藉口
王菲 Lyrics

常请晚星请背影 不用替我太挂心
I often ask for the company of the evening star and my shadow, but you don't need to worry too much about me.

常劝心境应恬静 别无事也带泪痕
I often advise myself to keep a calm state of mind, but even without any troubles, tears still well up in my eyes.

如近来共你相拥之时 常常略察觉你稍带冷感
When we hold each other closely these days, I often notice that you are a bit cold towards me.

全因你身边许多要事 暂时没法兴奋
This is because you have many things on your mind that keep you from feeling excited at the moment.

常请眼睛不要醒 不用太过看得真
I often ask my eyes not to be too perceptive and see things too clearly.

常劝哭声稍冷静 事情未算有裂痕
I often try to calm my crying voice, because there's no real damage done between us (yet).

如日前为我恭祝生辰 是我冷的背影
When you wished me happy birthday not long ago, my response was chilly (a cold shoulder).

全因你当天刚巧有事 辨完便送我火吻
This was because you were busy that day, and after a short chat, you left me with a kiss and went off to attend to your affairs.

常自我哄骗 也替你辛苦找借口
I often deceive myself and make excuses for you even when it's hard on me.

如全没有介意 却暗孤单饮心里苦酒
Even though I say I don't mind, I still drink alone and nurse my heartaches.

明知将分手 但若人未开口 我都会一再当我通通都拥有
I know we will break up eventually, but if you don't end things, I will continue to pretend that we still have each other.

仍然诈不知 双眼内何事会湿透
Even though I'm dishonest with myself, I still can't avoid feeling emotional and shedding tears.

如日前望见她于街头 共你靠得太紧
When we saw her on the street not long ago, you held onto me too tightly.

全因那一天风急雨暴 任谁亦会走近
This was because it was a stormy day, and anyone would have drawn close to another for comfort.

尚当我拥有
I still hold onto the hope that I have you.
