天凉了 雨下了 妳走了
The air is cool, the rain has fallen, and you are gone.
清楚了 我爱的 遗失了
It's clear now, what I loved has been lost.
落叶飘在湖面上睡著了
Fallen leaves drift on the lake's surface, falling asleep.
想要放 放不掉 泪在飘
I want to let go, but can't; tears keep floating.
妳看看 妳看看不到
Look at this, look at what you can't see.
我假装过去不重要
I pretended the past didn't matter.
却发现自己办不到
But I found out I couldn't make it true.
说了再见 才发现再也见不到
Said goodbye, only to realize I can’t see you again.
我不能 就这样 失去妳的微笑
I can't just lose your smile like this.
口红待在桌角 而妳我找不到
Lipstick stays on the table edge, but I can't find you.
若角色对调 妳说好不好
If roles were reversed, would you agree?
说了再见 才发现再也见不到
After saying goodbye, I realize we can never meet again.
能不能 就这样 忍著痛 泪不掉
Can we just hold back the pain and keep the tears from falling?
说好陪我到老 永恒往那里找
You promised to be with me forever, but where do we find eternity?
再次拥抱 一分一秒 都好
One more embrace, every second counts.
天凉了 雨下了 妳走了
The air has turned cool, the rain has fallen, and you are gone.
清楚了 我爱的 遗失了
It's clear now, what I loved is lost.
落叶飘在湖面上睡著了
The fallen leaves drift on the lake's surface, quietly asleep.
想要放 放不掉 泪在飘
Wishing to let go, but can't, tears are floating.
妳看看 妳看看不到
Look at this, you can't see it.
我假装过去不重要
I pretend the past doesn't matter
却发现自己办不到
But I find I can't let it go
说了再见 才发现再也见不到
Said goodbye, only to realize I'll never see you again
我不能 就这样 失去妳的微笑
I can't just lose your smile like this
口红待在桌角 而妳我找不到
The lipstick rests on the table's edge, but I can't find you
若角色对调 妳说好不好
If the roles were reversed, would you be okay with that?
妳的笑 妳的好 脑海里 一直在绕
Your smile, your kindness, linger endlessly in my mind
我的手 忘不了 妳手的温度
My hands can't forget the warmth of yours
心 碎了一地 捡不回从前的心跳
My heart shattered on the ground, unable to reclaim the heartbeat from before
身陷过去我无力逃跑
Trapped in the past, I am powerless to escape
说再见 才发现再也见不到
Saying goodbye, only to find I can't see you again.
能不能 就这样 忍著痛 泪不掉
Can you just hold on, enduring the pain without shedding tears?
说好陪我到老 永恒往那里找
We promised to grow old together, where do we seek eternity?
再次拥抱 一分一秒 都好
One more embrace, every second counts, it's all good.
