Lyrics and translation 李克勤 - 北京北角




北京北角
Beijing north angle
北京北角 真心相爱 好想见面
Beijing North Corner, true love, I want to see you so much
看看地图 隔了万里
Look at the map, separated by thousands of miles
若靠这个距离延展彼此挂念
If relying on this distance to extend our thoughts for each other
就嫌神交都过分远
Even communicating spiritually is too far
北京北角 金紫荆对开许过愿
Beijing north corner, where Bauhinia is open and making wishes
以爱热熔 那界限线
Melt that boundary line with the heat of love
就怕最尾发现 南北竟不过电
I'm just afraid that in the end, I will find that the north and the south will not connect
二人同居 先变大战
Two people living together will become a war
北京北角 应该了断
Beijing north corner, it should be cut off
殊途怎可 太亲善
How can we be so close when our paths are so different?
很多讲法 还没有完
There are many stories yet to be finished
由围观者拨着线
By the onlookers pulling the strings
北京北角 心慌意乱
Beijing north corner, my heart is in a mess
无疑分开爽快点
There is no doubt that breaking up is the best way
想深一遍 还是有缘
But thinking deeply, we are still destined
如何舍得 断就断
How can I bear to break up?
如何扯开 百丈远
How can I pull away and be a hundred feet away?
北京北角 走出死角 刚刚发现
Beijing north corner, break out of the deadlock, I just found out
这两座城 看似甚远
These two cities seem to be very far away
但你再退两步宏观画面乍现
But if you take two steps back, the grand landscape will appear
地球仪中 不算极远
They are not too far in the globe
不经不觉 不可割断
Imperceptibly, inseparable
然而怎么了心愿
But what happened to my wish?
想返北角 如没有船
I want to go back to North Corner, but there is no boat
桥梁都可 继续建
Even bridges can continue to be built
北欧很远 北非太乱
Northern Europe is too far and North Africa is too messy
原来北京 亲切点
Beijing seems to be more intimate
北京北角 还是有缘
Beijing north corner, we are still destined
如何舍得 断就断
How can I bear to break up?
北京北角 不可割断
Beijing north corner, inseparable
为何相生 却急着去煎
Why were we born together, but we are eager to fry
北京北角 是一心两面
Beijing north corner, where you and I have different thoughts
并无所想 那样远
I don't think it's that far
何来真火 隔夜怨
Where does the real fire and overnight resentment come from?
怡情小吵 也就算
It's okay to have a little quarrel for fun
