  1. 巷口过去熟悉 照后镜脑海清晰

    At the street corner, I slip away from the familiar past,

  2. 距离就像打滑飘移 看似接近

    In the rearview mirror, you appear clearer than in my mind.

  3. 闪了一下代表我还在意 看见他的这么不小心(不小心)

    The distance between us feels like a drift and a slide,

  4. 喇叭代表离去 放心理解游戏

    Far apart yet seemingly close at the same time.

  5. 呼啸而过引擎 讨厌旋律

    The headlights flashed once, signaling that I still care,

  6. 穿梭城市 变成一首幻想曲

    I saw you getting into his car, careless as can be (careless).

  7. 一边疯狂纪录一边璀璨忘记(忘记忘记忘记忘记)

    The horn honked twice, signaling it's time for me to go,

  8. 发脾气上车香味留在

    Don't worry, I understand the game we play.

  9. 对不起可以关门大力

    The roaring engine that rushes by,

  10. 点心不是点心

    Is the melody you despise the most.

  11. 冰淇淋溶化谎言身边美丽

    Ice cream melts, lying beside your beauty,

  12. 没有雨刷还是不停左右

    Without the rain, the wipers still sweep left and right.

  13. 就像回忆开始挥了挥手

    Just like memories start waving goodbye to me,

  14. 仪表转动会不会

    The dashboard spins, guessing if I'll understand.

  15. 速度承诺

    No matter how fast, I can't rewind the promises.

  16. 完美借口

    Lower the car window, I hear your perfect excuse,

  17. 音乐假装感动

    Turn up the music, let me pretend to feel moved.

  18. 不用自导自演心痛

    Caring you don't need to self-direct this heartache,

  19. 我看不懂难过

    I can't comprehend, it makes my sorrow deeper.

  20. 巷口过去熟悉 照后镜脑海清晰

    At the alley's mouth, I drift away from the past, in the rearview, you are clearer than in my mind.

  21. 距离就像打滑飘移 看似接近

    You and I are like slipping and drifting, far apart yet seeming so close.

  22. 闪了一下代表我还在意 看见他的这么不小心(不小心)

    The headlights flashed once, a sign that I still care; I saw you carelessly getting into his car (so careless).

  23. 喇叭代表离去 放心理解游戏

    The horn honked twice, which means I will leave; don’t worry, I understand this game.

  24. 呼啸而过引擎 讨厌旋律

    The roaring engine is the melody you hate the most.

  25. 穿梭城市 变成一首幻想曲

    Winding through the city, turning into a fantasy tune.

  26. 一边疯狂纪录一边璀璨忘记(忘记忘记忘记忘记)

    While wildly recording, forgetting all the dazzling moments (forget, forget, forget, forget).

  27. 发脾气上车香味留在

    You slammed the door in a fit, leaving your fragrance inside the car.

  28. 对不起可以关门大力

    I’m sorry, if you’re leaving, please close the door gently.

  29. 点心不是点心

    Put in some effort, you said it’s not a snack meant for eating.

  30. 冰淇淋溶化谎言身边美丽

    The ice cream melts, lying beside you, a beautiful lie.

  31. 没有雨刷还是不停左右

    No more rain, the wipers still sweep left and right,

  32. 就像回忆开始挥了挥手

    Like memories that started waving goodbye to me,

  33. 仪表转动会不会

    The dashboard turns, guessing if I will understand,

  34. 速度承诺

    No matter how fast, can't retrieve the promises made,

  35. 完美借口

    Rolling down the window to hear your perfect excuses,

  36. 音乐假装感动

    Turn up the music, let me pretend to feel moved,

  37. 不用自导自演心痛

    You don’t need to script your own heartbreak,

  38. 我看不懂难过

    I can't comprehend, making it harder to bear,

  39. 没有雨刷还是不停左右

    No more rain, the wipers still sweep left and right,

  40. 就像回忆开始挥了挥手

    Like memories that started waving goodbye to me.

  41. 仪表转动会不会

    The dashboard spins, guessing if I'll understand

  42. 速度承诺

    No matter how fast, I can't reclaim the promise

  43. 完美借口

    Lower the window, listening to your perfect excuse

  44. 音乐假装感动

    Turn up the music, let me pretend I'm moved

  45. 不用自导自演心痛

    You, so thoughtful, needn't direct your own heartbreak

  46. 我看不懂难过

    I can't comprehend, it only makes me sadder
