說了再見 [Shuō le zài jiàn] [Say Goodbye] [English translation]

[Verse]

The sky turned chilly, the rain fell and you left.

It's clear now, I've lost the one I love.

Fallen leaves float gently, asleep on the lake.

I want to let it go, but I can't. My tears float.

Look here, look here but you don't see.

I try to pretend that the past is unimportant,

but then I realise I can't.

[Chorus 1]

Only after saying goodbye did I realise, we won't see each other again.

And I can't just lose your smile this way.

The lipstick has been on the table, but we both can't find it.*

And what would you think, if our roles were reversed?

[Chorus 2]

Only after saying goodbye did I realise, we won't see each other again.

Can we just stay like this, enduring the pain and holding back the tears?

You agreed to grow old with me. Where do I find forever now?

Another hug would be good, be it a minute or a second.

[Verse]

[Chorus 1]

Your smile and your goodness, they keep swirling in my head.

My hand can't forget the temperature of your hands.

The lipstick has been on the table, but we both can't find it.*

And what would you think, if our roles were reversed?

[Chorus 2]
