回忆像个说书的人
Memories like a storyteller
用充满乡音的口吻
In a tone filled with local accents
跳过水坑 绕过小村
Jumping over puddles, weaving through the small village
等相遇的缘分
Waiting for the fate of our encounter
你用泥巴捏一座城
You shaped a city from the clay
说将来要娶我进门
Claiming someday you'd take me home
转多少身 过几次门
No matter how many turns, or how many doors crossed
虚掷青春
Squandering our youth
小小的誓言 还不稳
Small little vows, still unsteady
小小的泪水 还在撑
Tiny teardrops, still holding on
稚嫩的唇 在说离分
Petite lips speak of separation,
我的心里从此住了一个人
From now on, one person resides in my heart.
曾经模样小小的我们
Once we were small, innocent versions of ourselves,
那年你搬小小的板凳
That year you moved a tiny little bench,
为戏入迷我也一路跟
Captivated by the play, I followed along,
我在找那个故事里的人
I am searching for the one in that story,
你是不能缺少的部份
You are an irreplaceable part,
你在树下小小的打盹
You nap beneath the tree, so small,
小小的我 傻傻等
Little me waits foolishly,
回忆像个说书的人
Memories are like a storyteller.
用充满乡音的口吻
With a voice full of hometown tones
跳过水坑 绕过小村
Jumping over puddles, circling the little village
等相遇的缘分
Waiting for the fate of our encounter
你用泥巴捏一座城
You mold a city out of clay
说将来要娶我进门
Saying that one day you'll take me home
转多少身 过几次门
No matter how many times I turn, how many doors I pass
虚掷青春
Wasting youth in vain
小小的感动 雨纷纷
Little tiny touches, as the rain falls
小小的别扭 惹人疼
Little tiny quirks, drawing affection
小小的人 还不会吻
Little one, yet to learn how to kiss
我的心里从此住了一个人
In my heart, from now on, lives a certain someone
曾经模样小小的我们
Once, we were little in so many ways
那年你搬小小的板凳
That year, you moved a tiny little bench
为戏入迷我也一路跟
Consumed by the play, I followed all the way
我在找那个故事里的人
I'm searching for the person in that story
你是不能缺少的部份
You are the part that cannot be missed
你在树下小小的打盹
You napped under the tree, so small and sweet
小小的我 傻傻等
That little me, foolishly waiting still
我的心里从此住了一个人
In my heart, from now on, lives a certain someone
曾经模样小小的我们
Once, we were little in so many ways
当初学人说爱念剧本
At first, I learned to say love like reciting a script
缺牙的你发音却不准
With missing teeth, your pronunciation isn't quite right
我在找那个故事里的人
I'm searching for the person within that story
你是不能缺少的部份
You are the missing piece I need
小小的手牵小小的人
Little hands hold onto little ones
守著小小的永恒
Guarding a tiny eternal moment
