走过跟你走过的街
Walking through the streets we've walked together
难过更深刻一些
The pain cuts even deeper now
有些事无法改写
Some things cannot be rewritten
我终于了解
I finally understand
是我把爱梦得太完美
It was me who dreamt of love too perfectly
多完美还是会枯萎
No matter how perfect, it will still wither
你最后那一句再见
Your last goodbye left me
才让我学会怎么放爱去飞
Learning how to let love take flight
擦干了眼泪 我不要安慰
Wiping away my tears, I don't want comfort
雨季会过去才对
The rainy season is meant to pass
都是黑咖啡
It's all just black coffee
苦得让我今晚不能入睡
Bitter enough to keep me awake tonight
不想活在重播的情节
I don't want to live in a replayed scene
你知道我想著谁
You know who I'm thinking of
虽然梦想难免被现实打碎
Though dreams are bound to be shattered by reality
I'm on my way
走过跟你走过的街
Walking down the streets we once walked together
难过更深刻一些
The pain feels a bit deeper now
有些事无法改写
Some things just can't be rewritten
我终于了解
I've finally come to understand
是我把爱梦得太完美
It's me who dreamed of love too perfectly
多完美还是会枯萎
No matter how perfect, it will still wither
你最后那一句再见
Your last words of goodbye
才让我学会怎么放爱去飞
Are what taught me how to let love fly free
擦干了眼泪 我不要安慰
Wiping away my tears, I don't want consolation
雨季会过去才对
The rainy season should eventually pass
都是黑咖啡
All that's left is black coffee
苦得让我今晚不能入睡
Bitter enough to keep me from sleeping tonight
不想活在重播的情节
I don't want to live in a replayed scenario
你知道我想著谁
You know who I'm thinking about
虽然梦想难免被现实打碎
Though dreams are bound to be shattered by reality,
I'm on my way
我在没你的世界
In a world without you,
回头对你说
I turn back to say to you,
Goodbye
擦干了眼泪 我不要安慰
Wiping away the tears, I don't want comfort.
雨季会过去才对
The rainy season should pass,
都是黑咖啡
It's all just black coffee,
苦得让我今晚不能入睡
Bitter enough to keep me awake tonight.
不想活在重播的情节
I don't want to live in a replay of old scenes.
不再跟自己作对
No longer fighting against myself
快乐伤悲 天亮天黑
Joy and sorrow, day breaks and night falls
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
