One person sits quietly in a daze, while two people have different helplessness
好好的一份爱啊怎么会慢慢变坏
hǎo hǎo de yī fèn ài a zěn me huì màn màn biàn huài
How did a good love slowly turn bad?
冷冷的冰雨在脸上胡乱的拍
lěng lěng de bīng yǔ zài liǎn shàng hú luàn de pāi
The cold icy rain randomly hits my face
暖暖的眼泪跟寒雨混成一块
nuǎn nuǎn de yǎn lèi gēn hán yǔ hùn chéng yī kuài
Warm tears mix with the cold rain
眼前的色彩忽然被掩盖
yǎn qián de sè cǎi hū rán bèi yǎn gài
The colors before my eyes suddenly get covered
妳的影子无情在身边徘徊
nǐ de yǐng zi wú qíng zài shēn biān pái huái
Your shadow mercilessly lingers around me
妳就像一个刽子手把我出卖
nǐ jiù xiàng yī gè guì zi shǒu bǎ wǒ chū mài
You are like an executioner, betraying me
我的心仿佛被剌刀狠狠地宰
wǒ de xīn fǎng fú bèi là dāo hěn hěn de zǎi
My heart feels like it is being brutally slashed by a knife
悬崖上的爱 谁会愿意接受最痛的意外
xuán yá shàng de ài shéi huì yuàn yì jiē shòu zuì tòng de yì wài
Who would be willing to accept the most painful accident of a love on the edge?

悬崖上的爱 谁会敢去采 还是愿意接受最痛的意外 最爱的女孩
xuán yá shàng de ài shéi huì gǎn qù cǎi hái shì yuàn yì jiē shòu zuì tòng de yì wài zuì ài de nǚ hái
Who would dare to pluck a love on the edge or be willing to accept the most painful accident, my dearest girl?
