Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English
nǐ yǒu yī zhāng hǎo mò shēng de liǎn
你有一张好陌生的脸
You have such a strange face
dào jīn tiān cái kàn jiàn
到今天才看见
I only see it clearly today
yǒu diǎn xīn suān zài wǒ men zhī jiān
有点心酸在我们之间
There’s a touch of sadness between us
rú cǐ duǎn zàn de qíng yuán
如此短暂的情缘
Such a short-lived romantic bond
kàn zhe tiān kōng bù ràng lèi liú xià
看着天空不让泪流下
Looking at the sky to hold back tears
bù shuō yī jù mán yuàn
不说一句埋怨
Not saying a word of complaint
zhǐ shì xīn zhōng de gǎn kǎi wàn qiān
只是心中的感慨万千
Only countless emotions surging in my heart
dāng zuò qián shì lái shēng xiāng qiàn
当作前世来生相欠
Treating it as a debt owed between past and next lives
nǐ shuō shì wǒ men xiāng jiàn hèn wǎn
你说 是我们相见恨晚
You say we met too late
wǒ shuō wèi ài nǐ bù gòu yǒng gǎn
我说 为爱你不够勇敢
I say I wasn’t brave enough for love
wǒ bù shē qiú yǒng yuǎn
我不奢求永远
I don’t crave forever
yǒng yuǎn tài yáo yuǎn
永远太遥远
Forever is too far away
què xiàn zài ài de shēn yuān
却陷在爱的深渊
Yet I’m trapped in the abyss of love
nǐ shuō shì wǒ men xiāng jiàn hèn wǎn
你说 是我们相见恨晚
You say we met too late
wǒ shuō wèi ài nǐ bù gòu yǒng gǎn
我说 为爱你不够勇敢
I say I wasn’t brave enough for love
zài ài yǔ bù ài jiān
在爱与不爱间
Between loving and not loving
lái huí qiān wàn biàn
来回千万遍
Going back and forth a thousand times
nǎ pà yǐ shāng hén lěi lěi wǒ yě bù guǎn
哪怕已伤痕累累 我也不管
Even if I’m covered in scars, I don’t care
nǐ yǒu yī zhāng hǎo mò shēng de liǎn
