劉力揚-禮物
Liu li yang- Gift
终於可以在今天划上句点
zhong yu ke yi zai jing tian hua shang ju tian
Finally there is an end to things today.
一整夜 翻阅过去画面
yi zheng ye fan yue guo qu de hua mian
Spending the whole night, reminiscing
快想不起我们为何会诀别
kuai xiang bu xi wo men wei he hua jue bie
Almost forgetting why we parted
只看到那双你送的鞋
zhi kan dao na shuang ni song wo de xie
Only looking at the shoes you gave me
走一步又一步 我才发现绕了个圈
zhou yi bu you yi bu wo cai fa xian rao le ge quan
Taking step, and another. Then, I realised that I’ve walked a circle
走了好几年 又回到原点
zhou le hao ji nian yu hui dao yuan dian
Being together for some years and we return to square one.
你送的礼物 会不会太特别
ni song de li wu hui bu hui tai te bie
The present that you sent, isn’t it too special?
毫不避讳 那不安的传言
hao bu bi hui na bu an de chuan yan
Totally disregarding any taboo of the unsettling rumour
但渐行渐远 习惯到没感觉
dan jian xing jian yuan xi guan dao mei gan jue
Yet gradually we drift apart, become so familiar with each other that we lose our feelings
难道你早想要我走远
nan dao ni zao xiang wo zou yuan
Perhaps, you’ve long wanted me to leave
你送的礼物 在此刻好体贴
ni song de li wu zai ci ke hao ti tie
The present that you sent. At this moment, it’s especially thoughtfully.
陪我回忆 把过往走一遍
pei wo hua yi ba guo wang zou yi bian
Accompanying me while I remember, going through my past memories
穿了这些年 难免会有污点
chuan le zhe xie nian nan mian hui you wu dian
Wearing it all these years, some stains are unavoidable
就像每段爱 总会有终点
jiu xiang mei duan ai zhong hui you zhong dian
Like every love story, would always have an ending.
世上最残酷的 恐怕是时间 困住人 一切却还向前
shi shang zhui can ku de kong bu de shi jian kun zhu ren yi qie que hai xiang qian
The cruelest horror on earth is time trapping one while everything else moves forwards
乾涸的眼再挤不出一点咸 爱到如此可悲的境界
gan he de yan zai ji bu chu yi dian xian ai dao ru ci he bei de jing jie
Eyes that are so dry that a single tear won’t drop (Dry eyes that won’t even squeeze a drop of saltiness)
Loving till such a pathetic state
走一步又一步 却跟不上你的脚步
zhou yi bu you yi bu que gen bu shang ni de jiao bu
Taking a step, then another. Yet I can’t catch up with your footsteps
你满意了 为什麼我却只想要哭
ni man yi le wei shen me wo que zhi xiang yao ku
You are satisfied. Why do I feel like crying instead?
你说做自己吧 我们都做回自己 哦~
ni shou zuo zhi zi ba wo men dou zuo hui zhi zi wo
You told me to be myself. Both of us to return to who we were
不要再为爱受委屈
bu yao zai wai ai shou wei qu
Not to feel any grievance because of love again.
你送的礼物 原来是一场劫
ni song de li wu yuan lai shi yi chang jie
The present that you sent, was actually a misfortune
终於分别 夙命一样准确
zhong yu fen bie su ming yi yang zhun que
Finally parted, as accurate as our fated destiny
可笑到想要 你赔给我时间
ke xiao dao xiang yao ni pei gei wo shi jian
Such a joke to the point I wanted you return me time
爱情有时廉价得可怜
ai qing you shi lian jia de ke lian
Love is sometimes pitiably cheap
光著脚我一路奔跑 鲜血泪水一路狂飙
guang zhe jiao wo yi lu ben pao xian xue lei shui yi lu kuang biao
I ran back home barefooted, fresh blood and tears pouring all the way
收起我的骄傲 承认曾经备受煎熬
shou qi wo de jiao ao cheng ren ceng jing bei shou jian ao
Keeping my pride, admiting that I was once prepared to be hurt
鞋上那记号 只有你能明了
xie shang de ji hao zhi you ni neng ming liao
The mark on the shoes, you’re the only one that fully understands
过了这一夜 我就全忘掉
guo le zhe yi ye wo jiu wang diao
After tonight, I would forget everything.
Addition: The context of the song hinges on the superstition that if you give shoes to someone, the person will leave you.
