so what happens now


so what happens now
music:
L.A. Reid, Babyface, D. Simmons
lyrics: Lin Xi
arrangement: Terry Chan


what makes night and day reverse in colour
what makes our memories fade away beyond recognition
the greater the turbulence our relationship suffers, the more we don't know who has caused a greater erosion
how much I need you, yet I have never cherished
passion, it has completely burnt out
turning back after indulgence, it is clear that we can never go back
heaven and earth, suddenly impart no warmth
this world no longer allows two hearts to fall in love like a burning flame

in the past we pursued bitterly, and yet we've come to this point
we love so uninhibitedly, yet it no longer can continue under this vast horizon
in the past we only knew how to enjoy, and we've suffered from our own doing
the past has determined the future, it's clear that we can never go back
how can we go back

perhaps we can no longer breathe in each other like we used to
perhaps you and I never play our roles with all we have
in the past we mistook the fact that after romance, it would be a long lasting life
we only knew how to stake claims, but never knew how to cherish
passion, it is like a new sheet of paper
once has it been stepped on, it can never turn back to its original colour
heaven and earth, they can feel tired like our emotions
this world no longer allows
two hearts to fall in love like a burning flame

initially it was as natural as the wind, flowers, and snow
since when did our embraces and kisses become as if they were contaminated
what makes our visions become clouded by thick smokes
and we can no longer see clearly our yesterdays

we want it badly but always out of reach
how come we have embarked on the path of no return
heaven knows it's getting late
our love is exhausted
suddenly we have learned that the more we can keep each other at bay the better

天大地大
曲: L.A. Reid, Babyface, D. Simmons
詞: 林夕
編曲: 陳明道

甚麼使黑夜白日顛倒一一變色 ?
為什麼你我漸認不出當初記憶 ?
彼此關係越劇烈震盪, 越被誰侵蝕
多麼需要你, 偏沒法珍惜 !
感情原來全消耗盡 !
放任以後回頭才知努力也沒法還原 !
天地像突然地不再熱暖 !
這世界逐漸難容火一般的心熱戀

當初辛辛苦苦追逐, 到了這地步卻結局 !
愛到這樣盡情為何天大地大仍難繼續 ?
當初只知相戀享受, 到了這日自作自受 !
過去註定未來原來不能回頭怎能回頭 !?

或者不可像舊日呼吸彼此氣息 !
或者你我未盡力演好彼此角色 !
當初只誤會浪漫過後是漫長生命
只懂得佔有偏沒有珍惜 !
感情就如白紙那樣
踐踏以後從前顏色永遠沒法還原 !
天地猶如情惑會倦
這世界逐漸難容火一般的心熱戀 !

本來如風花雪自然
你共我在何時連擁吻都似沾上污點 !
甚麼使彼此眼光似隔了污煙 ?
再也沒法還原清清楚楚的昨天 !

想得到卻想不到 ! 怎麼會同踏上不歸路 ?!
天知道時候已不早 ! 情感虛耗
方知道原來是越淡薄越是淡薄越是好 !

begin again


begin again
music: Clarence Hui
lyrics: Lin Xi
arrangement: Chiu Tsang Hei


let's live without a name effective today
let's follow our emotions to do silly things
I no longer have any courage to know
what's in store for me
let's not think about anything from now on

let's use an excuse saying it is not meant to be
let's forget about time and year
the one whom I love the most
is not in love with me
let's just look for a one night stand

in fact I am too tired to ask
when my dreams will come true
it's my fault, I shouldn't have waited repeatedly

is life about waiting from dusk to dawn
I am too afraid, my future is just the same
is life about finding a direction
who has the same soul worthy to share with me
(perhaps beginning again, I can discover......who understands)

不如重新開始
曲: 許願
詞: 林夕
編曲: 趙增熹

不如從今天起沒名字 !
不如隨著情緒作傻事 !
沒勇氣再知道
有甚麼等待我
不如從此不想任何事 !

