kei其sat實ji自gei己yat一go個gang更hoi開sam心ji只dang等nei你gong講Truth is, I'm happier on my own; I'm only waiting for you to say it.

kei其sat實daai大ga家jou早yi已yim嫌daai大ga家keuk卻baan扮mong忙Truth is, we've long been tired of each other, and we pretend to be busy.

han恨yau有do多yat一dim點pung碰jong撞ying仍yin然mou無liu聊si事gon幹bat不gam敢da打gaau攪deui對fong方I wish we clashed a little more, but even bored, we don't dare bother each other.

yiu要si是nei你yun願yi意sing誠sat實gong講yat一tong趟If you are willing to be honest just once,

bei彼chi此dou都hei起ma碼gok覺dak得sik釋fong放at least we would both feel set free.

bat不yiu要huk哭ngo我ya也yan忍dak得liu了je這se些nin年loi來dik的wai委kuk曲Don't cry: I've put up with all the hurt of these years too.

mut沒faat法jan真sam心oi愛ha下heui去ji只hou好jan真sam心jan真yi意dik的git結chuk束We can't go on loving sincerely, so let's end it sincerely.

bit別joi再jou做ching情yan人jou做jek隻maau貓jou做jek隻gau狗bat不jou做ching情yan人Let's stop being lovers: be a cat, be a dog, just not lovers.

jou做jek隻chung寵mat物ji至siu少ho可oi愛mai迷yan人A pet is at least cute and charming.

wo和nei你bat不chau瞅bat不choi睬jeui最jung終ji只wui會sing成wai為dik敵yan人Ignoring each other like this, we'll only end up enemies.

leun淪wai為gau舊pang朋yau友si是fau否yau又ching稱sam心Sinking into old friends: would that suit you any better?

mut沒yau有sam心ji只jeung像haan閒yan人With no heart in it, we're like idle strangers.

yeuk若yau有hung空naan難dou道yau有hung空ho可jip接man吻If we have spare time, does that mean it's time to kiss?

jyu註ding定chi似gwo過lou路yan人mak陌sang生nei你jam怎mo麼sau手jan震We're bound to be strangers, like passers-by, so why are your hands shaking?

cheung長kei期bei被bik迫lyun戀oi愛ya也jan真bei比sat失lyun戀gang更chaam慘Being forced to stay in love so long is truly worse than being dumped.

cheung長kei期baan扮yin演yeuk若mou無kei其si事bun般gang更kwan困naan難Pretending for so long that nothing is wrong is even harder.

si是ngo我jyun專dang登faan反ying應maan慢ming明ming明wai為si時sam甚maan晚paai牌yat一jou早goi該yiu要taan攤I was slow to react on purpose; it was far too late, we should have shown our cards long ago.
