陳奕迅 - Shi Nian (10 Years) [十年]
如果那两个字没有颤抖
ru guo na liang ge zi mei you zhan dou
if those two words did not come out trembling
我不会发现我难受
wo bu hui fa xian wo nan shou
I wouldn't have realized how bad I truly felt
怎麼說出口 也不過是分手
zen mo shuo chu kou, ye bu guo shi fen shou
no matter how I phrase it, it'll just end up in a break up
如果对于明天没有要求
ru guo dui yu ming tian mei you yao qiu
if there is no demand for tomorrow
牵牵手就像旅游
qian qian shou jiu xiang lv you
we'll just hold hands like we're traveling
成千上万个门口
cheng qian shang wan ge men kou
through thousand upon thousand of gates
总有一个人要先走
zong you yi ge ren yao xian zou
inevitably, someone has to leave first
怀抱既然不能逗留
huai bao ji ran bu neng dou liu
if we cannot stay together in embrace
何不在离开的时候
he bu zai li kai de shi hou
why not, before parting ways
一边享受一边泪流
yi bian xiang shou yi bian lei liu
savor the moment with joy and tears?
十年之前
shi nian zhi qian
10 years ago
我不认识你 你不属于我
wo bu ren shi ni, ni bu shu yu wo
I didn't know you, you weren't mine
我们还是一样
wo men hai shi yi yang
we were the same
陪在一个陌生人左右
pei zai yi ge moi sheng ren zuo you
we had strangers by our sides
走过渐渐熟悉的街头
zou guo jian jian shou xi de jie tou
as we walked along unfamiliar streets
十年之后
shi nian zhi hou
10 years later
我们是朋友
wo men shi peng you
we're friends
还可以问候
hai ke yi wen hou
we still greet each other
只是那种温柔
zhi shi na zhong wen rou
however, it is that kind of warmth
再也找不到拥抱的理由
zai ye zhao bu dao yong bao de li you
we no longer have a reason to hug each other
情人最后难免沦为朋友
qing ren zui hou nan mian lun wei, peng you
in the end, lovers often inevitably dissolve into friends
怀抱既然不能逗留
huai bao ji ran bu neng dou liu
if we cannot stay together in embrace
何不在离开的时候
he bu zai li kai de shi hou
why not, before parting ways
一边享受一边泪流
yi bian xiang shou yi bian lei liu
savor the moment with joy and tears?

qing ren zui hou nan mian lun wei, peng you
in the end, lovers often inevitably dissolve into friends
直到和你做了多年朋友
zhi dao he ni zuo le duo nian peng yuo
it wasn't until we were friends for many years
才明白我的眼泪
cai ming bai wo de yan lei
that I understood that my tears
不是为你而流
bu shi wei ni er liu
they weren't shed because of you
也为别人而流
ye wei bie ren er liu
