And I love you so / The people ask me how / How I've lived till now / I tell them "I don't know"
我如此爱你。当人们问我，如何苟活至今，我回答说，我不知道。
I guess they understand / How lonely life has been / But life began again / The day you took my hand
我猜他们也明了，生命可以有多无聊；但是当你牵起我的手，我又活了一次。
And yes I know how lonely life can be / The shadows follow me / And the night won't set me free / But I don't let the evening bring me down.
而我也知道，生命可以有多孤独；那感觉如影随形，且墨如黑夜从不轻饶；但是，我并没有让自己被黑夜打倒。
Now that you're around me.
现在，终于等到，你将我环绕。
And you love me too / Your thoughts are just for me / You set my spirit free / I'm happy that you do.
而你也爱我。你的想法都为我存在，你释放了我的灵魂，我为你所做的一切而感到喜悦。
The book of life is brief / Once the page is read / All but love is dead / This is my belif.
生命之书，简短仓促；当那些书页翻过，除了爱，别的都会逝去。
And yes I know how loveless life can be / The shadows follow me / And the night won't set me free / But I don't let the evening bring me down. 而我也知道，生命可以有多孤独；那感觉如影随形，且墨如黑夜从不轻饶；但是，我并没有让自己被黑夜打倒。
Now that you're around me.
现在，终于等到，你将我环绕。
