  1. 等待 我随时随地在等待 做妳感情上的依赖

    Waiting, I'm always waiting anywhere, anytime, to be your emotional support.

  2. 我没有任何的疑问 这是爱

    I have no doubts at all, this is love.

  3. *我猜 妳早就想要说明白 我觉得自己好失败

    * I guess you've wanted to clarify for a long time, I feel like such a failure.

  4. 从天堂掉落到深渊 多无奈

    Falling from heaven into the abyss, how helpless it is.

  5. #我愿意改变 (what can I do)

    # I'm willing to change (what can I do)

  6. 重新再来一遍 (just give me chance)

    To start over again (just give me a chance)

  7. 我无法只是普通朋友 感情已那么深 叫我怎么能放手

    I can't just be a regular friend, feelings run so deep, how can I let go?

  8. 但妳说 I only wanna be your friend 做个朋友

    But you say I only wanna be your friend, just a friend.

  1. 我在妳心中只是 just a friend 不是情人

    In your heart, I’m just a friend, not a lover.

  2. 我感激妳对我这样的坦白 但我给妳的爱暂时收不回来

    I appreciate your honesty towards me, but the love I gave you can’t be taken back for now.

  3. So I 我不能只是 be your friend I just can't be your friend

    So I just can't be your friend.
