当世界只剩下这床头灯
When the world is just this bedside lamp
你那边是早晨已经出门
On your side, the morning has already begun its day
我侧身感到你在转身
I turn to feel you as you turn away
无数陌生人正在等下一个绿灯
Countless strangers waiting for the next green light
一再错身彼此脆弱的时分
Time and time again, we miss each other in these fragile moments
不过渴望一个吻的余温
All I crave is the warmth left by a kiss
我关了灯黑暗把我拼吞 oh
I turned off the light, and darkness swallows me whole, oh
你不在 当我最需要爱 你却不在 oh
You're not here when I need love the most, you're not here, oh
无尽等待像独白的难挨 oh-oh-oh
Endless waiting feels like a monologue hard to bear, oh-oh-oh
你不在 高兴还是悲哀 你都不在
You're not here, whether in joy or sorrow, you're still not here
我受了伤再偷偷好起来 但你不在 不在 whoo
I've been hurt, but I secretly mend, yet you're not here, not here, whoo.
时间再按下许多次快门
Time clicks again and again, each shutter pressed.
沉默里听见转动的秒针
In the silence, I hear the ticking of the seconds.
一个人吃饭这个凌晨
Alone I dine in this midnight hour.
孤单一人份 你低声说你有别人
A solitary meal, you whisper you've found another.
我的话筒只有自己的体温
My microphone only holds my own warmth.
怎样认真也不一定成真
No matter how sincere, it doesn’t guarantee the truth.
你说的对 我不得不承认 oh-oh
You're right, I have to concede, oh-oh.
你不在 当我最需要爱 你却不在 whoa
You're not here when I need love the most, you're just not here, whoa.
无尽等待像独白的难挨 whoa-oh
Endless waiting feels like an unbearable monologue, whoa-oh.
你不在 高兴还是悲哀 你都不在 whoa
You're not here, whether joy or sorrow, you're still not here, whoa
我受了伤再偷偷好起来 但你不在 whoa
I got hurt and slowly healed in secret, but you're not here, whoa
那些摇摆我都明白 都明白
I understand all the swaying, I understand it all
但你不在 爱已不在 不在
But you're not here, love is no longer here, not here
你不在 当我最需要爱 你却不在 whoa
You're not here when I need love the most, but you're not here, whoa
一个人分饰两角的恋爱 oh-oh-oh
A one-person play of love, oh-oh-oh
你不在 高兴还是悲哀 你都不在 whoo
You're not here, whether joy or sorrow, you're still not here, whoo
像空气般不存在的存在
An existence that vanishes like air
再没有痕迹的爱 你不在
No traces of love left, you're not here
当我需要你的爱 你不在
When I need your love, you're not here
