世界上最远的距离 The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world
　　Is not between life and death
　　But when I stand in front of you
　　Yet you don’t know that
　　I love you
　　The furthest distance in the world
　　Is not when I stand in font of you
　　Yet you can’t see my love
　　But when undoubtedly knowing the love from bot
　　Yet cannot
　　Be together
　　The furthest distance in the world
　　Is not being apart while being in love
　　But when plainly can not resist the yearning
　　Yet pretending
　　You have never been in my heart
　　The furthest distance in the world
　　Is not resist the yearning yet pretending you have never been in my heart
　　But using one’s indifferent heart
　　To dig an uncrossable river
　　For the one who loves you　　
　　
　
　　世界上最遥远的距离，
不是生与死
　　而是我就站在你的面前，
你却不知道
我爱你
　　世界上最遥远的距离，
不是我站在你面前，
你却不知道我爱你
　　而是明明知道彼此相爱，
却不能在一起
　　世界上最遥远的距离，
不是明明知道彼此相爱，
却不能在一起
　　而是明明无法抵挡这股想念，
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你放在心里
　　世界上最遥远的距离，不是明明无法抵挡这股想念，
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你放在心里
　　而是用自己冷漠的心对爱你的人掘了一条无法跨越的沟渠