不如隨便推搪沒緣份 !
不如忘掉時間或年份 !
被我最愛一個
愛著的不是我 !
不如隨便找一夜情人 !

其實我已厭了問
何日讓夢變真
是我錯了 ! 錯在一等再等 !

生命是否是天黑等到天亮 ?
我卻太害怕 以後亦是同樣 !
生命是否必需找一個方向 ?
誰擁有同樣的心靈值得我分享 ?
(重新再來或者可能尋找到......誰明白)

begin again - turning over a new leaf


Begin again was a deliberate change of direction. Without a shadow of doubt, Stardust Factory produced a high quality project, yet without tying all the tracks with a clear and coherent concept. Since 1987, Sandy and her team began producing concept albums, which had proven to be successful and groundbreaking. Six years passed and perhaps it was time to try something "new". To many fans, this was a change that required some adjustments.

promise of a better tomorrow

promise of a better tomorrow
music: Sandy Lam / Anthony Lun
lyrics: 周耀輝
arrangement: Alex De La Cruz


scattered all over the world, how accustomed to rootlessness and tears
who actually cares for whom
but don't you know, I have heard from your heart
your calls that transcended vast distances
in a sea of people, you and I may be afraid
being in the same boat, there is I on the journey who will cherish you

never desert you, even if we are miles apart
we are still together
never forget, let's always keep in mind
the never dying promise
of sailing through tomorrow together
and creating a better future

you are lying in darkness, and perhaps will never expect, anyone to understand
the trembling heart in the wind
but don't you know, but can't you hear, from my heart
I have been gently echoing to you

never desert you, even if we are miles apart
we are still together
never forget, let's always keep in mind
the never dying promise
regardless of place and time


never desert, I'll give you, a beautiful heart
never forget, let time be the witness
the never dying promise
of sailing through tomorrow together
and creating a better future

不捨不棄
曲: 倫永亮, 林憶蓮
詞: 周耀輝
編曲: Alex De La Cruz

散於天邊海角 習慣多少漂泊 和眼淚
誰又願意珍惜誰
但你知不知道 是我已經聽到 從你心
越過天涯在叫喚

茫茫人海中 你也許驚惶
同浮沉顛簸 途中有我 珍惜愛你
不捨不棄 縱分千里 也是一起 莫失莫忘
讓我們念記 不死的諾言
同渡明天 闖開新景致

躺於漆黑的你 也許不敢希冀 誰領會
顫抖風中的心靈
但你知不知道 但你聽不聽道 從我心
為你溫柔地拍和

茫茫人海中 你也許驚惶
同浮沉顛簸 途中有我 珍惜愛你
不捨不棄 縱分千里 也是一起 莫失莫忘
讓我們念記 不死的諾言
何地何天 !
不捨不棄 我交給你 美麗的心 莫失莫忘
讓歲月做證 不死的諾言
同渡明天 闖開新景致 !

a world of love

a world of love
music / arrangement: Andrew Tuason

lyrics: 周耀輝

tides and the setting sun are retreating
as if blossoms are blooming on the fine sand
gently opening wide
the eyes in my heart
and I can see this beautiful new world

I look up to heaven
who is calling me
setting me free like a child again
I look at the flowers
and their fragrances nourish my soul
from now on I love, I cherish everything

from now on I fall in love with the ocean breeze
and every smile that is filled with love
so light, I follow you and the ocean breeze
to dance in this wide open world

I look up to heaven
who is calling me
setting me free like a child again
I look at the flowers, and their fragrances make me understand
the meaning of love, the meaning of cherish

from now on I fall in love with the ocean breeze
and every smile that is filled with love
so light, I follow you and the ocean breeze
in a slow dance I embrace my world

from now on I gaze into the wind with you
looking at the sky, at the flowers, at your smile
gently opening wide
the eyes in my heart
I can see my world in your heart

