望着月光 感觉很懒
Gazing at the moonlight, feeling so lazy
连床头灯都有点淡
Even the bedside lamp seems a bit dim
但从来没有空白
Yet there has never been a blank space
望着大钟 感觉很怪
Staring at the big clock, feeling so strange
犹如回忆只会专横
As if memories only know how to be overbearing
而从来没有选择
And there's never been a choice
床单很冷 皮肤很暖
The sheets are so cold, but my skin feels warm
也许因她相信浪漫
Maybe it's because she believes in romance
就此知道
That I come to know
离开很快 再见很慢
Leaving is quick, but saying goodbye takes time
宁愿从来没有她
I would rather she had never existed,
今晚不必习惯
No need to get used to it tonight,
辗转反侧都想她
Tossing and turning, I still think of her,
方知伤痛那么大
Only then do I realize how deep the pain is.
宁愿从来没有她
I would rather she had never existed,
应该一早习惯
I should have gotten used to it long ago,
孤单都不识孤单
Loneliness doesn't even know it's lonely,
方知放弃那么慢
Only then do I realize giving up takes so long.
道别甚么 一切荒诞
What is there to say goodbye to? Everything feels absurd,
连摇篮曲都有点坏
Even the lullaby seems a bit broken.
谁从来没有长大?
Who has never grown up?
愿望甚么 一切所爱
Wishes and all the love we crave,
犹如流星只会洒下
Like a shooting star that only falls,
而从来没有选择
Yet never making a choice.
桃花很远 昙花很近
Peach blossoms are far, while moonflowers are near.
也许因她相信大限
Perhaps because she believes in fate,
就此知道
This is when I come to know.
离开很快 永远很慢
Leaving is quick, but forever feels slow.
宁愿从来没有她
I’d rather have never known her at all.
今晚不必习惯
No need to feel at home tonight.
辗转反侧都想她
Tossing and turning, all I think of is her
方知伤痛那么大
Only then do I realize the pain is so immense
宁愿从来没有她
I’d rather she never existed at all
应该一早习惯
I should have learned to get used to this earlier
孤单都不识孤单
I don’t even know what loneliness means
方知放弃那么慢
Only then do I know how slow it is to let go
忘掉未够思念慢
Forgetting is still too slow, missing her lingers
看见天已转蓝
Seeing the sky has turned blue
宁愿从来没有她
I’d rather she never existed at all
今晚不必习惯
No need to get used to it tonight
辗转反侧都想她
Tossing and turning, all I think of is her
方知伤痛那么大
Only then do I realize the pain is so immense
宁愿从来没有她
I wish she had never existed
应该一早习惯
I should have gotten used to it long before
孤单都不识孤单
Even loneliness doesn't know what it means to be alone
方知放弃那么慢
Only then do I know letting go takes so long
宁愿从来没有她
I wish she had never existed
放弃太困难
Giving up is just too tough
忘掉未够思念慢
Forgetting isn’t enough, the longing lingers on slow
