原来的我

给我一个空间　
没有人走过　
感觉到自己被冷落
给我一段时间　
没有人曾经爱过　
再一次体会寂寞

曾经爱过却要分手　
为何相爱不能相守　
到底为什么
早知如此何必开始　
欢笑以后代价就是冷漠

既然说过深深爱我　
为何又要离我远走
海誓山盟抛在脑后
早知如此何必开始　
我还是原来的我

给我一个空间　
没有人走过　
感觉那心灵的伤口
给我一段时间　
勇敢地面对寂寞　
再一次开始生活　

The Person I Was

Give me an empty space
No one has passed through
To feel how I’m left in the cold
Give me a stretch of time
That’s never seen love before
To try loneliness once again

We were in love, when we break up
Why love but not cherish each other? Oh Tell me why
Why begin just to end like this?
Happy laughter gone, our hearts left empty

Having said you truly love me
Why would you also walk away
All your promises just forgotten
Why begin just to end like this?
I’m still the person I was

Give me an empty space
No one has passed through
To feel the wound left in my soul
Give me a stretch of time
To bravely face solitude
And begin living once again

Mostly literal, but some lyrics were adjusted for singability.

The person I was

Give me some space No-one passes I feel isolated
Give me some time No-one has loved I experience loneliness again

We used to be in love and yet we break up
Why can’t love accompany us
Why?
If we knew it would end like this, why start?
Our laughter will be replaced by apathy

If you said you loved me deeply Then why did you leave me Our promises abandoned
If we knew it would end like this, why start?
I’m still the person I was

Give me some space No-one passes I feel the scar on my soul
Give me some time To face loneliness with courage To start living again

This isn’t a word for word translation as there are many literary effects in Chinese, but I hope that you get the general gist of it:)
