忘了从什么时候
I forgot when it all began
开始做同一个梦
To share the same dream every night
你总是背对著我
You always turn your back on me
怎么也不肯回头
Refusing to look behind
当梦与现实交错
As dreams and reality entwine
才发现爱变空了
Only then did I see love had run dry
好像有一个黑洞
It feels like there's a black hole
把爱全都给吞没
Swallowing all the love whole
我终于渐渐明白
I finally start to understand
爱太空那种无奈
The helplessness of love's vast expanse
让我们看不到未来
We're unable to see the future,
也没勇气能走开
And lack the courage to walk away.
原来爱与不爱谁也不能置身事外
It turns out love and indifference leave no one untouched.
昨天明天都抵不过一个现在
Yesterday and tomorrow can't compare to this very moment.
我们都该学著对自己坦白
We should all learn to be honest with ourselves.
曾经爱过痛过哭过笑过都是种精采
Having loved, hurt, cried, and laughed is a beautiful tale.
不要让爱空了对白只剩下无奈
Don’t let love become empty, leaving only helplessness behind.
爱太空无法重来
Love is so vast it can't be relived.
忘了从什么时候
I’ve forgotten when it started,
开始做同一个梦
To dream the same dream.
你总是背对著我
You always turn your back to me
怎么也不肯回头
Unwilling to look back at all
当梦与现实交错
When dreams and reality intertwine
才发现爱变空了
Only then do I realize love has gone hollow
好像有一个黑洞
It's as if there's a black hole
把爱全都给吞没
That devours all our love whole
我终于渐渐明白
I finally begin to understand
爱太空那种无奈
The helplessness of loving in this space
让我们看不到未来
That keeps us from seeing the future
也没勇气能走开
And leaves us without the courage to walk away
原来爱与不爱谁也不能置身事外
It turns out love and indifference, no one can escape unscathed.
昨天明天都抵不过一个现在
Yesterday and tomorrow cannot compare to a single now.
我们都该学著对自己坦白
We should all learn to be honest with ourselves.
曾经爱过痛过哭过笑过都是种精采
Once loved, once hurt, once cried, once laughed—it's all a kind of brilliance.
不要让爱空了对白只剩下无奈
Don't let love run dry, leaving only helpless lines.
爱太空无法重来
Love is so vast, it can't be relived.
原来爱与不爱谁也不能置身事外
It turns out love and indifference, no one can escape unscathed.
昨天明天都抵不过一个现在
Yesterday and tomorrow cannot compare to a single now.
我们都该学著对自己坦白 相信爱
We should all learn to be honest with ourselves, trusting love.
爱过痛过哭过笑过都是种精采
Once loved, once hurt, once cried, once laughed—it's all a kind of brilliance.
不要让爱空了对白只剩下无奈
Don't let our love end with empty lines full of helplessness,
爱太空怎能重来
How can love in the void ever return?
