的一个我
Once, there was a you, once, there was a me
曾经的相处过 回忆中的你笑
The times we spent together, in memories, you smile
回忆中的你说 回忆中爱哭的我
In memories, you said, in memories, I cried often
当天笑面 从新探望我
On that day, with a smiling face, come to see me again
如果一天你 如果一天你怀念最初
If one day you, if one day you remember the beginning
曾经的一个你 曾经的一个我
Once, there was a you, once, there was a me
曾经的相处过 可否想起我
The times we spent together, can you remember me?
回忆中的你说 回忆中的我听
In memories, you speak, in memories, I listen.
回忆中我总出错 愿某天
In memories, I always falter, wishing for a day.
曾经的一个你 曾经的一个我
Once there was a you, once there was a me.
曾经的相处过 又再可
Once we shared moments, can it be again?
回忆中的你笑 回忆中的你说
In memories, you smiled, in memories, you spoke.
回忆中爱哭的我 可伴你 一起的过
In memories, the tearful me could share life with you.
