妳说我像一个小孩
You say I'm like a child
总爱让妳猜
Always making you guess
我说妳才像个小孩
I say you're the one who's a child
总要我说才明白
Only when I speak, you understand
有些事太快 失去了等待
Some things come so fast, we lose the chance to wait
障碍 没了期待
Obstacles, and hope fades away
我们的爱 怎么才自然
Our love, how can it feel so natural?
每次沟通不来
Every time we fail to connect
就要离开 就说不要爱
You want to leave, and say not to love
我掉进爱情悬崖 跌太深爬不出来
I fell into the cliff of love, too deep to climb out
下降的速度太快 来不及踏上未来
The speed of my descent is too fast, I can't catch up with the future.
妳的爱反复徘徊 打乱我呼吸节拍
Your love keeps circling back, messing up my breath's rhythm.
该怎么逃开 我控制不来
How do I escape? I can't control it.
我掉进爱情悬崖 回想起妳的可爱
I've fallen off the cliff of love, recalling how adorable you were.
傻傻的还在等待 以为妳还会回来
Foolishly still waiting, thinking you might return.
妳的脸慢慢离开 时间快将我掩埋
Your face slowly fades away, time is about to bury me.
消失的太快 我负荷不来
It vanishes too quickly; I can't bear it.
妳说我像一个小孩
You say I’m like a child.
总爱让妳猜
Always making you guess.
我说妳才像个小孩
I say you're the one acting like a child.
总要我说才明白
You only understand when I say it out loud
有些事太快 失去了等待
Some things move too fast, we've lost the chance to wait
障碍 没了期待
Obstacles have taken away our hopes
我们的爱 怎么才自然
Our love, how can it feel so natural?
每次沟通不来
Every time we can't communicate
就要离开 就说不要爱
It's time to leave, just say don't love me
我掉进爱情悬崖 跌太深爬不出来
I've fallen into the cliff of love, too deep to climb out
下降的速度太快 来不及踏上未来
The speed of descent is too fast, no time to step into the future
妳的爱反复徘徊 打乱我呼吸节拍
Your love keeps circling back, disrupting my breath's rhythm
该怎么逃开 我控制不来
How do I escape? I can't control it
我掉进爱情悬崖 回想起妳的可爱
I've fallen into the abyss of love, recalling your sweetness,
傻傻的还在等待 以为妳还会回来
Foolishly still waiting, thinking you'd come back to me.
妳的脸慢慢离开 时间快将我掩埋
Your face slowly fading away, time is about to bury me,
消失的太快 我负荷不来
You've vanished too quickly, I can't bear this pain.
