By the cloudy seaside the wind brushes my ear
阴天的海边风轻轻擦过耳畔
The waves pull back slowly like words left unclear
浪退得很慢像一句没说清的话
The city lies distant under blue-grey skies
城市在远处铺在灰蓝色的天底下
You walk beside me and dusk begins to lighten
你走在我身边黄昏忽然变浅了
I know some kinds of love don't need a name too soon
我知道有些爱不必那么早被命名
Like tides that come and go without leaving a tune
像潮水来了又走没留下一段旋律
But when two hearts draw closer everything feels light
可两颗心靠近的时候一切都变轻了
Even the smallest breeze seems to pass through my heart
连最小的一阵风都像穿过了心底
I still get secretly afraid
我还是会偷偷地害怕
Afraid I'm falling too soon afraid of getting too close
怕喜欢得太早怕靠得太近
But when you smile at me
可你朝我笑的时候
I find the courage to soften just a little more
我又愿意再放软一点点
It's not sadness just a sudden kind of quiet
不是难过只是忽然的一阵安静
Like a cloudy sea hiding part of its light
像阴天的海藏起了一点光
There is brightness in my heart yet I fear the wind may be
我心里有光却怕风太轻
So gentle it could scatter our reflection before it stays
轻到会把我们刚靠近的倒影吹散
It's not doubt just how much I care
不是怀疑只是太在意
So I breathe carefully beside this happiness we share
才会在我们的幸福旁边小心地呼吸
Two hearts slowly moving near
两颗心慢慢靠近
Maybe love comes with its own tides gentle and unclear
也许爱本来就带着潮汐温柔又看不分明
That hurried evening we missed that bitter melon stew
那个赶时间的傍晚我们错过了那锅苦瓜
You said it would turn tender like a song that waits for you
你说它会煮得很绵像一首在等你的歌
Light fell on your hair and I smiled"Maybe next time"
灯光落在你的发上我笑着说"下次吧"
Some tenderness arrives too late yet still leaves something behind
有些温柔来得太迟却也会留下一点什么
Back home two rackets leaned quietly against the wall
回到家里两支球拍静静靠在墙边
The way they rested side by side seemed to answer it all
它们贴着的样子仿佛已经替我们回答了一切
You handed me a strawberry mint candy
你递给我一颗草莓薄荷糖
Sweet with a little chill like words I never finished saying
甜里带一点凉像我没说完的话
At night I still think it over again
夜里我还是会反复地想
Was something I said today too soft too thin
今天有没有哪句话说得太轻、太薄
But when you hold my hand
可你牵起我的手时
My heart gently lands back where it began
我的心又轻轻地落回原处
It's not sadness just a sudden kind of quiet
不是难过只是忽然的一阵安静
Like a cloudy sea hiding part of its light
像阴天的海藏起了一点光
There is brightness in my heart yet I fear the wind may be
我心里有光却怕风太轻
So gentle it could scatter our reflection before it stays
轻到会把我们刚靠近的倒影吹散
It's not doubt just how much I care
不是怀疑只是太在意
So I breathe carefully beside this happiness we share
才会在我们的幸福旁边小心地呼吸
Two hearts slowly moving near
两颗心慢慢靠近
Maybe love comes with its own tides gentle and unclear
也许爱本来就带着潮汐温柔又看不分明
Maybe love at the beginning is like bitter melon not softened yet
也许刚开始的爱就像还没煮软的苦瓜
You wait a little slow it down before the sweetness comes back
你要等一等慢一点回甘才会来
I don't have many words to say
我没有太多话想说
I only want to remember them softly
只想轻轻地把它们记住
That pot we never tasted —I'm still saving it for you
Those two leaning rackets —I still haven't pulled them apart
That strawberry mint candy —it's still here in my heart
Some words don't need to be finished now
有些话不必现在说完
They will grow clearer somewhere in the quiet
它们会在某个安静的角落慢慢变清晰
It's not sadness only a deeper kind of quiet
不是难过只是更深的一种安静
Like a cloudy sea learning to hold its own reflection tight
像阴天的海学会了抱住自己的倒影
Though I am still a little afraid I still believe
虽然我还是会有点害怕可我仍然相信
Love will grow clearer as we slowly learn to be near
爱会在我们慢慢靠近的过程里一点点清晰起来
It's not doubt just how much I care
不是怀疑只是太在意
So I keep every moment gently folded there
所以我把每一个瞬间都轻轻地收起来
Two hearts slowly moving near
两颗心慢慢靠近
No need to wake the world it can still be clear
不必惊动这个世界它也可以很清楚
By the cloudy seaside the wind has not yet stilled
阴天的海边风还没有停
Behind us the city glows with tender lights
我们身后城市亮着温柔的灯
Some love does not need to be explained
有些爱不需要解释
It becomes certain slowly somewhere inside
它会在心里某个地方慢慢被确定
