当日正是绵绵雨天时
It was a day of endless rain,
让眼光痴痴在这雨中写字
Let your gaze linger, writing in this downpour,
来诉说心仪 像梦似的开始
To express my heart's desire, like a dreamy beginning.
慰解失意的疯子 心中的天使
Soothing the madman of disappointment, the angel within.
一起走向未来日子
Together we stride towards the days ahead,
﹡今天以后一心一意 梦里都相思
*From today on, with a single heart, dreaming in longing.
真的爱 几经风雨 患变显心痴
True love, through storms, reveals a heart's madness.
希望呀希望 吸引情人堕陷阱
Hope, oh hope, pulling lovers into the trap,
但我的真心 今日 昨日 不见有分别
Yet my sincere heart, today and yesterday, shows no divide.
是你想高飞 只因因我飞不起
It's you who wishes to soar, only because I can't fly.
(当天) 心中的天使 今天早已淡忘自己
(On that day) The angel in my heart has long forgotten itself
△不必说是 迫不得已 忘情负义
No need to say it's out of necessity, forgetting feelings and loyalty
只知道 一心一意 浮沉在往事
Only know, wholeheartedly, drifting in the past
△不必说是 迫不得已 忘情负义
No need to say it's out of necessity, forgetting feelings and loyalty
只知道 一心一意 浮沉在往事
Only know, wholeheartedly, drifting in the past
雨中失意的疯子 高飞的天使
The madman lost in the rain, the flying angel
分开走向未来日子
Parting ways towards future days
bo bo bo 迫不得已 忘情负义
bo bo bo out of necessity, forgetting feelings and loyalty
bo bo bo一心一意 浮沉在往事
bo bo bo wholeheartedly, drifting in the past
△不必说是 迫不得已
No need to say it's out of necessity
(何必将爱定义)
Why define love at all?
只知道 一心一意 浮沉在往事
Only knowing, wholeheartedly, adrift in the past.
忘情负义
Forgetful of affection, ungrateful.
bo bo bo一心一意
Bo bo bo, wholeheartedly.
(何必将爱定义)
Why define love at all?
