Lyrics and translation 江美琪 - 情書

情書

手上青春还剩多少
思念还有多少煎熬
偶尔惊见用过的梳子
留下了时光的线条
你的世界但愿都好
当我想起你的微笑
无意重读那年的情书
时光悠悠青春渐老
回不去的那段相知相许美好
都在发黄的信纸上闪耀
那时青春诗句记号
莫怪读了心还会跳
你是否也还记得那一段的美好
也许写给你的信
你早已经都丢掉
但也许这样才好 我少你的
你已经从别处都找到
也许这样才最好

Love Letter

How much of my youth remains in my hands,
How much more anguish from longing will there be?
Sometimes, I'm startled to see the comb I used,
Its lines etched by the passage of time.
I wish your world is well,
When I recall your smile,
Unintentionally, I reread the love letter from that year,
Time marches on, and our youth fades away,
The beautiful memories of our acquaintance and promises can't be recovered,
They all shimmer on the yellowed letter paper.
Those youthful poetic annotations from that time,
Don't blame me if my heart still leaps when I read them,
Do you remember those beautiful times too?
Perhaps the letter I wrote to you,
You've long since discarded,
But perhaps that's for the best. What I owe you,
You've already found elsewhere.
Perhaps that's truly the best.
