曾几何时我年轻过你亦如此
Remember when I was young and so were you
时光静止你我除爱别无所知
And time stood still and love was all we knew
我之初恋，亦是你的
You were the first, so was I
你我缠绵后你潸然泪下
We made love and then you cried
曾几何时
Remember when
曾几何时你我山盟海誓怡然漫步
Remember when we vowed the vows and walked the walk
心灵相交，共创美好，已然艰辛
Gave our hearts, made the start, it was hard
我们经历成长，生活坎坷
We lived and learned, life threw curves
有过快乐，有过心酸
There was joy, there was hurt
曾几何时
Remember when
曾几何时旧人故去新人坠地
Remember when old ones died and new were born
世事变迁，分分合合
And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged
你我相聚，散去
We came together, fell apart
我们心碎彼此
And broke each other's hearts
曾几何时
Remember when
曾几何时轻轻小脚拍出动人乐曲
Remember when the sound of little feet was the music
周复一周你我随舞
We danced to week to week
重燃爱火，找到信任
Brought back the love, we found trust
承诺我们永不放弃
Vowed we'd never give it up
曾几何时
Remember when
曾几何时而立之年觉老
Remember when thirty seemed old
如今回首，不过垫脚坚石
Now lookin' back, it's just a steppin' stone
曾经步步攀登终修得此
To where we are where we've been
说过你我总能重来
Said we'd do it all again
曾几何时
Remember when
曾几何时我们设想你我白发之时
Remember when we said when we turned gray
子女长大离巢之时
When the children grow up and move away
我们不会伤感，你我欣然
We won't be sad, we'll be glad
只因与你厮守此生
For all the life we've had
我们忆起曾几何时
And we'll remember when
曾几何时
Remember when
