林峯 - 所謂理想

曾經趕不上　至立心趕上
cang ging gon bat soeng zi lap sam gon soeng
previously could not catch up then intentionally decide to catch up
迷失中走過　才認清方向
mai sat zung zau gwo coi jing cing fong hoeng
while being lost passing by only then recognize direction
從舊時天真　漸變成一臉倔強
cung gau si tin zan zim bin sing jat lim gwat goeng
from formerly being naïve gradually become stubborn
誰又來聽心的傷
seoi jau loi ting sam dik soeng
who also come to listen to heart's wound

如果真的愛　其實我善良
jyu gwo zan dik oi kei sat ngo sin loeng
if really love actually I am kind-hearted
如果真的痛　流淚也平常
jyu gwo zan dik tung lau leoi jaa ping soeng
if really hurt shedding tears is also normal
隨遇而安好　還要贏一次硬仗
ceoi jyu ji on hou waan jiu jeng jat ci ngaang zoeng
follow opportunity and safe and sound still want to win a hard battle once
誰又來用心欣賞
seoi jau loi jung sam jan soeng
who also come to intentionally admire

*難道　開不開心都同樣
naan dou hoi bat hoi sam dou tung joeng
could it be that happy or not is also the same
才稱得上是修養
coi cing dak soeng si sau joeng
only then can praise as self-cultivation
從一開始不反抗　一生不可反抗
cung jat hoi ci bat faan kong jat sang bat ho faan kong
from the start do not resist a whole life cannot resist
怎麼可甘心這樣
zam mo ho gam sam ze joeng
how can I willingly be this way

回望　彼此扭曲的模樣
wui mong bei ci nau kuk dik mou joeng
looking back each other distorting the standard form
遺失的拼命追上
wai sat dik ping meng zeoi soeng
lose carelessly risk life to catch up
還想不想犧牲我　想不想犧牲愛
waan soeng bat soeng hei sang ngo soeng bat soeng hei sang oi
still want or not to sacrifice me want or not to sacrifice love
堅守這一些所謂　理想*
gin sau ze jat se so wai lei soeng
firmly defend these so-called ideals

成功這麼近　才越戰越強
sing gung ze mo gan coi jyut zin jyut koeng
success so close only then more battles even stronger
回憶這麼遠　忘掉也平常
wui jik ze mo jyun mong diu jaa ping soeng
memories so far forgetting is also normal
期望無止境　直到良知也奉上
kei mong mou zi ging zik dou loeng zi jaa fung soeng
hope has no end until conscience also offers
誰在乎滿身的傷
seoi zoi fu mun san dik soeng
who cares about the wounds covered all over the body

*難道　開不開心都同樣
才稱得上是修養
從一開始不反抗　一生不可反抗
怎麼可甘心這樣

回望　彼此扭曲的模樣
遺失的拼命追上
還想不想犧牲我　想不想犧牲愛
堅守這一些所謂　理想*
