红豆 [Hóng doù] [English translation]

Have yet to really experience

What it's like when it snows in earnest

If we'd shivered together

Perhaps we'd have had a better understanding of what it means to be warm

Have yet to hold your hand

While walking across the barren desert

Perhaps after experiencing that

We'd have learned to cherish the concept of unchanging love

There have been times, there have been times

When I'd be convinced that all things must come to an end

That there's a time for every meeting and every parting

For nothing lasts forever

And yet there have been times when I'd

Choose to hold on rather than let go

After seeing all there is to see,

Perhaps you'd have stayed to watch the stream slowly run its course with me

Have yet to boil the red beans

Down into a mushed up paste of wounds

If I'd shared some with you

Perhaps you'd have understood how painful it is for me to miss you

Have yet to really experience

The tender feeling of being kissed while awake

Perhaps it's only when you're around me

That you'd chase after the freedom of being alone

There have been times, there have been times

When I'd be convinced that all things must come to an end

That there's a time for every meeting and every parting

For nothing lasts forever

And yet there have been times when I'd

Choose to hold on rather than let go

After seeing all there is to see,

Perhaps you'd stay to watch the stream slowly run its course with me
