若你是一阵春天里的风
If you are a breeze on a spring day,
那我一定是最远的风筝
Then I must be the furthest kite.
若你只是一道某个弄堂紧锁的门
If you're just a locked door in an alley,
我是门外的藤
I am the vine outside the gate.
若你是难得一见的彩虹
If you are a rare and splendid rainbow,
我愿做路人惊叹的叫声
I wish to be the gasp of a passing traveler.
若你又是一颗可望不可及的星辰
If you are a star, far and unreachable,
我便是眺望眼神
I will be the gaze that longs to see.
然而你选择做平凡的人
Yet you choose to be an ordinary person,
于是我也就爱上你的人
So I have fallen in love with who you are.
甘愿我的灵魂困在这个肉身
Willing for my soul to be trapped in this flesh,
只求能跟你相衬
Just to seek a match with you,
然而你已是最平凡的人
Yet you are already the most ordinary person,
看著多美好 心却那么笨
Looking so beautiful, but my heart is so foolish.
双手和你碰过 肩膀和你擦过
Hands have touched you, shoulders brushed past you,
灵魂却无法相认
Yet our souls can’t recognize each other.
当你是不停追逐的秒针
When you are the second hand that never stops chasing,
我是你背后暗涌的齿轮
I am the hidden gear behind your back.
当你还是一滴笔尖尚未干透的蓝
When you were still a drop of ink yet to dry,
我是纸背上的痕
I am the trace on the back of the paper.
原来你选择做平凡的人
So you chose to be an ordinary person
却不是一个会爱我的人
But you're not the one who could love me
不管我的灵魂 困在哪个肉身
No matter in which body my soul is trapped
都注定不会相衬
It was destined not to match
原来我已是个平凡的人
Turns out I’m already an ordinary person
什么都明白 心却那么疼
Understanding everything, yet my heart aches so
和你谈笑风生 和你谈过心声
Chatting and laughing with you, sharing heartfelt words
灵魂却不敢相认
But our souls dare not acknowledge each other
