你想 妩媚婉约 仔细漫长
You want to be charming and elegant, detailed and prolonged.
（像合唱 这么 加那么那样）
(Like a chorus, this and that)
我想 纯情高贵 兴奋紧张
I desire pure and noble feelings, excitement and tension.
（无非远或近 升与沉）
(Nothing but distant or near, rise and fall)
诚实放任 都不要紧
Honesty and freedom, none of it matters.
（无非抱或吻 浅与深）
(Nothing but hugs or kisses, shallow or deep)
平原高山 远近由人
Plains and mountains, distance is up to the person.
（也许不想一个人 ）
(Maybe I don't want to be alone)
不想等 大半生（才想眼望眼 身贴身）
Don't want to wait, half a lifetime (just to gaze into each other's eyes, bodies close)
假使有人 便发生
If there's someone, then it happens.
一到二 三四五六七八次
Once to twice, three, four, five, six, seven, eight times
一七三 九三九四一件事
One seven three, nine three nine four, one thing
你知 在某几次 于某阵时
You know, in certain moments, at certain times
（是 玩意 某些多某种意义）
(It's a play, bearing different meanings)
我知 但某一次 不够意思
I know, but one time wasn't enough significance
（无非远或近 升与沉）
(It's all just far or near, rising or sinking)
诚实放任 都不要紧
Honesty and indulgence, it doesn't matter
（无非抱或吻 浅与深）
(It's just embracing or kissing, shallow or deep)
平原高山 远近由人 （也许不想等）
Plains and mountains, distance depends on us (maybe don't want to wait)
不想等 大半生（才想眼望眼 身贴身）
Don't want to wait, most of my life (only then do I want our eyes to meet, bodies close)
假使有人 便发生
If someone appears, then something happens.
平实过份 都不要紧
Being plain or excessive, it doesn't really matter.
平湖深海 冷热由人
On calm lakes or deep seas, the coldness and warmth are up to us.
不想等 大半生谁（谁都领略过 湿过身）
I don't want to wait, most of life has been experienced by anyone (anyone knows what it's like to get soaked).
只需有人 也有心
Just need someone, who's also sincere.
莫张扬 李洪黄蓝陆巫常
Don't make a fuss, it's just the ordinary, like people of the land.
张三李四任何郭骆方向
Any Zhang, Li, or any Guo, Luo, from any direction.
（是 玩意 某些多某种意义）
(It's a thing, with meanings that can vary in so many ways.)
一到二 三四五六七八次
From one to two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight times.
一七三 九三九四一件事
One seven three, nine three nine four, it's all the same thing.
