从我眼中 你看到什么
What do you see from my eyes?
有没有一种令人心悸的坠落
Is there a kind of heart-stopping fall?
就像夜空多少流星闪过
Like countless shooting stars across the night sky,
你抓不到一颗 属于我的梦
You can't catch a single dream that belongs to me.
每一天 如海浪般潮涌
Every day, like waves crashing in,
向我袭卷 却不能够停留
They rush towards me but cannot stay.
每一天 枯坐在黑暗中
Every day, I sit lonely in the dark,
曲腿弓背 望穿无穷虚空
With my knees drawn up, gazing into infinite emptiness.
Oh yeah 我真的好累
Oh yeah, I'm really so tired.
你为何不了解
Why don't you understand?
Baby 我的世界已经瓦解 变成
Baby, my world has collapsed and turned into
水蓝色眼泪
Aqua-blue tears
是心碎流的血 是天真的幻灭
Blood flowing from a shattered heart, the disillusionment of innocence
所有水蓝色眼泪
All the aqua-blue tears
快融成一片雪 让我的忧伤冬眠
Quickly melting into a patch of snow, letting my sorrow hibernate
蓝色的泉 彩绘了子夜
The blue spring, coloring the midnight
坠落的重量产生一些音乐
The weight of falling creates some music
你走过来足边水珠飞溅
As you walk by, droplets splash around your feet
所有幻想 遗忘于一瞬间
All dreams forgotten in an instant
每一天 如海浪般潮涌
Every day, like tides crashing upon the shore
向我袭卷 却不能够停留
Rushing towards me, yet unable to stay.
每一天 枯坐在黑暗中
Every day, sitting still in the dark.
曲腿弓背 望穿无穷虚空
Crossed legs, hunched back, gazing into endless void.
Oh yeah 我真的好累
Oh yeah, I’m really so tired.
你为何不了解
Why don’t you understand?
Baby 我的世界已经瓦解 变成
Baby, my world has already shattered, transformed into
水蓝色眼泪
Aqua blue tears.
是心碎流的血 是天真的幻灭
The blood from a broken heart, the disillusionment of innocence.
所有水蓝色眼泪
All the aqua blue tears,
快融成一片雪 让我的忧伤冬眠
Quickly melting into a pile of snow, letting my sorrow hibernate.
水蓝色眼泪
Aqua-colored tears
是心碎流的血 是天真的幻灭
Are the blood from a broken heart, the disillusionment of innocence
所有水蓝色眼泪
All the aqua-colored tears
快融成一片雪 让我的忧伤冬眠
Quickly melting into a patch of snow, letting my sorrow hibernate
Oh yeah 我真的好累
Oh yeah, I'm really so tired
你为何不了解
Why don't you understand?
Baby 我的世界已经瓦解 变成
Baby, my world has already crumbled, turned into
水蓝色眼泪
Aqua-colored tears
是心碎流的血 是天真的幻灭
Are the blood from a broken heart, the disillusionment of innocence
所有水蓝色眼泪
All the aqua-colored tears
快融成一片雪 让我的忧伤冬眠
Quickly melt into a patch of snow, let my sorrow hibernate
水蓝色眼泪
Aquamarine tears
是心碎流的血 是天真的幻灭
Are the blood from a broken heart, are the disillusionment of innocence

All the aquamarine tears
快融成一片雪 让我的忧伤冬眠
Quickly melt into a patch of snow, let my sorrow hibernate
