不要悲伤
Don't be sad
Life goes on
当微风轻划过了林梢
As the gentle breeze sweeps through the treetops
这夜色正好
The night is just right
你就静静靠在我身旁
You quietly lean against me
看灯火亮起
Watching the lights come on
为什么会伤心
Why does it hurt?
又为什么叹息
And why do we sigh?
今夜一去不回
Tonight once gone, won't return
时间尚早 快和我拥抱
There's still time, come embrace me
当微风轻划过了林梢
When the gentle breeze brushes through the treetops
这夜色正好
This night feels just right
你就静静靠在我身旁
You quietly lean against me
看灯火满地
Watching the lights spread across the ground
留在我的身边
Stay here by my side
快别让我醒来
Please don't let me wake up
好吗再来一次
Shall we go for another round?
今夜滋味 真的甜美
Tonight's flavor is truly sweet
慢慢地
Slowly
慢慢地
Slowly
慢慢地
Slowly
慢慢地
Slowly
慢慢地
Slowly
慢慢地
Slowly
