你又不是李白 不用说诗的对白
You're not Li Bai, no need for poetic lines to share
不用酒后安排 浪漫的交待
No need to plan romance after a drink's affair
感情虽然失败 还好甜点很精彩
Though the love may have failed, the dessert's a delightful surprise
谢谢你的招待
Thank you for your hospitality
这一次的单我来买
This time it's my treat, let me cover the prize
原谅我心情还愉快
Forgive me, my mood is still bright
为甚么要分开 我连猜也不想猜
Why must we part? I don't even want to guess what's right
我不是庸才 你不是天才
I'm no mediocre soul, you're not a genius in sight
也不是伤害我的那种人才
And you're not the kind of talent that brings pain to my life
不爱就不爱 离开就拜拜
If there's no love, then there's no love, goodbye and farewell, alright
我不想听甚么甚么我们合不来
I don't want to hear about what doesn’t work for us
我有节目在排 有很多东西想买
I've got my schedule lined up, so many things I want to buy
如果你是李白
If you were Li Bai
魅力留给后人崇拜
Your charm left for future generations to admire
别阻碍了我的舞台
Don’t block my stage
为甚么要分开 我连猜也不想猜
Why must we part? I don’t even want to guess
我不是桑田 你不是沧海
I'm not the marshlands, and you’re not the vast sea
你不要以为你特别可爱
Don't think that you're particularly cute
很多人恋爱 很多人分开
Many are in love, many are breaking apart
我不会以为我特别失败
I won’t think of myself as particularly defeated
我不是庸才 你不是天才
I'm not a mediocre soul, and you're not a genius.
也不是伤害我的那种人才
Neither are you the kind to hurt me, that's true.
不爱就不爱 难挨就不挨
If you don't love, then don't love; if it's hard to bear, let it be.
只给你一分钟想想怎么说拜拜
I'll give you just a minute to figure out how to say goodbye.
床前明月光 疑是地上霜
The bright moon shines before my bed, mistaking it for frost on the ground.
举头望明月 低头思故乡
I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon, then lower my head to think of home.
我不是庸才 你不是天才
I'm not a mediocre soul, and you're not a genius.
也不是伤害我的那种人才
Neither are you the kind to hurt me, that's true.
不爱就不爱 难挨就不挨
If you don't love, then don't love; if it's hard to bear, let it be.
只给你一分钟想想怎么说拜拜
I'll give you just a minute to figure out how to say goodbye.
