断了线的青春
Youth severed like a broken thread
像木棉在最盛开的季节凋谢
Fades like the cotton tree in its fullest bloom
乱了念的午夜
Midnight, thoughts all in disarray
你在我不了解的世界
You dwell in a world I can't comprehend
往事像黑白的画面
Memories play out like a black-and-white scene
重复你的身影和笑靥
Repeating your silhouette and radiant smile
曾经许下的梦想和誓言
The dreams and vows once made
怎留下我一个人实现
How can I be left alone to fulfill them?
情难牵梦难圆谁陪我话当年
Love hard to hold, dreams hard to fulfill, who talks of the past with me?
我的泪就像失控的狂雨纷飞
My tears fall like a wild storm, out of control
情难牵人已远失去你心已缺
Love fades away, you have drifted far, my heart is missing you.
满怀的遗恨为何当时我不在你身边
Filled with regrets, why wasn't I by your side back then?
断了线的青春
The youth that was cut loose,
像木棉在最盛开的季节凋谢
Like the cotton tree wilting in its season of fullest bloom.
乱了念的午夜
In the chaotic midnight of my thoughts,
你在我不了解的世界
You dwell in a world I cannot comprehend.
往事像黑白的画面
Memories play out like black and white images,
重复你的身影和笑靥
Replaying your figure and your smile,
曾经许下的梦想和誓言
The dreams and vows once made,
怎留下我一个人实现
How can I be left alone to fulfill them?
情难牵梦难圆谁陪我话当年
Love is hard to grasp, dreams remain unfulfilled, who can share with me the tales of our past?
我的泪就像失控的狂雨纷飞
My tears fall like a wild storm unleashed, scattering everywhere.
情难牵人已远失去你心已缺
Love is hard to grasp, the person is long gone, in losing you, my heart feels so hollow.
满怀的遗恨为何当时我不在你身边
With a heart full of regrets, why wasn't I by your side back then?
情难牵梦难圆谁陪我话当年
Love is hard to grasp, dreams remain unfulfilled, who can share with me the tales of our past?
我的泪就像失控的狂雨纷飞
My tears fall like a wild storm unleashed, scattering everywhere.
情难牵人已远失去你心已缺
Love is hard to grasp, the person is long gone, in losing you, my heart feels so hollow.
满怀的遗恨为何当时我不在你身边
With a heart full of regrets, why wasn't I by your side back then?
