斟酌
Weighing carefully,
怎样洒脱
How to let it all go,
装作不太在乎这个结果
Pretending that I don't care about the outcome,
摩擦中
In the friction,
爱情也慢慢变薄
Love slowly fades away,
想好好解决却没有线索
Hoping to solve it well, yet no clues to find,
不过总有什么
But there's always something,
不然我们不会觉得不妥
Otherwise, we wouldn't feel this unease,
只因为我们都太会闪躲
Simply because we're both so good at dodging,
所以一再重复同样的错
So we keep repeating the same mistakes.
我们的爱情起了毛球
Our love has formed some lint
弄皱了所有温柔
Wrinkling all the tenderness
谁说什么都像借口
Whoever said that sounds like an excuse
就算这个时候
Even at this moment
还是觉得内疚
I still feel the guilt
我们的爱起了毛球
Our love has turned into lint
弄皱了仅有的温柔
Wrinkling the only softness we had
变成了毛躁的念头
Transforming into rough thoughts
我想我们仍会要求更多
I think we will still demand more
摩擦中
In the friction
爱情也慢慢变薄
Love is slowly wearing thin
不过总有什么
Yet there’s always something
不然我们不会害怕寂寞
Otherwise we wouldn't fear the loneliness
是不是任谁都会躲不过
Is it true that anyone can't escape?
每一次都重复同样的错
Each time, repeating the same mistake
我们的爱情起了毛球
Our love has started to p ill
弄皱了所有温柔
Wrinkling all the tenderness
就算这个时候
Even in this moment
我们的爱起了毛球
Our love has started to p ill
弄皱了仅有的温柔
Wrinkling the only tenderness we have
到底应该如何补救
How should I truly remedy this?
不想回头但又不想放手
I don't want to look back, but I can't seem to let go.
Hu.....le......
Hu.....le......