愛的世界
曲/編曲: 杜自持
詞: 周耀輝

潮水與夕陽漫退
幼沙裡彷似泛起蓓蕾
輕輕開了 我心裡一對眼睛
讓我窺見這美好新世界

我看天 誰在那天邊呼喚我
令我又 再猶如孩童奔放
我看花 然後這花芬芳我心靈
從此我愛 為此我戀

從此我戀上海風
與一切充滿愛的笑容
輕輕的我 再跟你那海風
在這廣闊的世界中跳舞

我看天 誰在那天邊呼喚我
令我又再猶如孩童奔放
我看花 然後這花香給我知道
什麼叫愛 什麼叫戀

從此我戀上海風
與一切充滿愛的笑容
輕輕的我 再跟你那海風
漫舞中我擁抱我的世界

從此我跟你看風
看天看花看你的笑容
輕輕開了 我心裡一對眼睛
在你心裡窺見我的世界

someday

someday
music: George Michael

lyrics: Richard Lam
arrangement:
趙增熹

perhaps we have to wait for a few days
perhaps it may happen today
don't know if it is possible to happen sooner
but I know everything will happen
say it one more time or less
it wouldn't change anything

someday, someday
you will finally discover
it is my silhouette that electrifies your heart
unexpectedly
someday, someday
finally there will be a late evening
your mind explodes in excitement solely because of my smiling face

as if we are meant to be
falling into the deep end of love
even if nothing has yet happened
but I know it very well

someday we will kiss and embrace
we can no longer hold back and will compose intimate nights
SAY!
someday we will kiss and embrace
our souls filled with excitement
our futures must happen like this

someday, someday
you will eventually discover
you will be unease, if you haven't seen me in half a day
today, even if you repress all the flames
but there are sparks already flickering in your eyes

始終一天
曲: George Michael
詞: 林振強
編曲: 趙增熹

也許要等數天 ! 也許會於這天 !
不知究竟會不會可以可以快一點 !
卻知道一切將會飄到
多說一遍, 少說一遍, 也不可變 !

一天, 一天, 始終你有天將發現
是我身影輕輕不經意使你心觸了電 !
一天, 一天, 始終有天深宵裡面
令你思海精彩將會只有我那張淺笑面 !

像註定你共我 定要飛進愛的深河
就算一切未發生過 但我很清楚

始終一天我們將擁吻
情將不禁 造成纏綿夜半 ! SAY!
始終一天我們將擁吻
二人靈魂把興奮盛滿 !
以後未來必一起這般......

一天, 一天, 始終你有天將發現
是你輾轉反側假使你跟我半天不見面 !
今天, 身邊即使你強壓低火與焰
但有一些火花早已於你雙眼正中隱與現 !

heartglow

heartglow
music: Dick Lee

lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement:
黃偉年

in a monochromatic sea of people
where's the shore
I am taking some time to find out
it is so easy to forget the shore
and to look back where we've come from
in a fast-paced world, on every face
I finally have the time to look
having the time to steal a glance
how people are in a rush on their journeys

there is life hidden in every face
even if they look a bit weathered
there is coolness in every face
and yet they can make your heart glow

one can find heat and warmth in numbers
and rediscover the strength in our hearts
love can be awakened by the people
so that we can commit to setting sail together
(and co-create everyday!)

one can feel the strengths of footsteps in numbers
spreading the strengths in our hearts
looking up I walk in stride
everyone is invited to come with me
(we'll travel together again in numbers)

in a monochromatic sea of people
on every face, there are accounts that can never be settled
on every face, there's indecisiveness
I wish I could cast away sorrow

life is fleeting, where's the shore
now I can finally tell the direction
I can tell the direction, in order to bring forth the morning light

every face is preoccupied by livelihood
I will no longer be complacent
every face may be forgotten eventually
but I am still willing to lend a helping hand

暖暖紅塵
曲: Dick Lee
詞: 周禮茂
編曲: 黃偉年

人海滄滄 那裡是岸 此際歇息看一看
那裡是岸 最易遺忘 回望去來於那一方
人間匆匆 每個面上 總算有空再一看
再有空去窺看 人在這途上 怎去趕

面孔每張生命藏 也許帶點滄桑
面孔每張雖是涼 卻令心溫暖生光

人群內找到熱和燙 重尋昨天心裡力量
人群喚醒天生的愛 再一起結伴航 (每一天同開創)
人群內只覺步兒壯 傳揚我的心裡力量
抬望眼我邁步前向...... 誰也邀請一起同往 (人群內再邁步同往)

