距離這個概念

距離這個概念
1

隨著時間變換著花樣
從離開的那天起
腳下的路就越走越長
中間有不少
孤獨難熬的時光
時至今日
你我之間的距離還在加長

君住江頭我住尾的日子不再複返
隻有當地球自轉勻速之後，我們
才能看清橫亙在你我之間的海有多寬
中間有幾多山脈相隔無盡的大陸綿延

2

心一旦熟知了距離就會慢慢縮短
那熾熱的目光日裏夜裏不停探看
用心在路邊種滿五彩繽紛的花朵
夢幻之燈高懸於每個樹梢和河灣

3

熱戀的人身旁人來人往也視而不見
擦肩而過一瞬間就會遠隔千山
那個常來夢裏訴說的人卻遠在天邊
這世上最短的距離在兩個戀人心間

4

人心脆弱，所以距離這個概念
常令思念之人淚流成河望眼欲穿
甜美的感覺很容易落入冰海
永不分離是說了好多輩子的誓言

Distance as a Concept

1. 

Actually evolves with time

The journey has taken longer and longer

since the day of departure

with plenty of days

of loneliness and hardship in between

Today the distance between us

still increases

 

One river can no longer connect us

Only when the Earth rotates at a steady pace

We can count how much an ocean, and how many

continents and mountain ranges are there

separating us.

 

2.

The distance known by the heart keeps on shrinking

as a loving eye casts a smile on the path day and night

Every mile is decorated with millions of flowers

sweet dreams hang down from every tree and each river bend

 

3.

Devoted lovers pay no attention to those nearby

This moment rubbing shoulders next gone by many miles

Only the one far away frequents dreams every night

the shortest distance lies between two hearts connected by love

 

4.

Still, human heart is most fragile, distance as a concept

suddenly renders one in great despair and a river of tears

Sweet feeling can easily freeze into an ocean of ice

For generations, we we vow not to part ever again
