Language: Mandarin
Released: 2021
Lyrics: Duan Si Si
Composition: Tan Xuan
谁向往着自由和天空
Shéi xiàng wǎng zhe zì yóu hé tiān kōng
Who yearns for freedom and the sky
却把心事留给树洞
Què bǎ xīn shì liú gěi shù dòng
Yet leaves their worries in a tree hole
做一个无人知晓的梦
Zuò yī gè wú rén zhī xiǎo de mèng
Dreaming of a dream that no one knows about
我的世界你来了多久
Wǒ de shì jiè nǐ lái le duō jiǔ
How long have you been in my world
一双手有莫名的空
Yī shuāng shǒu yǒu mò míng de kōng
My two hands feel indescribably empty
你转身 竟能带走一夏天的风
Nǐ zhuǎn shēn jìng néng dài zǒu yī xià tiān de fēng
When you turn around, you actually take away the summer wind
眼睛会红
Yǎn jing huì hóng
My eyes will turn red
有多少不可言说隐秘的虚妄
Yǒu duō shao bù kě yán shuō yǐn mì de xū wàng
How many unspeakable words are hidden and fabricated
为你在心底翻涌无声的巨浪
Wéi nǐ zài xīn dǐ fān yǒng wú shēng de jù làng
Causing the silent waves in your heart to keep rolling over
明明很想要握紧你手掌
Míng míng hěn xiǎng yào wò jǐn nǐ shǒu zhǎng
It’s obvious that I really want to hold your hand tightly
还一副骄傲的模样
Hái yī fù jiāo ào de mó yàng
Yet I still put on a proud front
我们的青春是否终究会散场
Wǒ men de qīng chūn shì fǒu zhōng jiū huì sàn chǎng
Will our youth come to an end when all is said and done
为什么快乐也同时伴随空荡
Wèi shén me kuài lè yě tóng shí bàn suí kōng dàng
Why is happiness also accompanied by emptiness at the same time
有一句话我还来不及对你讲
Yǒu yī jù huà wǒ hái lái bu jí duì nǐ jiǎng
There’s something that I haven’t been able to tell you
一起的愿望
Yī qǐ de yuàn wàng
My wish for us to be together
那道不肯落幕的夕阳
Nà dào bù kěn luò mù de xī yáng
The sun that is unwilling to set
像不像是地老天荒
Xiàng bù xiàng shì dì lǎo tiān huāng
Isn’t it like the end of time
小幸福和大冒险一样
Xiǎo xìng fú hé dà mào xiǎn yī yàng
Small blessings and big risks are the same
原来越过反锁的心墙
Yuán lái yuè guò fǎn suǒ de xīn qiáng
Only after crossing over the wall around my heart
我才发现我的流浪
Wǒ cái fā xiàn wǒ de liú làng
Did I realize that in my wandering
有个笑 竟能媲美所有的远方
Yǒu gè xiào jìng néng pì měi suǒ yǒu de yuǎn fāng
There’s a smile that can actually rival distant places
念念不忘
Niàn niàn bù wàng
In how unforgettable it is
有多少不可言说隐秘的虚妄
Yǒu duō shao bù kě yán shuō yǐn mì de xū wàng
How many unspeakable words are hidden and fabricated
为你在心底翻涌无声的巨浪
Wéi nǐ zài xīn dǐ fān yǒng wú shēng de jù làng
Causing the silent waves in your heart to keep rolling over
明明很想要握紧你手掌
Míng míng hěn xiǎng yào wò jǐn nǐ shǒu zhǎng
It’s obvious that I really want to hold your hand tightly
还一副骄傲的模样
Hái yī fù jiāo ào de mó yàng
Yet I still put on a proud front
我们的青春是否终究会散场

我喜欢你想让全世界都知道
Wǒ xǐ huan nǐ xiǎng ràng quán shì jiè dōu zhī dào
I want the whole world to know that I like you
有一片浩瀚的星空只为你闪耀
Yǒu yī piàn hào hàn de xīng kōng zhǐ wéi nǐ shǎn yào
There’s a boundless sky full of stars that only shine for you
你从此后拥有我专属的怀抱
Nǐ cóng cǐ hòu yōng yǒu wǒ zhuān shǔ de huái bào
From now on, my embraces are exclusively for you
不再是孤岛
Bù zài shì gū dǎo
You’re no longer an isolated island
