顾音贞, 对不起 Gu Yinzhen, I’m Sorry

“Gu Yinzhen… If I had known then that this would be how your story ended, I never would have brought you back with me. I’m sorry…” 【Verse 1】 The day I first met you, the peach blossoms were in full bloom. From that moment on, I selfishly swore that I would love you, that I would make you mine. But how could I have known your heart already belonged to someone else? And still, shamelessly, I took you away from him and kept you by my side. 【Chorus】 All these years, you cried and begged me, “Let me go. Let me return to him.” But I selfishly kept you with me, believing that one day, your heart would turn toward mine. I thought if I loved you long enough, one day, you would come to love me too. Yinzhen, I was wrong— your heart was never mine to choose for you. 【Verse 2】 When he finally came for you, I still refused to let you go. The throne burned beneath my feet, and my kingdom was buried in the flames. But I have never regretted loving you, nor have I regretted losing everything. Even though I never won your heart, Yinzhen, losing everything for you… was still worth it. 【Bridge】 But today, suspicion blinded his heart, and in the end, you were the one who paid the price. The man you never stopped loving was ultimately the one who cast your life aside. Yinzhen… I’m sorry. If I had known he would one day fail you, if I had known this would be your ending, then on that day, I never would have taken you away. I would have let you remain there— beneath those peach blossoms. 【Final Chorus】 The sword that once took my life in the end… took yours as well. The heart you guarded for a lifetime was finally shattered by the one you loved most. Perhaps… if I had never taken you away, fate might have chosen another path for you. Gu Yinzhen… I’m sorry. If I had known this would be your fate— I never would have… brought you back with me.
