故事的小黄花
The little yellow flower of the story,
从出生那年就飘着
Has been floating since the year of my birth.
童年的荡秋千
The childhood swing,
随记忆一直晃到现在
Swaying with memories all the way to now.
Re So So Si Do Si La
Re So So Si Do Si La,
So La Si Si Si Si La Si La So
So La Si Si Si Si La Si La So.
吹着前奏望着天空
Blowing the prelude, gazing at the sky,
我想起花瓣试着掉落
I recall the day petals tried to fall,
为你翘课的那一天
The day I skipped class for you,
花落的那一天
The day the flowers fell.
教室的那一间
In that classroom,
我怎么看不见
Why can't I see?
消失的下雨天
The rainy day that vanished,
我好想再淋一遍
I long to feel it once more.
没想到失去的勇气我还留着
Didn’t expect to find the courage I thought I lost,
好想再问一遍
I really want to ask again,
你会等待还是离开
Will you wait or will you go?
刮风这天我试过握着你手
On this windy day, I tried holding your hand,
但偏偏雨渐渐大到我看你不见
But the rain just got heavier, and you faded from view.
还要多久我才能在你身边
How much longer until I can be by your side?
等到放晴的那天也许我会比较好一点
Maybe I'll feel a little better on the day it clears up.
从前从前有个人爱你很久
Once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time.
但偏偏风渐渐把距离吹得好远
But the wind gradually blew the distance far away.
好不容易又能再多爱一天
It was hard-earned just to love one more day.
但故事的最后你好像还是说了拜拜
But in the end of the story, it seems you still said goodbye.
为你翘课的那一天
The day I skipped class for you.
花落的那一天
The day the flowers fell.
教室的那一间
That classroom room.
我怎么看不见
Why can't I see it?
消失的下雨天
The disappearing rainy days.
我好想再淋一遍
I really want to get drenched once more
没想到失去的勇气我还留着
Never thought I'd still hold the courage I lost
好想再问一遍
I really want to ask again
你会等待还是离开
Will you wait or will you leave?
刮风这天我试过握着你手
On this windy day, I tried holding your hand
但偏偏雨渐渐大到我看你不见
But slowly the rain became so heavy, I couldn't see you
还要多久我才能在你身边
How much longer until I can be by your side?
等到放晴的那天也许我会比较好一点
Maybe by the time the skies clear, I'll feel a little better
从前从前有个人爱你很久
Once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time
偏偏风渐渐把距离吹得好远
But alas, the wind has blown the distance so far away
好不容易又能再多爱一天
Finally, I can love you for one more day
但故事的最后你好像还是说了拜拜
But in the end of the story, it seems you still said goodbye
刮风这天我试过握着你手
On this windy day, I tried to hold your hand
但偏偏雨渐渐大到我看你不见
But the rain just kept pouring, until I could no longer see you
还要多久我才能够在你身边
How much longer until I can be by your side?
等到放晴那天也许我会比较好一点
When the sunny day comes, maybe I'll feel a bit better
从前从前有个人爱你很久
Once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time
但偏偏雨渐渐把距离吹得好远
But the rain, alas, blew the distance so far away
好不容易又能再多爱一天
Finally, I can love you for one more day
但故事的最后你好像还是说了拜
But in the end of the story, it seems you still said goodbye
