没有星
No stars
长夜是那样悄静
The long night is so silent
然已死的心
Yet a heart that has died
却不可安静
Cannot find peace
没有影
No shadows
没有她的每一夜
Each night without her
令我更感灰暗
Makes me feel more gray
更冷冰
Colder still
遇上她
Meeting her
在命里或注定
In fate or destined
茫茫人海中
In the vast sea of people,
却偏偏相认
we just happen to recognize each other.
或许
Perhaps,
没有结识过的话
if we hadn't met before,
或会喜欢这晚
we might enjoy this night,
没有星
without stars.
人去后 夜茫茫
Once the people are gone, the night is hazy.
她不知去向
She has vanished without a trace.
如今的我
The me of today
是彷徨 是渴望
is filled with confusion and longing.
人去后 夜茫茫
When people leave, the night is vast and dim
前路多漫长
The road ahead is infinitely long
我孤身走上
I walk alone
问谁来伴晚上
Who will accompany me through the night?
天色已接近黎明
The sky is nearing dawn
没有她
Without her
像没有日与夜
It's like there's no day or night
沉痛的每天
Every day is filled with pain
也不许安静
Nothing allows for silence
梦已空
Dreams have become empty
但我却一再等待
But I keep waiting endlessly
是我始终心醉
It's me who is forever enchanted
没法醒
Unable to awaken
没有她
Without her
像没有日与夜
Like there are no days or nights
沉痛的每天
Every painful day
也不许安静
Doesn't allow for calm
梦已空
The dream is already empty
但我却一再等待
But I keep waiting endlessly
是我始终心醉
It's me who is forever enchanted
没法醒
No way to awaken
人去后 夜茫茫
After people leave, the night is endless
她不知去向
She has vanished without a trace
如今的我
Here I stand today
是彷徨 是渴望
It's a mix of hesitation and desire
人去后 夜茫茫
After people leave, the night is endless
前路多漫长
The road ahead stretches long
我孤身走上
I walk alone upon it
问谁来伴晚上
Asking who will join me tonight
天色已接近黎明
The sky is nearing dawn
长夜里
In the long night,
梦中惊醒
I awaken from dreams,
曾掠过的风声
The whispers of the wind I once knew,
还是我未可分得清
Still, I can't quite tell them apart.
心中渗透着
In my heart, it seeps,
哭泣叫声
The sound of crying calls,
人去后 夜茫茫
After people leave, the night is vast,
她不知去向
She wanders, lost to me,
如今的我
Here I am now,
是彷徨 是渴望
Caught between hesitation and desire.
人去后 夜茫茫
After people leave, the night is vast
前路多漫长
The road ahead stretches long
我孤身走上
I walk alone
问谁来伴晚上
I ask who will accompany me tonight
天色已接近黎明
The sky is nearing dawn
天色已接近黎明
The sky is nearing dawn
