who knows we would become this close later
Wǒmen yí ge xiàng xiàtiān yí ge xiàng qiūtiān
Among us one is a summer person and another one is an autumn person
Què zǒng néng bǎ dōngtiān biànchéng le chūntiān
But we can always turn winter into spring
2. Nǐ tuō wǒ líkāi yì chǎng ài de fēngxuě
You dragged me out of a bad storm of love,
Wǒ bēi nǐ táochū yí cì mèng de duànliè

Yùjiàn yí ge rén ránhòu shēngmìng quán gǎibiàn
Meet someone and then life changes,

[Chorus]
Rúguǒ búshì nǐ wǒ búhuì xiāngxìn péngyǒu bǐ qíngrén hái sǐxīntādì
If it were not you, I wouldn’t believe that friends are more solid than lovers
Jiùsuàn wǒ máng liàn’ài bǎ nǐ lěngdòng jiébīng nǐ yě búhuì hèn wǒ zhǐshì mà wǒ jǐ jù
Even if I am busy with my relationship and left our friendship frozen, you don’t hate me but to scold me a bit
Rúguǒ búshì nǐ wǒ búhuì quèdìng péngyǒu bǐ qíngrén gèng dǒng de qīngtīng
If it were not you, I wouldn’t be sure that friends know how to listen better than lovers
Wǒ de xiánwàizhīyīn wǒ de yǒukǒuwúxīn wǒ líbùkāi darling gèng líbùkāi nǐ
My overtones, my saying things without meaning it, I can’t leave my darling and I can’t leave you.

Nǐ liǎojiě wǒ suǒyǒu déyì de dōngxi cái cháng pō wǒ lěngshuǐ pà wǒ wàngxíng
You know everything that I am gloating over, so you throw a wet blanket on me so that I don’t get too proud
Nǐ zhīdào wǒ suǒyǒu diūliǎn de shìqíng què wèi wǒ de měihǎo xíngxiàng bǎomì
You know every embarrassing things I’ve done but you keep the secrets to protect my image
