作詞:黃偉文 作曲:湯令山
麻煩 各位都不望我
麻烦 各位都不望我
→ Please, everyone, don’t look at me
望住 我怎麼敢去唱 情歌
望住 我怎么敢去唱 情歌
→ With eyes on me, how could I dare sing a love song
然而 我想揀今日 來流露我淒楚
然而 我想拣今日 来流露我凄楚
→ Yet today, I choose to reveal this sorrow
聽完的人 請你扮儍
听完的人 请你扮傻
→ Those who listen, please pretend not to know
但唱畢 全場靜 其實 路人 並不傻
但唱毕 全场静 其实 路人 并不傻
→ Yet when the song ends and the hall falls silent, passers-by are not foolish
都猜中我 為你捱盡折磨
都猜中我 为你挨尽折磨
→ All have guessed I endured torment for you
眼淚若嫌多 用背脊唱情歌
眼泪若嫌多 用背脊唱情歌
→ If tears seem too many, sing the love song with my back turned
難道從後腦 可以望穿我 心裏痛什麼
难道从后脑 可以望穿我 心里痛什么
→ Could the back of my head reveal what pain sits in my heart
正面像全裸
正面像全裸
→ Facing forward is like being naked
遮醜的布 就別來戳破
遮丑的布 就别来戳破
→ So don’t tear away the cloth that hides the shame
願這歌 悲到 一轉背 人間都 忘掉我
愿这歌 悲到 一转背 人间都 忘掉我
→ Let this song grow so sorrowful that once I turn away, the world forgets me
原來 我不懂怎樣愛
原来 我不懂怎样爱
→ It turns out I never knew how to love
但是 作的戀歌也算精彩
但是 作的恋歌也算精彩
→ Yet the love songs I wrote were, at least, striking
忘形 到真失戀後 償還十倍悲哀
忘形 到真失恋后 偿还十倍悲哀
→ Lost in it, until real heartbreak repaid tenfold sorrow
終於一個人 站在舞台
终于一个人 站在舞台
→ At last, standing alone on the stage
願這歌 流行著 遺下 二人 沒將來
愿这歌 流行着 遗下 二人 没将来
→ Let this song live on, leaving behind two people with no future
歌者痛了 人們還在喝采
歌者痛了 人们还在喝采
→ The singer aches, while the crowd still applauds
眼淚若嫌多 用背脊唱情歌
眼泪若嫌多 用背脊唱情歌
→ If tears seem too many, sing the love song with my back turned
難道從後腦 可以望穿我 心裏痛什麼
难道从后脑 可以望穿我 心里痛什么
→ Could the back of my head reveal what pain sits in my heart
正面像全裸
正面像全裸
→ Facing forward is like being naked
遮醜的布 就別來戳破
遮丑的布 就别来戳破
→ So don’t tear away the cloth that hides the shame
願這歌 悲到 一轉背 人間都 忘掉我
愿这歌 悲到 一转背 人间都 忘掉我
→ Let this song grow so sorrowful that once I turn away, the world forgets me
尚有 沉重的幾句 非要唱不可
尚有 沉重的几句 非要唱不可
→ There remain a few heavy lines that must be sung
世事沒如果 別再冀盼如果
世事没如果 别再冀盼如果
→ The world has no “if only” — don’t hope for it again
明明 放低的你 經已唱新歌
明明 放低的你 经已唱新歌
→ You, who have clearly let go, are already singing new songs
我尚在如此 不知醜 唱著別離開我
我尚在如此 不知丑 唱着别离开我
→ Yet here I remain, shamelessly singing “don’t leave me”
失去你 唯有等歌迷去 喜歡我
失去你 唯有等歌迷去 喜欢我
→ Having lost you, can only wait for listeners to love me
