最长的电影 (the longest movie)
词曲唱:周杰伦
​lyrics, composition and performance by Jay Chou

chinese lyric with hanyu pinyin romanization

我们的开始                   是很长的电影
wo men de kai shi/ shi hen chang de dian ying
放映了三年                   我票都还留着
fang ying le san nian / wo piao dou hai liu zhe
冰上的芭蕾                   脑海中还在旋转
bing shang de ba lei / nao hai zhong hai zai xuan zhuan
望着妳                          慢慢忘记妳
wang zhe ni / man man wang ji ni
 
朦胧的时间                   我们溜了多远
meng long de shi jian / wo men liu le duo yuan
冰刀划的圈                   圈起了谁改变
bing dao hua de quan / quan qi le shei gai bian
如果再重来          会不会稍嫌狼狈
ru guo zai chong lai / hui bu hui shao xian lang bei
爱是不是       不开口才珍贵
ai shi bu shi / bu kai kou cai zhen gui
 
再给我两分钟     
zai gei wo liang fen zhong
让我把记忆结成冰
rang wo ba ji yi jie cheng bing
别融化了眼泪      妳妆都花了
bie rong hua le yan lei / ni zhuang dou hua le
要我怎么记得
yao wo zen me ji de
记得妳要我忘了吧
ji de ni yao wo wang le ba
记得妳叫我忘了吧
ji de ni jiao wo wang le ba
妳说妳会哭          不是因为在乎
ni shuo ni hui ku / bu shi ying wei zai hu



"straight" english translation


our beginning / is a very long movie

it played for three years / i still kept the tickets

ballet on ice / is still spinning in my mind

looking at you / slowly forgetting you


time is a haze / how far have we drifted

the circle drawn by skates / who in the circle has changed?

if you could do it all over again / would you feel a little embarassed?
is love / only precious when nothing is said?


just give me two minutes

let me freeze the memory into ice

don't melt your tears / your makeup is all ruined

how can i remember this way?

remember you wanted me to forget?

remember you told me to forget?

​you said you would cry / but not because you cared
