街上的风吹得摇摇欲坠
The wind on the street blows, teetering on the edge
街灯在孤单望着谁
The streetlights are lonely, gazing at whom
拥抱是多么空洞的行为
Embraces feel like such an empty act
谁会成为我的那个谁
Who will become my special one
我站在热闹的广场四处张望
I stand in the bustling square, looking around
日子越来越忙
Days keep getting busier
时间只剩下时间的回响
Time is left with only echoes of time
深夜多么浩瀚 却没有个对象
The deep night is so vast, yet it lacks a companion
爱情原来还在遥远的地方
Love, it turns out, is still far away
总在每一个星光点点的夜晚
Always in every starlit night
等待爱来造访
Waiting for love to pay a visit
人说在那遥远的地方 有位好姑娘
They say in that distant place, there's a lovely girl
是否终于有个人 如此弃而不舍
Could it be that finally someone cares, refusing to let go?
奔向她的身旁
Running to her side
我站在热闹的广场四处张望
I stand in the bustling square, looking around
日子越来越忙
Days are getting busier
时间只听见时间的回响
Time only hears the echoes of time
深夜的双人床 怎么躺看起来都太宽敞
In the late night, the double bed feels too spacious no matter how I lie
爱情等待天亮
Love awaits the dawn
我站在热闹的包厢尽情歌唱
I stand in the lively box, singing with all my heart
句句像针刺进我的心脏
Each line pierces my heart like a needle,
思念多么浩瀚 却没有个对象
Yearning is vast and deep, but there's no one to call my own.
爱情原来还在遥远的地方
Love, it turns out, still lies far away,
在那遥远的地方 有位好姑娘
In that distant place, there's a fair maiden.