人海滄滄 每個面上 總有算不清的脹
每個面上 偶亦徬徨 期望我 能驅走哀傷

人生匆匆 那裡是岸 此際看清了方向
我看清了方向 來為這途上點曙光

面孔每張生活忙 我不會再偷安
面孔也許終淡忘 我願可幫上一幫

let me walk this way with you

let me walk this way with you
music:
陳秀男
lyrics: Richard Lam
arrangement: Joshua Wan


don't walk too fast to play solo ahead of me
so fast that I can hardly keep up with you
also don't fall behind, because in the wind
I'll be lost without you leading the way

in fact we can play duet on our journey
if we can stretch out and hold our hands together
our footsteps fall into a perfect synchrony, if you and I
are willing to travel together on this long journey

are you brave enough to open up our own universes
drink each others' great and bitter wine of life

endless passions I'm willing to bestow upon you
can you give me all the excitements for which I've been longing
tumbling together can take me away from the desert in my heart
and forget all the lonely nights I've faced in the past
(completely illuminate my dreams and nights)

don't walk too fast to play solo ahead of me
so fast that I can hardly keep up with you
but please don't fall behind as well, if you can let me
travel with you on this long journey

寵愛
曲: 陳秀男
詞: 林振強
編曲: Joshua Wan

別步在前面飛快獨奏
快至我沒法可跟你走
但亦別留後 因風中我
亦也不知怎領導著你走

但實在途上可以合奏
你與我若各伸出兩手
步伐沒前後 假使彼我
漫漫長路也肯一塊走

敢不敢張開彼此宇宙
飲彼此的苦酒美酒 ?

千千億億寵愛為你我肯傾瀉 !
可否精精采采送我所等那些 ?
翻翻滾滾使我別去心中荒野
忘懷從前曾獨對孤獨長夜
(完完全全燃亮我的夢和夜......)

別步在前面飛快獨奏
快至我沒法可跟你走
但亦別留後 可否准我
漫漫長路那方一塊走 ?

time of my own

time of my own
music: Dick Lee

lyrics: Calvin Poon
arrangement: Joshua Wan

could you please for now
let me temporarily get away alone
get away from layers of stress
get away from suffocating love
get away from the busy crowd, stay away

could you please for now
simply don't admonish me that I should know better
no need to guess where I am
no need to worry, as I will be back
I will rekindle all beautiful sparks with you again

In this world, if there is love
if there is dream, if there is romance
if there is fate, I will return
And I have always believed in love
believed in dreams, believed in romance
believed in contradictions, yet will always love each other
(believe that with you, we can always love each other more)

don't say separation
I just wish to let go for now
surreptitiously exist in solitude
think about how I should love others
even if you are worried, please let go

躲起來
曲 Dick Lee
詞 潘源良
編曲 Joshua Wan

請你 暫時
暫時准我 獨個躲開
躲開身邊壓力重重
躲開天天緊逼的愛
躲開世上擾攘人群 避開

請你 暫時
暫時不要 罵我不該
不必猜測我在何地
不必擔心我定回來
當跟你再會願重燃異彩

人世間 要是有愛
要是有夢 要是有情
要是有緣 定回來
而我始終 信是有愛
信是有夢 信是有情
信是有矛盾 依然相愛
(信定會和你 更能相愛)

休說別離
但求可以 暫且拋開
偷偷的一個地存在
想一想應該怎麼愛
假使你此刻在徬徨 願放開

come back to love

come back to love
music:
David Koven, Darice Homs
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Tsang-Hei Chiu

can't touch your dreams
can't feel your heartbeats
can't hear your words
can you hear me cry
I stand before you again
seeing you, who remains silent
trying to fight back my tears
but how can I not feel my wrenching heart

don't you know I'm calling
don't you know I'm beside you
thinking of your past
suffering through days and nights
even if it's an abyss of love
I still can't let go
come back to love
today
come back to love
can't you give me some warmth
I can't resist your love
don't you know I am still willing

don't you know I'm calling
don't you know I'm beside you
don't you know my heart is confused
don't you know I have never stopped
thinking about your past
I wish I could linger
to love you more
to love you a day more

