走完这座城市
Walking through this city
思绪已静止
My thoughts have come to a stop
唱完一首你爱的歌
Singing the song you love
一下子
All at once
离开你的城市
Leaving your city
回忆已开始
Memories have begun
喝完一杯你爱的Latte
Finishing a cup of your favorite latte
想起了心事
Reminded of my hidden feelings
一个人的日子
Days spent alone
像飘零的叶子
Like falling leaves
看见爱的样子
Seeing the face of love
那是你的样子
That looks just like you
一个人的日子
Days spent alone
只对自己诚实
Only being true to myself
体会拥有的意思
Understanding what it means to own
本不需要自私
Never needing to be selfish
冷了 盖上被子
Feeling cold, pull up the blanket
温暖的手指
Warm fingers
小羊从一数到十
Little lamb counting from one to ten
一下子
In an instant
醒了 打开电视
Awake, turned on the TV
剧情已开始
The story has begun
看完一场你爱的电影
Watched a film that you loved
读不完相思
Endless longing to read
一个人的日子
A solitary day's embrace
像飘零的叶子
Like drifting, falling leaves
看见爱的样子
Saw the face of love
那是你的样子
That’s your reflection
一个人的日子
A solitary day's embrace
只对自己诚实
Only honest with myself
体会拥有的意思
To comprehend the meaning of having
本不需要自私
There’s no need to be selfish
想这样静静坐著
I want to just sit here quietly
承认我真是自由的
Admitting I am truly free
怀念著那些你为我做的
Missing those things you did for me
以为我都可以的
Thinking I could manage it all
以为我不怕寂寞的
Believing I wasn’t afraid of loneliness
关了灯却害怕天是黑的
Turning off the lights yet fearing the dark
一个人的日子
Days spent alone
数不完的日子
Countless days
想起你的样子
Thinking of your face
你微笑的样子
The way you smile
一个人的日子
The days of being alone
我和我的影子
Me and my shadow
想起忘了好久的事
Recalling things I forgot long ago
和说不出的字
And unsaid words
