美丽的女孩那自在的模样
The beautiful girl, so at ease in her own way,
总是很难被记得
Is always hard to be remembered.
迷人的男孩那即兴的渴望
The charming boy, with his spontaneous desire,
背对理想快乐著
Turns his back on ideals, choosing to be happy.
不准情绪化 不准偷偷想念 不准回头
No emotions allowed, no secretly missing, no looking back.
作家命中 这微苦的做作
The writer's fate, this slightly bitter pretense,
恋爱漫游中
In the romance of wandering,
个个都似懂非懂
Everyone seems to understand but not quite.
下雨只不过 有谁为你刚哭过
Rain is just a sign of someone who cried for you,
孤独只不过 一人走一段缓坡
Loneliness is just one person walking a gentle slope.
成熟只不过 等一切都不假思索
Maturity is simply waiting for everything to be thoughtless.
心偶尔执著 在过于喧嚣的场所
The heart occasionally clings in the midst of noisy places.
习惯是和世界妥协的倔强
Familiarity is the stubborn compromise with the world.
接受误解的总和
Embracing the sum of misunderstandings.
最痛的感情像最深刻的谎
The most painful feelings are like the deepest lies.
爱不一定是真的
Love isn't always the truth.
你正寻觅的 等于你正渴望 正失去的
What you're seeking equals what you're longing for, what you're losing.
计算命中 每个擦身而过
Calculating fate in every fleeting encounter.
恋爱漫游中
In the wandering of love,
个个都似懂非懂
Everyone seems to understand but doesn't quite.
青春只不过 雨后地上的霓虹
Youth is just a neon glow on the ground after rain.
时间只不过 反反复复的生活
Time is merely the cycle of life repeating itself.
幸福只不过 等一切都不假思索
Happiness is just waiting for everything to flow without thought.
咖啡只不过 正写著城市的小说
Coffee is simply writing the city's stories.
失去的终究会失去吧
What is lost will ultimately be lost, right?
想念的终究会相遇吧
What is missed will surely meet again, right?
下雨只不过 有谁为你刚哭过
Rain is just someone weeping for you just now.
孤独只不过 一人走一段缓坡
Loneliness is just walking a gentle slope alone.
成熟只不过 等一切都不假思索
Maturity is simply waiting for everything to flow without thought.
心偶尔执著 在过于喧嚣的场所
The heart sometimes lingers in overly noisy places.
心总会停留 在远离喧嚣的场所
The heart will always linger in a place far from the noise,
在青春迷失的咖啡之中
In the coffee where youth gets lost,
找到你的
I find you.