I wish you would fall for me once
even if love has left, a fragment remains
can't we fall in love deeply again
let's say and admit that
love dwells in tomorrow

come back to love
stay for a day more (today)
come back to love
don't you know nothing has changed
I can't resist to love you
can't it come true one more time
let me rest on your shoulder
let me rest peacefully on your shoulder
come back to love

回來愛的身邊

詞: 周禮茂
編曲: 趙增熹

觸不到你的夢 感不到你心動
聽不到你的話 聽得到我哭吧
又站在你跟前 望著是你默然
正要強忍不哭 那裡禁得心酸

知不知我呼喚 知不知我依伴
知不知我心亂 知不知我不斷
念著是你當年 日夜在痛纏綿
縱似愛的深淵 我卻再想依戀

回來愛的身邊 這天 回來愛的身邊
可否給我熱暖 ? 我是捨不得愛戀......
可知我心裡依然 ?
知不知我呼喚 知不知我依伴
知不知我心亂 知不知我不斷
念著是你當年 但願讓我迴旋
再愛你多一點 再愛你多一天

求你也再次為我醉一遍
愛就算曾離棄過尚有點 OOH!
可不可再次熱戀 ?
說吧說聲但求承認
愛尚有的是明天 !

回來愛的身邊留多一天 (這天)
回來愛的身邊 可知一切未變 ?
我是捨不得愛戀...... 可否再一次依然 ?

讓我躺於你的肩 讓我安躺於你的肩
回來愛的身邊 !

baby, it's you

baby it's you
music:
B. Bacharach, M. David, D. Williams
lyrics: Lin Xi
arrangement: Roel Garcia

only the songs to which you listen make sense to me
only your words and thoughts provide concrete meanings

yes you can, you can, everything you can
close to you, I'm so spoiled,
just like a child
(who makes me begin)
the longest story
happiness is.....
it begins with you oh......
it begins with you oh......

only your favourite books make me fall in love with poetry
(no other people can)
the hand which is tightly held by you
makes me feel so good, even if it hurts
(it's so easy to love you)

only this time, this time, this very time
I'm embraced by the grace from heaven
hence I can feel this way
(who makes me begin)
the longest story
happiness is.....
(the final meaning of love)
it begins with you oh......
it begins with you oh......

all the true love is similar
close to you, I'm so dependent, just like a child

I am, and so are you
(baby it's you)
once it's begun
it's too late to regret, baby

it's so easy to love you passionately
yet there is no way to stop now
the most importaint thing in this world
is about you and me
now in this world
I am the happiest woman
whenever it begins
time has been flying by

baby it's you

由你開始
曲 B. Bacharach, M. David, D. Williams
詞 林夕
編曲 Roel Garcia

是你所聽的歌 才有意思
是你所想所講 便有意義

可以可以一切都可以
靠近你 我多麼得寵 如孩子
(誰令我開始) 最漫長故事 快樂是
由你開始 HOO... 由你開始 HOO...

是你喜歡的書 令我愛詩 (再無別人可以)
被你緊握的手 痛極也是好事 (愛著你極輕易)

只有一次一次這一次
愛受到上天的恩寵 才能如此
(誰共我開始) 最漫長故事
快樂是 [最終的愛意]
由你開始 HOO... 由你開始 HOO...

