[ spring, summer, autumn and winter ]
春天的风是刚晾干的床单的浅蓝色
chūn tiān de fēng shì gāng liàng gān de chuáng dān de qiǎn lán sè Spring’s wind is light blue, freshly aired bed sheets
是张开双手去获得而不只是眼看着
shì zhāng kāi shuāng shǒu qù huò dé ér bù zhī shì yǎn kàn zhuó Open arms go out to get what they want, not just waiting for it to come
我想起小时候第一辆自行车
wǒ xiǎng qǐ xiǎo shí hòu dì yī liàng zì xíng chē I remember my first bike when I was younger
穿越马路逆着风跑哼jay的歌
chuān yuè mǎ lù nì zhe fēng pǎo hēng jay de gē Crossing the main road, against the wind, humming Jay’s song
当阳光洒满我裸露的手臂
dāng yáng guāng sǎ mǎn wǒ luǒ lù de shǒu bì When the sunlight brushed my naked arms
再也不是那稚气未脱天真的口气
zài yě bù shì nà zhì qì wèi tuō tiān zhēn de kǒu qì It wasn’t with childlike innocence when
我的手被另一只手握紧 停在此刻
wǒ de shǒu bèi lìng yī zhī shǒu wò jǐn tíng zài cǐ kè time stopped, my hand grabbed tightly by another
我才发现夏天的风是梦幻般的紫色
wǒ cái fā xiàn xià tiān de fēng shì mèng huàn bān de zǐ sè Now I realise summer’s wind is a dreamy purple
[ wait wait wait ]
我想我应该抬起头走
wǒ xiǎng wǒ yīng gāi tái qǐ tóu zǒu I think I should walk with my head held high
不给未完的事再找理由
bù gěi wèi wán de shì zài zhǎo lǐ yóu Don’t make excuses for the things you haven’t finished
等风来根本不是我风格
děng fēng lái gēn běn bù shì wǒ fēng gé Waiting for the the wind to come isn’t one bit my style
迎风跑才发现有空回首
yíng fēng pǎo cái fā xiàn yǒu kōng huí shǒu Running towards the wind, I realise I have time to look back
我看到了风的颜色

多想 一辈子没有挂念 没有寄托
duō xiǎng yī bèi zǐ méi yǒu guà niàn méi yǒu jì tuō Wish there was nothing to miss in my life, nothing to wish for
不想 到最后除了眼泪就是悔过
bù xiǎng dào zuì hòu chú le yǎn lèi jiù shì huǐ guò I didn’t expect that in the end there would only be tears and regret
我想 放下一切 只活的光明磊落
wǒ xiǎng fàng xià yī qiē zhī huó de guāng míng lěi luò I want to put everything to rest, just live honestly
不讲道理 不讲信用的人都给我
bù jiǎng dào lǐ bù jiǎng xìn yòng de rén doū gěi wǒ People who are unreasonable or untrustworthy
走远点
zǒu yuǎn diǎn Can keep their distance
走远点
zǒu yuǎn diǎn Can keep their distance
秋天的风是什么颜色
qiū tiān de fēng shì shén me yán sè What colour is autumn’s wind?
你说是枫叶那种凄婉的橙红色
nǐ shuō shì fēng yè nà zhǒng qī wǎn de chéng hóng sè You say it’s the kind of orange of a melancholy maple leaf
我假装听不太 清楚
wǒ jiǎ zhuāng tīng bù tài qīng chǔ I pretend I don’t quite hear you
话里有几重 因素
huà lǐ yǒu jī zhòng yīn sù What’s your real point?
你说算了别闹了之后
nǐ shuō suàn le bié nào le zhī hòu After you say “Forget about it, stop it”
我只能跟风倾吐
wǒ zhī néng gēn fēng qīng tǔ I can only share my thoughts with the wind
雪 一片 一片 一片一片的飘落
xuě yī piàn yī piàn yī piàn yī piàn de piāo luò Snow falls gently piece by piece by piece
白色的风拍着我的脸 它在笑我
bái sè de fēng pāi zhe wǒ de liǎn tā zài xiào wǒ White wind slaps my face, it’s laughing at me
从什么都没有
cóng shen me doū méi yǒu From something, nothing
再到什么都没有
zài dào shen me doū méi yǒu Again something, then nothing
曾经涂抹的那些彩色
zēng jīng tú mǒ de nà xiē cǎi sè The colours which were painted before
最终也会变成白色
zuì zhōng yě huì biàn chéng bái sè Will eventually become white
又是我会错了意
yòu shì wǒ huì cuò le yì I’ll misunderstand again
不小心又说了放弃
bù xiǎo xīn yòu shuō le fàng qì Without thinking, said I gave up again
每次平稳落了地
měi cì píng wěn luò le dì Every time when things are smooth, I fall down
我总是急于站起
wǒ zǒng shì jí yú zhàn qǐ Always rush to stand up
用再多形容词表达
yòng zài duō xíng róng cí biǎo dá No matter how many adjectives you use to express
真诚能有多狡黠
zhēn chéng néng yǒu duō jiǎo xiá How much cunning is there in truth?
疼的重量能秒杀
téng de zhòng liáng néng miǎo shā The weight of hurt quickly topples
支撑快乐的三脚架
zhī chēng kuài lè de sān jiǎo jià the tripod holding up happiness
我看到了风的颜色
wǒ kàn dào le fēng de yán sè I saw the colour of wind
却完全不够表达我走过的一点一刻
què wán quán bù gòu biǎo dá wǒ zǒu guò de yī diǎn yī kè But not nearly enough to express each moment
放下的就放下吧
fàng xià de jiù fàng xià bā What’s put down is put down
当下是框架吧
dāng xià shì kuàng jià bā Now their’s exposed framework
总有人想要跳进
