DESCRIPTION:
Jay Chou is a Taiwanese musician born in 1979. One of my favourite Chinese singers because of the topics he covers in his songs, and that he actually writes most of the lyrics (for the ballads).

This one is in English "Give Me A Song's Worth of Time" (i.e. to the girl).

LYRICS:

VERSE
雨淋濕了天空　毀的很講究
yu lin shi le tian kong hui de hen jiang jiu
The sky drenched by the rain is ruined to the last detail

你說你不懂　為何在這時牽手
ni shuo ni bu dong wei he zai zhe shi qian shou
You said you didnt know why (our) hands were held at that moment

我曬乾了沉默　悔的很衝動
wo shai gan le chen mo hui de hen chong dong
I hung dry my silence, rashly regretting

就算這是做錯　也只是怕錯過
jiu suan zhe shi zuo cuo ye zhi shi pa cuo guo
Even if this was a mistake, Its just the fear of missing anything out

在一起叫夢
zai yi qi jiao meng
(When were) Together, its called a dream

分開了叫痛
fen kai le jiao tong
(When were) Separated, its called pain

是不是說　沒有做完的夢最痛
shi bu shi shuo mei you zuo wan de meng zui tong
Is it possible to say that unfinished dreams are most agonizing?

迷路的後果　我能承受
mi lu de hou guo wo neng cheng shou
The consequences of getting lost, I can bear

這最後的出口在愛過了才有#
zhe zui hou de chu kou zai ai guo le cai you
The last exit is only visible after having/being loved

CHORUS
能不能給我一首歌的時間
neng bu neng gei wo yi shou ge de shi jian
Can you spare me the time of a song

緊緊的把那擁抱變成永遠
jin jin de ba na yong bao bian cheng yong yuan
Tightly securing a hug and making it forever

在我的懷裏你不用害怕失眠
zai wo de huai li ni bu yong hai pa shi mian
In my arms, you can erase the fears of having sleepless nights

哦~　如果你想忘記我也能失憶
o~ ru guo ni xiang wang ji wo ye neng shi yi
Oh~ if you want to forget, I can lose my memories too

能不能給我一首歌的時間
neng bu neng gei wo yi shou ge de shi jian
Can you spare me the time of a song

把故事聽到最後才說再見
ba gu shi ting dao zui hou cai shuo zai jian
Say goodbye only when the story has finished

你送我的眼淚　讓它留在雨天
ni song wo de yan lei rang ta liu zai yu tian
The tears you gave, Ill keep it for rainy days

哦~　越過你劃的線我定了勇氣的終點*
o~ yue guo ni hua de xian wo ding le yong qi de zhong dian
Oh~ crossing the limit you drew, I decided where my courage will end


REPEAT VERSE + CHORUS


RAP1
哦　你說我不該不該　不該在這時候說了我愛你
o~ ni shuo wo bu gai bu gai bu gai zai zhe shi hou shuo le wo ai ni
wo~ You said I should not, should not, should not have at that moment said I love you

要怎麼證明我沒有說謊的力氣
yao ze me zheng ming wo mei you shuo huang de li qi
How do I prove that Ive not even an ounce of energy left to fabricate lies

哦　請告訴我　暫停算不算放棄
o~ qing gao su wo zan ting suan bu suan fang qi
Wo~ please tell me if pausing (a moment) is equivalent to giving up (forever)

我只有一天的回憶
wo zhi you yi tian de hui yi
Ive only memories of that day


CHORUS


RAP 2
你說我不該不該　不該在這時說了愛你
ni shuo wo bu gai bu gai bu gai zai zhe shi shuo le ai ni
You said I should not, should not, should not, have at that moment said I love you

要怎麼證明我沒力氣
yao zen me zhen ming wo mei li qi
How do I prove that Ive not even an ounce of energy left

告诉我暂停算不算放弃
gao su wo zan ting suan bu suan fang qi
Tell me if pausing (a moment) is equivalent to giving up (forever)

我說我不該不該　不該在這時才說愛你
wo shuo wo bu gai bu gai bu gai zai zhe shi cai shuo ai ni
I said I should not, should not, should not, said I love you only at that moment

要怎麼證明我沒有力氣
yao zen me zhen ming wo mei you li qi
How do I prove that Ive not even an ounce of energy left

我只有一天的回憶
wo zhi you yi tian de hui yi
Ive only memories of that day
