"When You're Here" (有你在) - Vanness Wu 吳建豪 Translation

[kycoo]

My attempt at translating the song I mentioned in MQ Episode 6. I admit that some parts, especially the beginning of the chorus and the second verse, are a little weird, but I've always found it difficult to translate Chinese lyrics. :/ I'll probably update this from time to time as I think of better ways to say things, so just consider this a rough translation for now.

VERSE 1:
太多話 哽在我胸懷
太倔強 不要你陪伴
來不及 證明的未來
會在哪兒 為了我等待

Too many words are caught in my breast
Too stubborn, didn't want you to be with me
A future too late to prove
Where will it wait for me?

CHORUS:
有你在 牽手就能取暖
有你在 擁抱就能勇敢
如果時間倒轉 有你在
你不喜歡的我會改

When you're here, hand-holding makes me warm
When you're here, embraces make me brave
If time could reverse and you could be here
I would change what you don't like

有你在 平凡就不平凡
有你在 遺憾就能美滿
如果生命重來 我坦白
你會懂我的愛

When you're here, ordinary becomes extraordinary
When you're here, regrets can be blissful
If life could be relived, I confess
You would understand my love

VERSE 2:
當秘密 被真心揭開
但傷害 我全都明白
帶回來 回憶和期待
只有你 不能被替代

When secrets are sincerely uncovered
But I understand all the injuries
They bring back memories and expectations
Only you cannot be replaced

CHORUS:
有你在 牽手就能取暖
有你在 擁抱就能勇敢
如果時間倒轉 有你在
你不喜歡的我會改

When you're here, hand-holding makes me warm
When you're here, embraces make me brave
If time could reverse and you could be here
I would change what you don't like

有你在 平凡就不平凡
有你在 遺憾就能美滿
如果生命重來 我坦白
你會懂我的愛

When you're here, ordinary becomes extraordinary
When you're here, regrets can be blissful
If life could be relived, I confess
You would understand my love

有你在
有你在
如果時間倒轉 有你在
你不喜歡的我會改

When you're here
When you're here
If time could reverse and you could be here
I would change what you don't like

有你在 平凡就不平凡
有你在 遺憾就能美滿
如果生命重來 我坦白
你會懂我的愛

When you're here, ordinary becomes extraordinary
When you're here, regrets can be blissful
If life could be relived, I confess
You would understand my love