所有真正的愛都相似
貼近你 我的倚持如孩子

我已是 而你也是 (BABY IT'S YOU!)
一開始 後悔太遲 BABY

熱愛著你太易 但卻沒法竭止
世上最重要是 我共你的事
現我在這世上 是最愉快女子
那月那日開始 歲月似飛馳

i want you back

i want you back
music: Dick Lee
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Andrew Tuason

when the exciting party's over
I feel hollow again
it's empty like the wind blowing in the streets
is it cold, or is it painful?
to embrace the wind, how can it be an embrace
I don't want my heart to be agitated again
by your arms, by your face, and by your vivid passion

I've been thinking of you so much tonight
I know I shouldn't have thought of you at all
love me, come here to love me
please come here to love me
I'll cast away my self-esteem in exchange for a night with you

can you give me tonight or not
I've never been so in lust before
love me, come here to love me
please come here to love me
forget it
it's so fruitless

perhaps I'm a wildflower
yet you're like weeds
how can I pretend I'll never know about that
you've been holding others in your arms shamelessly
I may know of everything, so what
whenever I see you, I only fall for you
I don't want my heart to be agitated again
by your eyes, by your sensuous lips, and by your passions

it's me who keep thinking about you
is it me who keep thinking about you
I don't want to be agitated again
by your aroma, by your sweat, and by your flame of passion

it's me who keep thinking about you
yet I know you'll never feel the same way as I do
the lonesome night is passing by, oh
I don't care whether it's me thinking about you or not
no matter how much I think about you, it is fruitless

oh my baby I want you back!
I need your love!

愛吧就來愛愛我吧
用我一晚自尊去換你
在這夜可不可給我 ? 從來沒這麼情慾過
愛吧就來愛吧就來愛愛我吧
算了吧 ! 吧 ! 沒結果 (沒結果 沒結果)

或許我是野花 偏你是野草
怎再又裝作不知道 你亂懷亂抱
知道又怎麼 ? 你一笑我便醉倒
不要又心中洶湧 你眼眸你熱唇
你是情做

想你是我 想你是我麼 ?
不過又心中洶湧 你氣味你汗滴
你的愛火

想起你的是我 想起你不是我
長夜過長夜過 OH!
在這夜是我是否我 再想著你又怎結果 ?

wake up


wake up
music: Anthony Lun
lyrics: Richard Lam
arrangement: Anthony Lun
additional arrangement: Chiu Tsang Hey, Clarence Hui


I saw you searching everywhere
pursuing after fame and fortune
you have turned yourself into a predator

You exploit! exploit! exploit so cruelly
and never give anything in return
you see nobody else in your eyes

gradually you don't even care about me
the promises of yesterday
you dismiss them all like dust and crawling ants
forget about love, you only care about self-serving interests
you said you were afraid of squandering your life

yet after you have robbed off everything
after your soul has gone numb and withered
to exist
so meaninglessly in that empty shell
without true love and affection
how awfully sad and pathetic

wake up! wake up quickly
don't you know you are terminating your life
(there is no life when you don't understand love)
wake up! wake up quickly!
listen to the call of love in my eyes

wake up! wake up quickly!
(son't you know this is the final call of love?!)
come back! won't you come back!
back to love!
back to love!

rush, rush, rush
you shed your sweat everyday
you are perpetually busy for your own self
forget about love while you are
fixating on the wealth in this world
your eyes just beam

我見你在轉在尋 追逐名利
你變了像個獵人 !
取 ! 取 ! 取 ! 極端凶狠 只取沒回贈
你眼裡沒有別人 !

對我漸不關心 當日承諾
全部你已當作是蟻是塵 !
忘掉了愛 現你只關心私慾滿足
你說怕浪費一生 !

然而全部你搶到後 靈魂麻木了 枯了後
茫然存在那空殼內 全沒有真愛在
太悲亦太哀 !

醒醒 ! 盡快清醒 ! 知不知你在殺掉你生命 ?!
醒醒 ! 盡快清醒 ! 聽一聽我在眼內愛的呼聲 !
醒醒 ! 盡快清醒 ! 當不懂愛便再沒有生命 !
醒醒 ! 盡快清醒 ! 知不知這是最後愛的呼聲 ?!
Come back! Won't you come back!
Back to love!
Back to love!

