【八大戏剧台“冬季恋歌”主题曲】

相约在一个适合聊天的下午
We met in a lovely afternoon,
Perfect for catching up
分开很多年满以为没有包袱
After so many years apart,
I thought that there would no longer be any burden between us
我还打算回顾我们为何结束
Thinking that we could look back on how we ended
还想问你是不是一个人住
And asking if you are still living alone

当你的笑容给我礼貌的招呼
When your smile welcomed me politely
当我想诉说这些年来的感触
When I wanted to talk about how I felt all these years
你却点了满桌我最爱的食物
You’d already ordered a table full of my favourite dishes
介绍我看一本天文学的书
Introducing me to an astronomy book

我想哭不敢哭
I wanted to cry but I didn’t dare
难道这种相处
Wasn’t this kind of interaction
不像我们梦寐以求的幸福
Similar to our desired relationship goal
走下去这一步是宽容还是痛苦
To continue,
Is it an act of leniency or suffering?

我想哭怎么哭完成爱情旅途
I wanted to cry,
But how do I cry to complete this love journey?
谈天说地是最理想的出路
Chatting about random topics could be the most ideal way to go about it
谈音乐谈时事不说爱
Talking about music and current news,
But never about love
若无其事原来是最狠的报复
Treating that nothing had ever happened,
Was, to my realization, the most ruthless way of revenge

当我想坦白我们的乐多于苦
Just when I wanted to confess that our happiness was more than bitterness
你说水星它没有卫星好孤独
You said that Mercury does not have a moon,
How lonely
我才明白时间较分手还残酷
Then I realised,
Time is crueller than a break up
老朋友了再没资格不满足
To my old friend,
I have no right to be dissatisfied

我想哭不敢哭
I wanted to cry but I didn’t dare
难道这种相处
Wasn’t this kind of interaction
不像我们梦寐以求的幸福
Similar to our desired relationship goal
走下去这一步是宽容还是痛苦
To continue,
Is it an act of leniency or suffering?

你还记得吗 记忆的炎夏
Do you still remember,
That summer
散落在风中的已蒸发喧哗的都已沙哑
Those that had fallen with the breeze have vanished,
Those noises had turned hoarse

没结果的花 未完成的牵挂
Fruitless flower, unfinished missing thoughts
我们学会许多说法来掩饰不碰的伤疤
We learnt multiple ways to cover up hidden scars

因为我会想起你我害怕面对自己
Because I’ll think of you,
I’m afraid of facing myself
我的意志 总被寂寞吞食
My determination,
Has always been swallowed up by loneliness

因为你总会提醒过去总不会过去
Because you’d always remind,
That the past would never pass
有种 真爱不是我的
There’s a kind of true love,
Which is not mine

假如我不曾爱你我不会失去自己
If I had never loved you,
I would not have lost myself
想念的刺 钉住我的位置
The thorn grown from missing you,
Has pinned me at that very position

因为你总会提醒
Because you will always remind
尽管我得到世界 有些幸福不是我的
Even if I own the world,
There’s some happiness which will never be mine

你还记得吗 记忆的炎夏
Do you still remember,
That summer
我终于没选择的分岔最后又有谁到达
I finally had no choice but to part with you,
Did any of us reach our planned destination?

后来的我们(五月天):English Translation

[Here, After, Us] – Mayday

Composer: Monster
Lyricist: Ashin

So…
They said that your heart has seemed to fully recover,
And, there’s someone guarding you,
Should I be relieved or, heartbroken?

So…
Actually my life isn’t that bad as well,
Except those moments when memories rage,
But I’m still glad that I have tears to dilute the bitterness.

Those yesterdays, remain colorful.
I’m the keeper, of those yesterdays.
Perhaps you still remember, perhaps you have forgotten,
It doesn’t seem so important anymore.

I wish, here, after, you, could be happy,
That’s what, here, after, I, really hope.
Here, after, us, are still walking,
Just that our shoulders are no longer side by side,
Just that we have departed in different directions of life.

No matter how, here, after, story, goes,
Wonderful is how, here, after, life, should be.
Here, after, us, I really wish,
To see through my tears, that you’ve truly found your freedom.

My dear…
Reminiscing the ups and downs that we have been through,
They have brought us, here, to this very moment.
They have taught us, that life, is made up of losses and gains.

Wrapping up our regrets with new happiness,
We began our journey to the future.
Not matter how unwilling, we have to break away from the past.
Never turn back to look at me, my dear.

I wish, here, after, you, could be happy,
That’s what, here, after, I, really hope.
Here, after, us, are still walking,
Just that our shoulders are no longer side by side,
Just that we have departed in different directions of life.

No matter how, here, after, story, goes,
Wonderful is how, here, after, life, should be.
Here, after, us, I really wish,
To see through my tears, that you’ve truly found your happiness.

Somewhere, parallel world, you, had stayed.
Somewhere, parallel world, you, with smiles.
Somewhere, parallel world, then, still deeply in love,
Pursuing eternity on behalf of us.
Sufficient, if we could think in that manner.

No matter how, here, after, story, goes,
Worth is how, here, after, life, should feel.
Here, after, us, I really wish,
To see through my tears, that you’ve truly found your freedom.

[后来的我们] – 五月天
作曲:怪兽
作词:阿信

然后呢
他们说你的心 似乎痊愈了
也开始有个人 为你守护着
我该心安或是 心痛呢

然后呢
其实我的日子 也还可以呢
除了回忆肆虐 的某些时刻
庆幸还有眼泪 冲淡苦涩

而那些昨日 依然缤纷著 它们都有我 细心收藏着
也许你还记得 也许你都忘了
也不是那麽 重要了

只期待 后来的你 能快乐
那就是 后来的我 最想的
后来的我们 依然走着
只是不再并肩了
朝各自的人生 追寻了

无论是 后来故事 怎么了
也要让 后来人生 精彩著
后来的我们 我期待着
泪水中能看到 你真的 自由了

亲爱的
回忆我们共同 走过的曲折
是那些带我们 来到了这一刻
让珍贵的人生 有失有得

用新的幸福 把遗憾包著
就这么朝着 未来前进了
有再多的不舍 也要狠心割舍
别回头看我 亲爱的

只期待 后来的你 能快乐
那就是 后来的我 最想的
后来的我们 依然走着
只是不再并肩了
朝各自的人生 追寻了

无论是 后来故事 怎么了
也要让 后来人生 精彩著
后来的我们 我期待着
泪水中能看到 你真的 幸福快乐

在某处 另一个你 留下了
在那里 另一个我 微笑着
另一个我们 还深爱着
代替我们永恒著
如果能这么想 就够了

无论是 后来故事 怎么了
也要让 后来人生 值得
后来的我们 我期待着
泪水中能看到 你真的 自由了。
