你的回话凌乱着
Ni de hui hua ling luan zhe
Your response is lost in confusion.
在这个时刻
Zai zhe ge shi ke
At this moment
我想起喷泉旁的白鸽
Wo xiang qi pen quan bang de bai ge
I recall a dove in a room with a fountain.
甜蜜散落了
Tian mi san luo le
The sweetness has dispersed. 
情绪摸名地拉扯
Qing xu mo ming de la che
It’s only dragged-out emotion.
我还爱你呢
Wo hai ai ni ne?
Do I still love you?
但你断断续续唱着歌
Dan ni duan duan xu xu chang zhe ge
You are intermittently singing
假装没事了
Jia zhuang mei shi le
Pretending it doesn’t matter.
时间过了 走了
Shi jiang guo le zou le
Time passed, it’s gone.
爱情面临选择
Ai qing mian lin xuan ze
Our love is faced with a choice.
你冷了 倦了我哭了
Ni leng le juan le wo ku le
You’ve grown cold and tired, I’ve cried.
离开时的不快乐
Li kai shi de bu kuai le
Your unhappiness upon leaving
你用卡片手写着
Ni yong ka pian shou xie zhe
You have written down on a card.
有些爱只给到这
You xie ai zhi gei dao zhe
When love comes to this,
真的痛了
Zhen de tong le
It truly hurts.
怎么了 你累了
Zen me le ni lei le
What happened?  You’ve grown tired.
说好的 幸福呢
Shuo hao de xing fu ne
What about the happiness we promised each other?
我懂了 不说了
Wo dong le bu shuo le
I’ve figured it out but not said it.
爱淡了
Ai dan le
Love has been diluted.
梦远了
Meng yuan le
My dreams have gone far away.
开心与不开心一一细数着
Kai xin yu bu kai xin yi yi xi shu zhe
The difference between being happy and unhappy is becoming a thinner line.
你再不舍
Ni Zai bu she
You don’t give up again.
那些爱过的感觉都太深刻 我都还记得
Na xie ai guo de gan jue dou tai shen ke wo dou hai ji de
The emotions of having loved are too deep.  I still remember them.
你不等了 说好的 幸福呢
Ni bu deng le shuo hao de xing fu ne
You didn’t wait.  What about the happiness we promised each other?
我错了 泪干了 放手了 后悔了
Wo cuo le lei gan le fang shou le hou hui le
I’ve made a mistake, wiped away the tears, let go, and regretted it.
只是回忆那音乐盒还旋转着
Zhi shi hui yi na yin yue he haixuan zhuan zhe
It only hold memories, but the music box is still playing.
要怎么停呢
Yao zen ma ting ne
How’s it supposed to stop?

Repeat All

说好的 幸福呢
Shuo hao de xing fu ne
What about the happiness we promised each other?

There were lots of mistakes in the beginning of the original lyrics, so I tried to fix them.  Obviously, the person who wrote it was just guessing what Jay was mumbling and didn't do a particularly good job without the lyrics book.  If anyone else with a lyrics book notices any more mistakes, please say so!

yup... i just noticed a couple of lines that were a little different so i typed up the lyrics from the lyric book & posted it...
i probably should've just post those lines eh? sorry for confusing you hehe... i totally didn't mean to be a smart ass T.T
not too much difference though, just a several words... i think it was considering considering how jay's singing is sometimes so difficult to make out... :]

1. 
"你开始的不快乐
Ni kai shi de bu kai le
You started not being happy.
你用卡片信写着
Ni yong ka pian xin xie zhe
You are writing notes.
有谁爱只给到这真的痛了
You shei ai zhi gei dao zhe zhen de tong le
Who do you love that you give them to?  This is truly sorrowful."

the one in the lyric book:

離開時的不快樂 / 你用卡片手寫著 / 有些愛只給到這 / 真的痛了 /
Li kai shi de bu kuai le / ni yong ka pian shou xie zhe / you xie ai zhi gei dao zhe / zhen de tong le.


2.   
"我懂了 不说了
Wo dong le bu shuo le
I’ve figured it out but not said it.
爱断了 梦怨了
Ai duan le meng yuan le
My love is broken, I've regreted my dreams.
开始你不该信疑 一心述着你再不舍
Kai shi ni bu gai xin yi yi xin shu zhe ni zai bu she
You shouldn’t doubt in the beginning, when your heart tells you not to give up."

the one in the lyric book:

我懂了 / 不說了 / 愛淡了 / 夢遠了 /
Wo dong le / bu shuo le / ai dan le / meng yuan le.
開心與不開心一一細數著/ 你再不捨 /
Kai xin yu bu kai xin yi yi xi shu zhe / ni zai bu she /

those are the major differences i think... not sure if there are any other ones

this is byfar the best song in his new ablum tune wise and meaning wise
thanks for the translation

Actually, to me "Lan Ting Xu" was the most meaningful, and I liked the tune better, but it was also hard to understand.  I think my teacher was very surprised that I would try to translate it.

I think the one on YouTube was from Jay-Chou.net.  I actually pointed out some problems in the Pinyin for that one.  I was rather happy with the way my translation came out, though.  Big improvement since the last album came out!

I think I should provide a credit for the version sent1mental posted:

bigjayfan - jay-chou.net

Having said that, said error is [sic].  I think I'll adjust a couple of lines in my translation, since the other translation makes a bit more sense.
