好久不见你还好吗 你的小狗长大了吗
Long time no see, how have you been? Has your little dog grown up?
我的围巾还围著吗 我的相片都丢了吧
Is my scarf still wrapped around me? I suppose all my photos are lost.
我剪不到后面头发 这个借口还不错吧(哎哟不错)
I can't cut my hair in the back, but this excuse isn't too bad, right? (Oh yeah, not bad)
一把剪刀一堆废话 还不是想求求你回来吧
A pair of scissors and a pile of nonsense, isn't it still just a way to ask you to come back?
麦搁一个人咧生气 乎伊烦恼乎伊操心
I get mad at being alone, worrying about you, fussing over you.
虽然不关我ㄟ代志 谁叫他是我ㄟ兄弟 耶
Even though it's not my business, who said he isn’t my brother? Yeah.
拢这么久就唰唰去 想想秋天就马过去 耶
It's been so long, just swiping by, thinking of autumn and it's all gone by. Yeah.
冬天来临他会怕冷 你不回来甘讲要我抱伊
When winter arrives, he'll be afraid of the cold; if you don’t come back, why ask me to hold him?
按呢甘好 是我不好 我没有紧紧抱住你
Oh, how nice! It's my fault, I didn’t hold you tight enough.
你说泪 留著很危险(很危险)
You said tears are dangerous to keep (very dangerous).
如果等雨一起(等雨一起) 流下不让同情发现
If we wait for the rain together (wait for the rain together) it falls without letting sympathy be discovered.
我对天空这个那个流星
I shout at the sky about this and that shooting star.
大喊后会不会有奇迹
Will there be a miracle after my loud call?
就算做朋友也没关系
Even if we just remain friends, that's okay.
为你改变了自己都不认识自己
I've changed myself so much, I don't even recognize who I am.
不是我跑去了整形 只是我拿出真心
It's not that I went for surgery, I just put my heart on the line.
开一瓶这个那个香槟
Pop open a bottle of this and that champagne.
去我的Mr.J餐厅
Let's go to my Mr. J restaurant.
点蜡烛顺便吃个甜品
Order some candles and maybe have a dessert.
庆祝你打死不连络的毅力
Celebrating your unyielding determination to cut off contact.
冷战早已经不流行 赶快回来到我身边
Cold wars are no longer in fashion, hurry back to my side.
麦搁一个人咧生气 乎伊烦恼乎伊操心
I can't hold back my anger alone, worrying and stressing about him.
虽然不关我ㄟ代志 谁叫他是我ㄟ兄弟 耶
Though it doesn't concern me, who cares, he's my brother, yeah.
拢这么久就唰唰去 想想秋天就马过去 耶
It's been so long, just let it go, thinking of autumn as it swiftly passes, yeah.
冬天来临他会怕冷 你不回来甘讲要我抱伊
When winter arrives, he'll be afraid of the cold, and you say you need me to hold him.
按呢甘好 是我不好 我没有紧紧抱住你(紧紧抱住你)
Is it like this? It's my fault, I didn’t hold you tight enough (hold you tight enough).
你说泪 留著很危险(很危险）
You say tears are dangerous to keep (dangerous to keep).
如果等雨一起(等雨一起) 流下不让同情发现
If we wait for the rain together (wait for the rain together), let it fall without letting sympathy notice.
我对天空这个那个流星
I look to the sky for this and that meteor.
大喊后会不会有奇迹
Will there be a miracle after I shout out loud?
就算做朋友也没关系
It's okay even if we're just friends
为你改变了自己都不认识自己
For you, I've changed so much I barely recognize myself
不是我跑去了整形 只是我拿出真心
It's not that I got a facelift, it’s just my heart laid bare
开一瓶这个那个香槟
Pop open a bottle of this and that champagne
去我的Mr.J餐厅
Head to my Mr. J restaurant
点蜡烛顺便吃个甜品
Order some candles and a sweet dessert
庆祝你打死不连络的毅力
Celebrating your fierce resolve to stay out of touch
冷战早已经不流行 赶快回来到我身边
The cold war is so last season, hurry back to my side
