找自己
Finding Myself
yeh la la la la la la
yeh la la la la la la
昨天晚上做了个梦
Last night I had a dream
我走进撒哈拉沙漠
I walked into the Sahara Desert
空无一人站在太阳下
All alone under the blazing sun
摄氏六十六点六度
At sixty-six point six degrees Celsius
快要焚化我的眼珠
Almost burning my eyeballs
忽然一场大雨降下来
Suddenly a heavy rain poured down
汗水被那雨水冲走
Sweat washed away by the rain
结束四十天的折磨
Ending forty days of torment
荒漠已然变成了绿洲
The wasteland has turned into an oasis
彩虹下有一棵大树
Under the rainbow stands a great tree
大树上有一个苹果
On the tree hangs a shiny apple
咬下一口我就全明白
One bite and I understand it all
可不可以让我再让我再一次回到那个美丽世界里
Can you let me return, let me return to that beautiful world once more
找自己
To find myself
哗啦啦啦啦啦天在下雨
Splashing, splashing, the sky is pouring rain
哗啦啦啦啦啦云在哭泣
Splashing, splashing, the clouds are weeping
哗啦啦啦啦啦滴入我的心
Splashing, splashing, droplets fall into my heart
不用说我只会胡思乱想
No need to say, I only think wild thoughts.
不用跟我说我只会妄想
No need to tell me, I only have illusions.
哗啦啦啦啦啦让我去淋雨
Splashing, let me go dance in the rain.
我只希望能再能够再一次回到那个美丽时光里
I just hope to return once more to that beautiful time.
找自己
Finding myself.
挤在公车里象个沙丁鱼
Squished on the bus like a sardine.
上班下班每天是规律
Going to work, coming home, every day is a routine.
这么多的人到哪里去
So many people, where are they going?
每个面孔写着无奈
Every face is written with helplessness.
爸爸妈妈彼此没有爱
Mom and Dad, there's no love between them.
难道这就是生命的真理？
Is this the truth of life?
可不可以让我再让我再一次回到那个美丽世界里
Can you let me return once more to that beautiful world?
去逃避
To escape.
哗啦啦啦啦啦天在下雨
Splashing, the sky is pouring rain.
哗啦啦啦啦啦云在哭泣
Splashing, the clouds are weeping.
哗啦啦啦啦啦滴入我的心
Splashing, it seeps into my heart.
不用说我只会胡思乱想
No need to say, I’ll just overthink.
不用跟我说我只会妄想
No need to tell me, I’ll only daydream.
哗啦啦啦啦啦让我去淋雨
Splashing, let me go dance in the rain.
我只希望能再能够再一次回到那个美丽时光里
I just hope to return once again to that beautiful time.
找自己
Finding myself
躲在我的屋檐下面oh
Hiding beneath my eaves, oh
睡在我的被单里面oh
Sleeping in my sheets, oh
听着细雨滴滴答答
Listening to the gentle rain patter
哗啦啦啦啦啦天在下雨
Pitter-patter, the sky is pouring down
哗啦啦啦啦啦云在哭泣
Pitter-patter, the clouds are weeping
哗啦啦啦啦啦滴入我的心
Pitter-patter, dripping into my heart
不用说我只会胡思乱想
No need to say, I just overthink
不用跟我说我只会妄想
No need to tell me, I just daydream
哗啦啦啦啦啦让我去淋雨
Pitter-patter, let me go dance in the rain
我只希望能再能够再一次回到那个美丽时光里
I only wish I could return once more to that beautiful time,
找自己
Finding myself,
哗啦啦啦啦啦天在下雨
Splash, splash, splash, the sky is weeping,
哗啦啦啦啦啦云在哭泣
Splash, splash, splash, the clouds are crying,
哗啦啦啦啦啦滴入我的心
Splash, splash, splash, drop into my heart,
不用说我只会胡思乱想
No need to say, I'll just overthink,
不用跟我说我只会妄想
No need to tell me, I'll just daydream,
哗啦啦啦啦啦让我去淋雨
Splash, splash, splash, let me dance in the rain,
我只希望能再能够再一次回到那个美丽时光里
I only wish I could return once more to that beautiful time,

不用说我只会胡思乱想
No need to say, I just keep overthinking
不用跟我说我只会妄想
No need to tell me, I just keep daydreaming
哗啦啦啦啦啦让我去淋雨
Splashing all around, let me dance in the rain
我只希望能再能够再一次回到那个美丽时光里
I only hope to return once more to that beautiful time
