无奈是万分不得意的等待
Helplessness is the bitter wait without end,
无奈是共你深爱却分开
Helplessness is loving you deeply yet apart.
路纵远你也应知道
Though the road is long, you should know,
我心中在等你回来
In my heart, I'm waiting for your return.
期待如望向飘飘那沧海
Hope is like gazing at the drifting, vast sea,
原来离别方可知爱的忍耐
It turns out parting reveals love's endurance.
原来离别了不免有悲哀
It turns out with parting, sorrow is unavoidable.
或许不惯有风风雨
Perhaps unaccustomed to the gusts and rains,
却知生命总有际遇
Yet life always has its twists and turns.
和你明白爱一生也不改
With you, I understand love remains unchanged for a lifetime.
陪你来寻觅孤单的勇气
To accompany you in seeking the courage of solitude
陪你来承受分开的痛悲
To stay with you through the pain of separation
在心中你我的天地
In our hearts, our world lies
是永远挚爱不抛弃
A love that's eternal, never to abandon
期待明日再紧紧靠一起
Hoping to be tightly close again tomorrow
原来离别了加深爱于心内
It turns out that parting deepens the love within
原来离别了始觉爱精采
It turns out that parting makes love spectacular
愿彼此永远的相爱
Wishing for our love to last forever
靠真心定可到未来
With true hearts, we can reach the future
和你明白爱一生也不改
With you, I understand love will never change in a lifetime
陪你来寻觅孤单的勇气
To seek the courage of solitude with you,
陪你来承受分开的痛悲
To bear the sorrow of separation with you,
在心中你我的天地
In our hearts lies our own little world,
是永远挚爱不抛弃
A love so deep, forever unyielding,
期待明日再紧紧靠一起
Hoping tomorrow we can hold each other tight again,
陪你来寻觅孤单的勇气
To seek the courage of solitude with you,
陪你来承受分开的痛悲
To bear the sorrow of separation with you,
在心中你我的天地
In our hearts lies our own little world,
是永远挚爱不抛弃
A love so deep, forever unyielding,
期待明日再紧紧靠一起
Hoping tomorrow we can hold each other tight again
期待明日再紧紧靠一起
Looking forward to tomorrow, holding each other tight once more
