我在运河里潜水
I dived in the canal

我在运河里潜水
I dived in the canal

我最最怀念
I missed the most

运河的臭味
The stench of the canal

我在运河里撒网
I cast a net into the canal

我向岸边上张望
I looked out to the bank

我要把梦一场
I’d catch the dream

一网打上
In just one throw

曾经运河里有鱼
The canal used to have fish

曾经岸边上有你
The bank used to have you

白天我在河里换气
I caught my breath in the river during day

夜晚跟你一起喘息
I caught your breath in the night

一天城里来的人
One day the guy from the city came

他清理了运河
He cleared out the canal

你也要跟他走
You went away with him

“不是你不如他
“it’s not that he is better than you,

是运河不够潇洒”
it’s just the canal is not natty enough”

你这样对我说
You said to me

“不是你不如他
“it’s not that he is better than you,

是运河不够潇洒”
it’s just the canal is not natty enough”

你这样对我说
You said to me

你要去欲海里游泳
You went swimming in the ocean of desire

运河是海的喉咙
Canal is the throat of the sea

你是固执的孤舟
You are the stubborn lone boat

远离岸的守候
Away from the abiding bank

可你越是要远离
Further you went

就越迷失自己
More confused you got

你那不被珍惜的勇气
Your uncherished courage

让你愈发觉得委屈
Grieved you even more

如今运河太清爽
Now the canal is too fresh

你太遍体鳞伤
And you are too bruised

回到我的身旁
Coming back to me

“不是我不如她
“It is not that she’s better than me,

是世上太多傻瓜”
It’s just there are too many fools”

你这样对我说
You said to me

“不是我不如她
“It is not that she’s better than me,

是世上太多傻瓜”
It’s just there are too many fools”

你这样对我说
You said to me

“这个世界那么大
“The world is too big

却容不下个傻瓜”
To leave a place for a fool”

你这样对我说
You said to me
