This song has the same melody as this song by Wakin Emil Chau 周华健 - 讓我歡喜讓我憂 [Let Me Be Happy, Let Me Be Sad]. The link can be found here
The lyrics of the song are about love and friendship. It begins with the protagonist thinking of her past. She remembers that she used to chat to this friend a lot. They wished that their friendship could stay forever. But she never thought that her friend had actually fallen in love with her, and that day, he expressed his love to her. That moment, she didn’t know what to say, she didn’t want to lie, but she didn’t want to say goodbye either, so she drank another glass of wine. No wonder people said that if you can’t be friends you can’t be a good boyfriend, that night she truly understand that statement. But now as they are already friend and she didn’t know whether they could take the extra step to become partner. Now they are awake and realised that their friendship still hasn’t change. She wishes that she can travel back in time to avoid the incident so that both of them could feel better. But through his eyes, she didn’t know how to reject his request. So she still doesn’t know how to distinguish between friendship and love. She is worry that one day when their love ends, they will not see each other again.
the time passed, we meet each other again spending the long night, talking about times when we were apart
fortunately, friendship is still like before
a word or two, all from the heart
who will think of, who can predict
actually your persistent love for me
had been hidden for so many years
at this day, finally it's going to be said
how can i lie to you cruelly
but i can't bear to be ruthless to you
i quickly drink another glass
can't make a decision with a clear mind
oh....
no wonder it was said that can't be good friends how to be lovers
finally tonight i heard
yet you and me are already good friends but can we become lovers
i'm afraid i still can't foresee
ah....
friendship if unchanged
finally both will awake
when the day come it sure can be heard
the eternal laughters of good friends
if we can go back time to avoid
maybe both of us would feel better
helplessly i see what's in your eyes
it's like i shouldn't have rejected your invitation
who knows how to verify
which is friendship which is love
only worry that when the fire of love burned out
existing good friend would be lost
sentence to sentence translation is a bit funny as the way chinese is expressed can be a bit different from english. basically it's about a girl met a long lost good male friend. the boy told her he had been admiring her secretly for many years. the girl was thinking whether to accept him or not worrying that if one day the relationship turns sour, she might lost him as a good friend.
