Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “One Persistent Thought”
yī yǎn zhī niàn yī niàn zhí zhe
一 眼 之 念 一 念 执 着
In a blink of an eye, one persistent thought
zhù dìng jiù cǐ fēi é pū huǒ
注 定 就 此 飞 蛾 扑 火
Like a moth fated to fly into the fire
míng zhī shì huò wéi hé hái bú zhī suǒ cuò
明 知 是 祸 为 何 还 不 知 所 措
Knowing it’s wrong, why am I still lost
zuì hǎo bú jiàn zuì hǎo bú niàn
最 好 不 见 最 好 不 念
Best to not meet, best not to miss you
rú cǐ cái kě bú yǔ nǐ xiàng liàn
如 此 才 可 不 与 你 相 恋
If it’s like that, I won’t fall for you
duō yī bù de cā jiān jiù bù bù lún xiàn
多 一 步 的 擦 肩 就 步 步 沦 陷
A step, we brush pass each other, and I slowly fall in love with you
shì shí jiān de guò cuò
是 时 间 的 过 错
Time is at fault
ràng wǒ men zhī néng cuò guò
让 我 们 只 能 错 过
That only let us pass each other
wǒ duō xiǎng niàn nǐ duō yáo yuǎn
我 多 想 念 你 多 遥 远
The more I miss you, the farther away you are
zǎo zhī dào shì kǔ guǒ
早 知 道 是 苦 果
If I only knew that it would result in pain
zhè yī kè yě bú xiǎng táo tuō
这 一 刻 也 不 想 逃 脱
I wouldn’t want to escape this moment in time
kě xī zhè zì yǎn tài cì yǎn
可 惜 这 字 眼 太 刺 眼
“What a pity” those words hurts my eyes too much
liǎng gè shì jiè zhī hòu
两 个 世 界 之 后
Two worlds later
zhī hǎo qíng shēn yuán qiǎn yī yǎn zhī niàn yī niàn zhí zhe
只 好 情 深 缘 浅 一 眼 之 念 一 念 执 着
Can only accept the fact that love is deep, fate is shallow, in a blink of an eye, one persistent thought
zhù dìng jiù cǐ fēi é pū huǒ
注 定 就 此 飞 蛾 扑 火
Like a moth fated to fly into the fire
míng zhī shì huò wéi hé hái bú zhī suǒ cuò
明 知 是 祸 为 何 还 不 知 所 措
Knowing it’s wrong, why am I still lost
zuì hǎo bú jiàn zuì hǎo bú niàn
最 好 不 见 最 好 不 念
Best to not meet, best not to miss you
rú cǐ cái kě bú yǔ nǐ xiàng liàn
如 此 才 可 不 与 你 相 恋

我 有 多 么 想 念 你 有 多 遥 远
The more I miss you, the farther away you are
zǎo zhī dào jié jú shì bú néng kàng jù de cuò
早 知 道 结 局 是 不 能 抗 拒 的 错
If I only knew that destiny was a mistake that can not be avoided
tíng liú zài zhè yī kè

Frozen in this moment
