找一千种借口却未能说服你
Finding a thousand excuses yet failing to convince you
其实你与我世界之间
Actually, between you and me
有著不多不少的阻隔
There are just the right amount of barriers
纵使得不到好结果却仍然靠近我
Even if I can't have a good outcome, you still come closer to me
其实你已对我太不错
In fact, you've been too good to me
这夜我却劝你离开我
Yet tonight, I advise you to leave me
我带著你是我的错
Having you is my mistake
我会令你彷徨无助
I will leave you feeling lost and helpless
由从前早早知道这伤感结果
If only I had known this sorrowful outcome long ago
我太任性 按我高兴
I'm too headstrong, doing what pleases me
偶尔遇上 无从平静
Occasionally encountering, with no way to be calm
由从前相恋一刹早知这结果
From the moment we fell in love, I knew this would be the outcome
纵使深深爱过
Even though I deeply loved you
当相恋感觉此际仍然最完美
When we were in love, it still felt so perfect at this moment
宁愿你脑里永远想起
I'd rather you always remember me in your mind
我亦不想他朝烧伤你
I also don't want the future to burn you
这刻即使分开了 心内仍然爱著你
Even at this moment, though we're apart, my heart still loves you
无论老了你再美不美
No matter how beautiful you are when you're old
我在暗里永远留恋你
In the shadows, I'll always long for you
我带著你是我的错
It was my mistake to carry you with me
我会令你彷徨无助
I will leave you lost and helpless,
由从前早早知道这伤感结果
If only I had known this sad outcome long ago,
我太任性 按我高兴
I'm too willful, doing as I please,
偶尔遇上 无从平静
Occasionally we meet, but there's no calm in sight,
由从前相恋一刹早知这结果
If only I had known this result from our love at first glance,
纵使深深爱过
Even if we loved so deeply,
旧日事回头说起 我总是逃避
When old memories resurface, I always run away,
从前的 来日的 完全不理
Ignoring the past and the future completely,
我带著你是我的错
It's my fault to have brought you along,
我会令你彷徨无助
I will leave you lost and helpless.
由从前早早知道这伤感结果
If I had known this sad outcome from the very beginning,
我太任性 按我高兴
I was too headstrong, doing as I pleased.
偶尔遇上 无从平静
Occasionally running into you, there's no way to be calm.
由从前相恋一刹早知分手结果
If I had known from our first love that it would end in heartbreak,
纵使深深爱过
Even though we loved deeply.
