Album: 飛花 (Falling Flowers)

零晨同靜望 奇幻冰雕亮光
Midnight, watching together, the mysterious icy light
你我抱擁於陌生的地方
You and I embrace, in a strange new place
同遊零度下純白色的札幌
Travelling together, exploring the frozen white grounds of Sapporo
你說要永遠擁有這夜風光
You say that you want to keep this night's scenery forever

綿綿頭上飛花 散聚了無牽掛
Snowflakes falling on heads, after parting there will be no care
誰能求漫天雪地裡這溫暖長留下
No one can pray the warmth of the snowy romance can stay forever
綿綿頭上飛花 能遇上壯麗落霞
Snowflakes falling on heads, to have chanced to be under these falling clouds
如像你跟我暫借的火花
It's like you and me, the sparks can only be borrowed momentarily

為何流下淚 沉在一碗熱湯
Why do you let tears fall, into this bowl of soup
你說你擔心若我不在旁
You say you are worried if I am not by your side
為何還在願望黎明後捉緊曙光
Why do you still hope, that after daybreak you can hold onto the dawn
你我有過這個故事便至死未忘
You and I have already had this story that won't be forgotten even in death..

綿綿頭上飛花 散聚了無牽掛
Snowflakes falling on heads, after parting there will be no care
誰能求漫天雪地裡這溫暖長留下
No one can pray the warmth of the snowy romance will stay forever
綿綿頭上飛花 能遇上一次落霞
Snowflakes falling on heads, to have met just once under these falling clouds
如像你跟我暫借的火花
It's like you and me, the sparks can only be borrowed momentarily

綿綿頭上飛花 散聚了無牽掛
Snowflakes falling on heads, after parting there should be no care
誰能求漫天雪地裡這足印不退下
Who could pray that the footprints in the snow never fade
綿綿頭上飛花 能遇上一次落霞
Snowflakes falling on heads, to have met just once these falling clouds..
如像你跟我暫借的火花
It's like us, the sparks could only be borrowed momentarily...
懷念那一剎耀眼的火花
Just reminisce, the blinding sparks of that moment.
