I sang this song last night, I big KTV song. It's a big break up song.

如果那两个字没有颤抖.....................If those two words had not shaken my world

我不会发现我难受........................I never would have felt the pain I did

怎么说出口也不会是分手...................Beyond possibility, that we could break up

如果对于明天没有要求....................If you live life without a dream,

牵牵手就像旅游(女友)....................Then what we had, was just for fun,

成千上万个门口...................It is inescapable that over time,

总有一个人要先走...................One person will tire.

怀抱既然不能逗留...................I can still feel your embrace

何不在离开的时候...................At the time we broke up,

一边享受一边泪流...................Feeling relief and at the same time deep sadness

十年之前...................Ten years before,

我不认识你你不属于我...................You were a stranger, not yet mine.

我们还是一样陪在一个陌生人左右...................We were both embracing another,

走过渐渐熟悉的街头...................But with the passage of time,

十年之后...................Ten year later,

我们是朋友还可以问候...................We are old friends that check-in occasionally,

只是那种温柔...................I still feel our spark,

再也找不到拥抱的理由...................But we keep drifting further apart,

情人最后难免沦为朋友...................After the break up, we remained friends.

直到和你做了多年朋友...................After being friends with you for this long

才明白我的眼泪...................I discovered through tears

不是只为你而流...................That you were not the one,

也为别人而流...................That you have another

=====================================================================================================================================================

While I encourage any questions, 'quires and qualms, my hope is that rather than simple criticism, we instead make constructive suggestions with specific examples.

My initial words are not the end all, but rather the instigation of further creation.

I suggest you seriously review this part. Also there should not be a 只 in the third line.

I couldn't read all.

I think this line should be more like "If my voice wasn't trilling while I said those two words."
