搁浅 (ge1 qian3), describes a ship that is stranded or run aground, is one of Jay Chou's emotive ballads. Full of recrimination and remorse, Jay's character recounts the hurt he had wrought on his sweetheart (due to a misunderstanding, as seen in the MV) and proceeds, in characteristic Jay Chou style, to beat himself up emotionally for what he has done. Composed by Jay Chou, the song hits its depth of meaning with the lyrics and Jay's vocals, which is undeniably powerful, even with his garbled mumbling. Beginner to intermediate ability required for this one.
搁浅
久未放晴的天空 jiu wei fang qing de tian kong
依旧留着你的笑容 yi jiu liu ni de xiao rong
哭过却无法掩埋歉疚 ku guo que wu fa yan mai qian jiu
风筝在阴天搁浅 feng zhen zai yin tian ge qian
想念还在等待救援 xiang nian hai zai deng dai jiu yuan
我拉着线复习你给的温柔 wo la zhe xian fu xi ni gei de wen rou
暴晒在一旁的寂寞 bao shai zai yi pang de ji mo
笑我给不起承诺 xiao wo gei bu qi cheng nuo
怎么会怎么会你竟原谅了我 zen me hui zen me hui ni jing yuan liang le wo
我只能永远读着对白 wo zhi neng yong yuan du zhe dui bai
读到我给你的伤害 du dao wo gei ni de shang hai
我原谅不了我 wo yuan liang bu liao wo
就请你当作我已不在 jiu qing ni dang zuo wo yi bu zai
我睁开双眼看着空白 wo zheng kau shuang yan kan zhe kong bai
忘记你对我的期待 wang ji ni dui wo de qi dai
读完了依赖 du wan le yi lai
我很快就离开 wo hen kuai jiu li kai
(Repeat)
The sky that hasn't cleared up for a while
As usual retains your smile
(I have) Cried, yet no way to bury the guilt
The kite has run aground in the overcast sky
Missing (you), still waiting to be saved
I'm pulling the string
Reviewing the tenderness you gave
Loneliness that is scorching
Laughing at me for not being able to give a promise
Why is it, why is it
That you unexpectedly forgave me
I can only forever be reading the lines
Reading the hurt I caused you
I cannot forgive myself
So please treat me as if I am no longer here
I open both my eyes, looking at the empty space
Forgetting your expectations of me
(Once I have) Finished reading dependency
I will leave very soon
