我坐在书桌前 细数著墙上所有照片
I sit at my desk, counting all the photos on the wall.
感觉像坐时光机回到了童年
It feels like I'm in a time machine, back to my childhood.
小时的回忆历历出现眼前
Memories from my youth vividly appear before me.
穿著新球鞋 在操场不停打圈
Wearing new sneakers, running laps on the playground.
还记得那年夏天
I still remember that summer.
不管经过多久 还刻在心里面
No matter how much time has passed, it's engraved in my heart.
闭上眼回到从前 记起所有朋友的脸
Closing my eyes, I travel back to the past, recalling the faces of all my friends.
哭红双眼 悲伤的毕业典礼那天
With eyes red from crying, on that sad graduation day.
大家说好要朝著自己的梦 勇敢向前
Everyone promised to chase their dreams, bravely moving ahead.
别忘了我们的约定
Don't forget our promise.
我们那些美好回忆
Those beautiful memories we shared,
竟然会一幕幕地出现眼前
Suddenly flash before my eyes, one by one.
那时候的嘻哈欢笑
The laughter and joy from those times,
一直不间断地在我耳边出现
Continuously echoes in my ears.
虽然现在分隔两边
Even though we're now apart,
但心中一样要存著想念
I still keep the longing in my heart.
哪天路上偶然相见
On some chance encounter down the road,
可以一起笑著述说美好童年
We can laugh together, recounting our joyful childhood.
我坐在书桌前 细数著墙上所有照片
I sit by my desk, counting every photo on the wall,
感觉像坐时光机回到了童年
Feels like I've boarded a time machine back to my childhood.
小时的回忆历历出现眼前
Memories of youth vividly appear before my eyes
穿著新球鞋 在操场不停打圈
Wearing new sneakers, running in circles on the playground
还记得那年夏天
I still remember that summer
不管经过多久 还刻在心里面
No matter how much time has passed, it remains etched in my heart
闭上眼回到从前 记起所有朋友的脸
Shutting my eyes, I return to the past, recalling all my friends' faces
哭红双眼 悲伤的毕业典礼那天
With tear-stained eyes, on that sad graduation day
大家说好要朝著自己的梦 勇敢向前
Everyone promised to chase our dreams, bravely moving ahead
别忘了我们的约定
Don't forget our promise
也许回忆有点胆怯
Maybe the memories are a little shy
也许距离还很远
Maybe the distance is still very far
我们约定向梦想去追
We promise to chase our dreams
总有一天会实现 oh yeah
One day it will come true, oh yeah
闭上眼回到从前 记起所有朋友的脸
Close your eyes, return to the past, remember all the faces of friends
哭红双眼 悲伤的毕业典礼那天
With red eyes, on that sorrowful graduation day
大家说好要朝著自己的梦 勇敢向前
Everyone said we must pursue our dreams, brave and forward
别忘了我们的约定
Don't forget our promise
Fly away
别忘了我们的约定
Don't forget our promise
Fly away
别忘了我们的约定
Don't forget our promise
