Straight Up
A-Mei Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

那是个月亮就是个月亮
并不是地上霜
那地上花瓣看完了就完
没必要再联想
甚么秋水怎么望穿　
甚么灯火怎么阑珊
甚么风景就怎么看
何必要拐弯

打开门就见山我见山就是山　
本来就很简单不找自己麻烦
痛就痛伤就伤是谁说肝肠会寸断混帐　
点了灯就会亮关了灯就会暗　
谁活得不耐烦哪里来的感慨　
聚就聚散就散谁曾说独自莫凭栏笨蛋
那是把雨伞就是把雨伞
不是感情遗产
那烟消云散是天气现象
不上浪漫的当
甚么秋水怎么望穿　
甚么灯火怎么阑珊
甚么风景就怎么看
何必要拐弯
打开门就见山我见山就是山　
本来就很简单不找自己麻烦
痛就痛伤就伤是谁说肝肠会寸断混帐　
点了灯就会亮关了灯就会暗　
谁活得不耐烦哪里来的感慨　
聚就聚散就散谁曾说独自莫凭栏笨蛋
打开门就见山我见山就是山　
本来就很简单不找自己麻烦
痛就痛伤就伤是谁说肝肠会寸断混帐　
点了灯就会亮关了灯就会暗　

谁活得不耐烦哪里来的感慨　
聚就聚散就散谁曾说独自莫凭栏笨蛋
