只剩一天 要换个时间
Only one day left, time to make a change
我开始怕 世界左右的改变
I’m starting to fear, the world's shifting in range
是否太快 是否太无所谓
Is it too fast? Does it matter, at all?
我们未来 这个方向对不对
Our future ahead, is this path where we call?
2000年 是一把要换弦的guitar
Year 2000, a guitar awaits a new string
背在我的肩膀
Resting on my shoulder, a burden I bring
我受不了它老旧过时的声音
I can’t stand the sound, so old and so worn
那新歌怎么唱
But how do we sing, a new song to be born?
2000年 准备你的箭上弦(oh ya)
Year 2000, get ready to string your bow (oh ya)
2000年你愿不愿意变(oh 你愿不愿意变)
Year 2000, are you willing to change? (oh, are you willing to change?)
2000年 跑在潮流的前面
In 2000, running ahead of the trend
2000年 你敢不敢冒险 (Whatcha gonna do?)
In 2000, do you dare to take a chance? (Whatcha gonna do?)
只剩一天 要换个时间
Only one day left, time for a change
我们的爱 就要跨越这界线
Our love is about to cross this boundary
我需要你 你大概也需要我
I need you, and you probably need me too
心里的歌 不要被杂音迷惑
Songs in my heart, don’t let the noise confuse
2000年 是一把要换弦的guitar
In 2000, it's a guitar that needs new strings
背在我的肩膀
On my shoulders
我受不了它老旧过时的声音
I can't stand its outdated sound
那新歌怎么唱
So how do we sing that new song?
2000年 准备你的箭上弦(Hu ya)
In 2000, get your arrows ready (Hu ya)
2000年你愿不愿意变(oh 你愿不愿意变)
In 2000, will you change? (oh, will you change?)
2000年 跑在潮流的前面(Oh ya)
In 2000, running ahead of the trends (Oh ya)
2000年 你敢不敢冒险(Wu 你敢不敢)
In 2000, do you dare to take a risk? (Wu, do you dare?)
2000年 2000年 2000年 oh oh oh
In 2000, 2000, 2000, oh oh oh
2000年 2000年 2000年 coming at you
In 2000, 2000, 2000, coming at you
2000年 准备你的箭上弦(Oh ya 爱在潮流里面)
In 2000, get your arrows ready (Oh ya, love is in the trends)
2000年你愿不愿意变
In 2000, will you change?
2000年 跑在潮流的前面(跑在潮流的前面)
In 2000, running ahead of the trends (running ahead of the trends)
2000年 你敢不敢冒险(Wu)
In 2000, do you dare to take a risk? (Wu)
2000年 准备你的箭上弦(Mm da la)
In the year 2000, get your arrows ready (Mm da la)
2000年你愿不愿意变 (你我都会变)
In the year 2000, do you want to change? (We both will change)
2000年 跑在潮流的前面(Oh 跑在潮流的前面)
In the year 2000, running ahead of the trend (Oh running ahead of the trend)
2000年 你敢不敢冒险(Oh coming at you)
In the year 2000, do you dare to take the risk? (Oh coming at you)
