Paroles et traduction 林憶蓮 - 面對面

面對面

恍如前生的昨天
模糊愛過的臉
細節不可辨
說不出感覺的感覺

到底是感覺選擇事件
或事件選擇感覺
虛線的連結
預知的離別

劃過悶雷的閃電
心酸眼亮的瞬間
僅有的一切
還不夠了解的了解

也許是過於轟轟烈烈
才太快灰飛湮滅
燻紅了雙眼
看不見的才一一的浮現

我終於敢和自己來面對面
那是我用堅強武裝的膽怯
走錯了房間 退回原點
不見得會和你有關聯

聚和散原來是雙生的兩面
這次不要別人來抱我的肩
自己的房間 在我裡面
一直在尋找的在身邊

往事像隔壁房間
電話響了沒人接
歷歷在眼前
卻碰不著邊 真抱歉

也許還在那邊
情感總是物質不滅
放開了
看不見的才一一的浮現

錯和對原來是雙生的兩面
這次我能擁抱我的不完全
自己的房間 在我裡面
一直在尋找的在身邊

忘不忘 總是兩難
越簡單 越困難 不簡單
多一段 枝枝蔓蔓
卻讓 人成長

我終於敢和自己來面對面
那是我用完美掩飾的欠缺
走錯了房間 退回原點
不見得會和愛有關聯

得和失原來是硬幣的兩面
只是它剛好落在了這一邊
自己的房間 也有晴天
一直被忽略的 在還原

Face to Face

As if yesterday was a previous life
Blurred faces of past loves
Details indistinguishable
An indescribable sensation

Is it feelings that choose events
Or do events choose feelings?
A dotted line connecting us
A foreseen farewell

Lightning strikes, thunder roars
A heart-wrenching moment of clarity
Everything I possess
Still not enough to truly understand

Perhaps it was too intense
That it fizzled out too quickly
Reddening my eyes
Unseen truths begin to emerge

I finally dare to face myself
My vulnerability hidden beneath a facade of strength
Entered the wrong room, returned to the start
Not necessarily related to you

Union and separation are two sides of the same coin
This time, I won't let anyone comfort me
My own room is within me
What I've been searching for is right here

The past is like a neighboring room
The phone rings, but no one answers
Vivid before my eyes
Yet untouchable. I'm sorry.

Perhaps it's still there
For emotions never truly disappear
Letting go
Unseen truths begin to emerge

Right and wrong are two sides of the same coin
This time, I can embrace my imperfections
My own room is within me
What I've been searching for is right here

To forget or not, always a dilemma
The simpler it seems, the harder it is
The extra complexities
Bring about personal growth

I finally dare to face myself
My flaws hidden beneath a facade of perfection
Entered the wrong room, returned to the start
Not necessarily related to love

Gain and loss are two sides of the coin of life
It just so happens to have landed on this side
My own room has its sunny days
What was once ignored is now being restored
