Set the time forward one hour, because summer has arrived
Set the time back one hour, because summer has gone
But afterwards, why did we stop doing it?
You ask me, how the heck would I know
Set the time forward one hour, I can sleep earlier
Set the time back one hour, I should wear thicker clothes
But afterwards, why did we stop doing it?
You ask me, how the heck would I know

No air conditioner, no cell phone, no DVD
At that time I had no idea what land ownership was
Summer rain falls on my chest
Mama says don’t catch a cold, run back home to study
Didn’t understand being poor, didn’t understand the ways of the world, didn’t understand love
At that time the friends by my side were everything
So-called dreams, anyway it’s not what I do for a living
Seems like I lost myself while living life

Set the time forward one hour, because summer has arrived
Set the time back one hour, because summer has gone
But afterwards, why did we stop doing it?
You ask me, how the heck would I know
Set the time forward one hour, I can sleep earlier
Set the time back one hour, I should wear thicker clothes
But afterwards, why did we stop doing it?
You ask me, how the heck would I know

From one side it looks like a ridge, from another side it looks like a peak, distance and height are all different
Cannot see the true face of Mt Lu, because I’m standing on the mountain
From one side it looks like a ridge, from another side it looks like a peak, distance and height are all different
Cannot see the true face of Mt Lu, because I’m standing on the mountain

Set the time forward one hour, because summer has arrived
Set the time back one hour, because summer has gone
But afterwards, why did we stop doing it?
You ask me, how the heck would I know
Set the time forward one hour, I can sleep earlier
Set the time back one hour, I should wear thicker clothes
But afterwards, why did we stop doing it?
You ask me, how the heck would I know

Chinese lyrics

把时间调快一小时,因为夏天到了
把时间调慢一小时,因为夏天走了
可是这事儿,后来为什么不弄了
你问我,我哪儿知道啊
把时间调快一小时,我可以早睡啦
把时间调慢一小时,该添厚衣服啦
可是这事儿,后来为什么不弄了
你问我,我哪儿知道啊

没有空调,没有手机,没DVD
那时候 根本不知道房产是什么东西
夏天的雨打在我胸口
妈妈说别感冒了,快回家复习
不懂没钱,不懂世故,不懂爱情
那时候 身边儿的朋友就是我的唯一
所谓梦想 反正不是现在这行儿
好像活着活着 就活没了自己

把时间调快一小时,因为夏天到了
把时间调慢一小时,因为夏天走了
可是这事儿,后来为什么不弄了
你问我,我哪儿知道啊
把时间调快一小时,我可以早睡啦
把时间调慢一小时,该添厚衣服啦
可是这事儿,后来为什么不弄了
你问我,我哪儿知道啊

横看成岭侧成峰,远近高低各不同
不识庐山真面目,只缘身在此山中
横看成岭侧成峰,远近高低各不同
不识庐山真面目,只缘身在此山中

把时间调快一小时,因为夏天到了
把时间调慢一小时,因为夏天走了
可是这事儿,后来为什么不弄了
你问我,我哪儿知道啊
把时间调快一小时,我可以早睡啦
把时间调慢一小时,该添厚衣服啦
可是这事儿,后来为什么不弄了
你问我,我哪儿知道啊
