心慢慢疼 慢慢冷
The heart slowly aches, slowly grows cold
慢慢等不到爱人
Slowly waiting for a lover who won't come
付出一生 收回几成?
Giving a lifetime, what do I get back?
情不能分 不能恨
Love cannot be divided, cannot be hated
不能太轻易信任
Cannot trust too easily
真爱一回尽是伤痕
True love only brings wounds in return
泪慢慢流 慢慢收
Tears slowly flow, slowly gather
慢慢变成了朋友
Slowly turning into friends
寂寞的夜独自承受
Lonely nights I bear all alone
爱不能久 不能够
Love cannot last, cannot endure
不能太容易拥有
Can't be too easy to possess
伤人的爱不堪回首
A love that hurts is hard to look back on
慢慢 慢慢没有感觉
Slowly, slowly, I feel nothing
慢慢 慢慢我被忽略
Slowly, slowly, I am ignored
你何忍看我憔悴
How can you bear to see me so haggard?
没有一点点安慰
Not a single trace of comfort
慢慢 慢慢心变成铁
Slowly, slowly, my heart turns to iron
慢慢 慢慢我被拒绝
Slowly, slowly, I am rejected
你何忍远走高飞
How can you bear to just fly away so high?
要我如何收拾这爱的残缺
How am I supposed to mend this broken love?
泪慢慢流 慢慢收
Tears slowly fall, slowly gathered
慢慢变成了朋友
Slowly becoming friends
寂寞的夜独自承受
Lonely nights borne in silence
爱不能久 不能够
Love cannot last, can't hold on
不能太容易拥有
Cannot be too easy to possess
伤人的爱不堪回首
A love that hurts is hard to look back on
慢慢 慢慢没有感觉
Slowly, slowly I feel no more
慢慢 慢慢我被忽略
Slowly, slowly I am overlooked
你何忍看我憔悴
How can you bear to see me pale?
没有一点点安慰
Not a bit of comfort to be found
慢慢 慢慢心变成铁
Slowly, slowly, my heart turns to iron
慢慢 慢慢我被拒绝
Slowly, slowly, I am being rejected
你何忍远走高飞
How can you bear to fly far away?
要我如何收拾这爱的残缺
How can I gather the fragments of this love?
慢慢 慢慢没有感觉
Slowly, slowly, there's no feeling left
慢慢 慢慢我被忽略
Slowly, slowly, I am being ignored
你何忍看我憔悴
How can you bear to see me wither?
没有一点点安慰
Not even a tiny bit of comfort
慢慢 慢慢心变成铁
Slowly, slowly, my heart turns to iron
慢慢 慢慢我被拒绝
Slowly, slowly, I am being rejected
你何忍远走高飞
How can you bear to fly far away, leaving me behind?
要我如何收拾这爱的残缺
What can I do to mend the flaws of this love?
