听见 冬天的离开
I hear the departure of winter
我在某年某月醒过来
I awaken in a certain year and month
我想 我等 我期待
I long, I wait, I anticipate
未来却不能因此安排
Yet the future cannot be planned this way
阴天 傍晚 车窗外
On a cloudy evening, outside the car window
未来有一个人在等待
Someone in the future is waiting for me
向左 向右 向前看
To the left, to the right, looking ahead
爱要拐几个弯才来?
How many twists and turns must love take to arrive?
我遇见谁 会有怎样的对白?
Who will I meet, and what conversations will we share?
我等的人 他在多远的未来?
The one I wait for, how far away is he in the future?
我听见风 来自地铁和人海
I hear the wind from the subway and the crowd.
我排著队 拿著爱的号码牌
I stand in line, holding a number for love.
阴天 傍晚 车窗外
On a cloudy evening, outside the car window,
未来有一个人在等待
Someone in the future is waiting for me.
向左 向右 向前看
Left and right, I look ahead,
爱要拐几个弯才来?
How many twists and turns does love take to arrive?
我遇见谁 会有怎样的对白?
Who will I meet, and what dialogues await?
我等的人 他在多远的未来?
The person I'm waiting for, how far in the future is he?
我听见风 来自地铁和人海
I hear the wind from the subway and the crowd.
我排著队 拿著爱的号码牌
I stand in line, holding a number for love.
我往前飞 飞过一片时间海
I fly forward, soaring over a sea of time,
我们也曾在爱情里受伤害
We too have been hurt in love's embrace.
我看著路 梦的入口有点窄
I gaze at the road, the entrance to dreams is a bit narrow,
我遇见你是最美丽的意外
Meeting you was the most beautiful surprise,
总有一天 我的谜底会揭开
One day, my secrets will be unveiled.
