雨淋湿了天空 毁得很讲究
The rain has soaked the sky, a destruction so refined.
你说你不懂为何在这时牵手
You say you don't understand why we hold hands at this time.
我晒干了沉默 悔得很冲动
I've dried out my silence, regretting with haste.
就算这是做错 也只是怕错过
Even if this is wrong, I'm just afraid to miss.
在一起叫 (梦) 分开了叫 (痛)
Together it's called (dream), apart it’s just (pain).
是不是说没有做完的梦最痛?
Isn't it said that the unfulfilled dream hurts the most?
迷路的后 (果) 我能承受
The after (effects) of being lost, I can bear.
这最后的出口在爱过了才有
This final exit only exists after we’ve loved.
能不能给我一首歌的时间
Can you give me a song’s worth of time,
紧紧的把那拥抱变成永远? (拥抱变成永远)
To tightly turn that embrace into forever? (Embrace into forever)
在我的怀里 你不用害怕失眠
In my arms, you need not fear the sleepless nights.
哦 如果你想忘记 我也能失忆
Oh, if you wish to forget, I can forget too.
能不能给我一首歌的时间
Could you give me the time of a song?
把故事听到最后才说再见? (最后才说再见)
Let’s listen to the story till the end before saying goodbye? (Before saying goodbye at the end)
你送我的眼泪 让它留在雨天
The tears you gave me, let them stay on rainy days.
哦 越过你划的线 我定了勇气的终点
Oh, crossing the line you drew, I’ve set the endpoint of my courage.
雨淋湿了天空 毁得很讲究
The rain drenched the sky, it was a meticulous destruction.
你说你不懂我为何在这时牵手
You say you don’t understand why I hold your hand at this moment.
我晒干了沉默 悔得很冲动
I've dried the silence, regretting my impulsive act.
就算这是做错 也只是怕错过
Even if this is wrong, I'm only afraid of missing out.
在一起叫 (梦) 分开了叫 (痛)
Together we call it (dream), apart we call it (pain)
是不是说没有做完的梦最痛?
Isn't it said that unfulfilled dreams hurt the most?
迷路的后 (果) 我能承受
The outcome of being lost, I can bear it
这最后的出口在爱过了才有
This final exit only exists after love has been felt
能不能给我一首歌的时间
Can you give me the time of a song?
紧紧的把那拥抱变成永远? (拥抱变成永远)
Tightly turning that embrace into forever? (embrace into forever)
在我的怀里 你不用害怕失眠
In my arms, you need not fear sleepless nights
哦 如果你想忘记 我也能失忆
Oh, if you want to forget, I can forget too
能不能给我一首歌的时间
Can you give me the time of a song?
把故事听到最后才说再见? (最后才说再见)
To hear the story to the end before saying goodbye? (before saying goodbye)
你送我的眼泪 让它留在雨天
The tears you gave me, let them stay in the rainy days.
哦 越过你划的线 我定了勇气的终点
Oh, crossing the lines you've drawn, I’ve settled the endpoint of my courage.
哦 你说我不该不该 不该在这时候说了我爱你 (说了我爱你)
Oh, you say I shouldn’t, shouldn’t, say 'I love you' at this time (say 'I love you').
要怎么证明我没有说谎的力气?
How can I prove I have the strength to not lie?
哦 请告诉我 暂停算不算放弃? (算不算放弃?)
Oh, please tell me, does pausing count as giving up? (count as giving up?)
我只有 (只有) 一天的回忆 哦
I only have (only) one day's worth of memories, oh.
能不能给我一首歌的时间
Can you give me the time of a song?
紧紧的把那拥抱变成永远? (拥抱变成永远)
Tightly turning that embrace into forever? (embrace into forever)
在我的怀里 你不用害怕失眠
In my arms, you need not fear sleepless nights.
哦 如果你想忘记 我也能失忆
Oh, if you want to forget, I can also lose my memory.
能不能给我一首歌的时间
Can you give me the time of a song?
哦 把故事听到最后才说再见? (最后才说再见)
Oh, do you only say goodbye at the very end of the story? (Only at the very end)
你送我的眼泪 让它留在雨天
The tears you gave me, let them stay on rainy days.
哦 越过你划的线 我定了勇气的终点
Oh, crossing the line you drew, I've decided the end of my courage.
你说我不该不该 不该在这时说了爱你
You said I shouldn't, shouldn't, shouldn't say I love you right now.
要怎么证明我没有力气? 告诉我 暂停算不算放弃?
How can I prove that I have no strength? Tell me, does pausing count as giving up?
你说我不该不该 不该在这时才说爱你
You said I shouldn't, shouldn't, shouldn't only say I love you right now.
要怎么证明我没有力气? 我只有一天的回忆
How can I prove that I have no strength? I only have one day's worth of memories.
