天边夕阳再次映上我的脸庞
The sunset at the horizon once again reflects on my face
再次映著我那不安的心
Once more it shines on this restless heart of mine
这是什么地方? 依然是如此的荒凉
What is this place? Still so desolate and bare
那无尽的旅程如此漫长
That endless journey stretches long, beyond compare
我是永远向著远方 独行的浪子
I am forever wandering, a lone drifter in the night
你是茫茫人海之中 我的女人
You are my woman, lost among the countless sights
在异乡的路上 每一个寒冷的夜晚
On the foreign road, through each cold and lonely night
这思念它如刀 让我伤痛
This longing stabs like a knife, bringing me pain and fright
总是在梦里 我看到你无助的双眼
Always in dreams, I see your helpless eyes so bright
我的心又一次被唤醒
My heart awakens once again, to seek the light
我站在这里 想起和你曾经离别情景
I stand here, remembering the scene of our farewell.
你站在人群中间 那么孤单
You stand in the midst of the crowd, so alone.
那是你破碎的心 我的心却那么狂野
That is your broken heart, while mine is wild and free.
你在我的心里永远是故乡
You are forever my hometown, deep within my heart.
你总为我独自守候 沉默等待
You always wait for me in silence, alone and patient.
在异乡的路上 每一个寒冷的夜晚
On the road in a foreign land, every cold night falls.
这思念它如刀 让我伤痛
This longing cuts like a knife, bringing me pain.
总是在梦里 我看到你无助的双眼
Always in my dreams, I see your helpless eyes.
我的心又一次被唤醒
Once again, my heart awakens at your call.
我站在这里 想起和你曾经离别情景
I stand here, remembering the scene of our farewell.
你站在人群中间 那么孤单
You stand alone in the crowd, so lonely,
那是你破碎的心 我的心却那么狂野
That’s your shattered heart, while mine is wild and free.
总是在梦里 我看到你无助的双眼
Always in my dreams, I see your helpless gaze,
我的心又一次被唤醒
My heart awakens once again,
总是在梦里 看到自己走在归乡路上
Always in my dreams, I walk the homeward way,
你站在夕阳下面 容颜娇艳
You stand beneath the sunset, your beauty aglow,
那是你衣裙漫飞 那是你温柔如水
That’s your dress dancing in the wind, that’s your tenderness like water.
