可惜不是你 (sadly, It's Not You) Lyrics - Fish Leong

Lyrics (Original Chinese, Pinyin Romanization, and English Translation): 

这一刻突然觉得好熟悉 

zhè yí kè tū rán jué de hǎo shú xi 

This very moment suddenly feels so familiar 

像昨天今天同时在放映 

xiàng zuó tiān jīn tiān tóng shí zài fàng yìng 

as if yesterday and today were simultaneously screened 

我这一句语气原来好像你 

wǒ zhè yí jù yǔ qì yuán lài hǎo xiàng nǐ 

The tone of my sentence sounds so much like yours 

不就是我们爱过的证据 

bú jiù shì wǒ men ài guò de zhèng jù 

And isn't that the evidence of our love? 

差一点骗了自己骗了你 

chà yì diǎn piàn le zì jǐ piàn le nǐ 

Almost deceived myself and deceived you

爱与被爱不一定成正比 

ài yǔ bèi ài bù yí dìng chéng zhèng bǐ 

Loving and being loved are not necessarily positively related 

我知道被疼是一种运气 

wǒ zhī dào bèi téng shì yì zhǒng yùn qì 

I know that being loved is a kind of luck 

但我无法完全交出自己 

dàn wǒ wú fǎ wán quán jiāo chū zì jǐ 

but I couldn't totally give myself away 

PRE-CHORUS: 

努力为你改变 

nǔ lì wèi nǐ gǎi biàn 

[I] worked hard to change myself for you 

却变不了预留的伏线 

qù biàn bù liǎo yù liú de fú xiàn 

But couldn't change the predetermined storyline [couldn't change the tragic ending of our love] 

Photos 

以为在你身边那也算永远 

yǐ wéi zài nǐ shēn biān nà yě suàn yǒng yuǎn 

I thought that just staying by your side could also be counted as eternity 

仿佛还是昨天 

fǎng fú hái shì zuó tiān 

[It feels] as if it were still yesterday, 

可是昨天已非常遥远 

kě shì zuó tiān yǐ fēi cháng yáo yuǎn 

but yesterday is already so far away 

但闭上我双眼我还看得见 

dàn bì shàng wǒ shuāng yǎn wǒ hái kàn dé jiàn 

though when I close my eyes, I can still see it 

CHORUS: 

可惜不是你陪我到最后 

kě xī bú shì nǐ péi wǒ dào zuì hòu 

Sadly, it's not you accompanying me till the end 

曾一起走却走失那路口 

céng yì qǐ zǒu què zǒu shī nà lù kǒu 

We walked together but lost each other at that crossroad 

感谢那时你牵过我的手 

gǎn xiè nà shí nǐ qiān guò wǒ de shǒu 

I thank you for having held my hand 

还能感受那温柔 

hái néng gǎn shòu nà wēn róu 

I can still feel that gentleness 

那一段我们曾心贴着心 

nà yí duàn wǒ men céng xīn tiē zhe xīn 

At that time, our hearts were attached to each others 

我想我更有权利关心你 

wǒ xiǎng wǒ gèng yǒu quán lì guān xīn nǐ 

I thought I had more right to care for you 

可能你已走进别人风景 

kě néng nǐ yǐ zǒu jìn bié rén fēng jǐng 

Maybe you have already entered someone else's world 

多希望也有星光的投影 

duō xī wàng yě yǒu xīng guāng de tóu yǐng 

How I wish I could be projected by the (romantic) starlight too [how I wish I could enter a new relationship too]