闖 闖 闖 天天在流汗
你永遠也為你在忙 !
忘掉了愛 但當偷偷看天下財物
你兩眼便會生光 !

come back to love - a strong gospel influence


Come Back To Love is a special project, a project that signifies the inaugural album of Stardust Factory. This album was released approx. 10 months after Wildflower. Although Come Back To Love did not quite match up to the artistic breakthrough achieved by the previous album, it did bring a few pleasant surprises to music lovers.

This album includes three tracks composed by Dick Lee: I Want You Back, Time On My Own, and Heartglow. However, this time we could hardly find a trace of fusion. All the tracks in this album represent many influential musical archetypes: dance, R&B, ballad and jazz. Even when a Chinese instrument like pipa was used to embellish Baby, It's You, the overall arrangement was still an all-out signature Euro-pop.

This album also came across as having a very strong gospel influence. Aside from the
spectacular choral arrangement in Heartglow and the mysterious Gregorian chant in Let Me Walk This Way With You, almost all the tracks convey some sort of psalm-like, "love thy neighbour as thyself" messages. Last but not least, Singaporean arranger Joshua Wan was well known for his jazz and gospel music, no wonder this album has a such a definitive spiritual touch.

Sandy Lam's vocal performance continued to progress in this album, showcasing a vast range of techniques and revealing an array of unprecedented subtleties. Most of the outdoor photos were shot on location in Canada (i.e., Montreal and Quebec City), and it was uncanny to see so many familiar places in this album. Without the participation of Kinson Chan, I am of the view that the art direction of this album is slightly less sophisticated than SL's previous ones.

All in all, this is a solid and well produced project, and the very last overt concept album released by SL.

drifting

drifting
music: Dick Lee
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Dick Lee


endless is the night, the moon, the sky
when lying down exhausted, the heart is also sinking
when lying down exhausted, why can't I dream
have I ever felt so tired before?

drifting is the night, the earth, the sky
once for a dream, I have given my all
once for a dream, why did I end up empty-handed
when awake, I'm in tears

hollow is the night, the dream, the heart
the yet unfinished dreams, are all frozen
the yet unfinished dreams, why are they still heavy
after a dream, my heart still trembles
from where came the morning breeze

夢了
曲, 編: Dick Lee
詞: 周禮茂


夜深 月深 天深

疲倦了躺下 心也在下沉
疲倦了躺下何以竟未能夢 ?
倦意幾曾這樣濃 ?

夜飄 地飄 天飄
曾為了一夢 不了且一了
曾為了一夢何以竟一撲空 ?
夢了醒來飄淚紅

夜空 夢空 心空
仍未了的夢 此際都冰凍
仍未了的夢何以依舊沉重 ?
夢了竟仍心震動
在哪吹來破曉風 ?

thanks for your love

thanks for your love
music: Robert Civilles
lyrics: Richard Lam
arrangement: Alexander De La Cruz


turning back, I look at you again
you were my meaning of existence
we once dreamed together and firmly believed
we could walk together all our lives
without having any disappointments

on the challenging journey, we had tried
to hold tight to each other
in adversities, we never gave up our dreams
ironically, dreams may last forever
but we can only dream together up to here

almost there
(destiny always plays tricks on people)
we could be the best couple in the world
(pursuing together all our lives)
although we have been giving sincerely
at the end we still go separate ways
I could only say:

thanks for your love
and all your memories
all the wonderful things about you
all the wonderful things about me
so beautiful
so worthy to remember
so hard for me to let you go

if we could fall in love again one day
I still wish you would be every detail of my story
look up, and look at me again
no one is to blame, we just leave it as an unfinished business
let all of me, kiss you one more time
thanks for loving me so deeply in the past
the moment you said goodbye, the world suddenly came to an end
yet you have given me, the meaning to live

when I belonged to you

thanks for your love
and all your memories
all the wonderful things about you
all the wonderful things about me
so beautiful
so worthy to remember
when I still belonged to you

(thanks for the love)
thanks for your love
(thanks for the love)

time might erase certain things
yet it can never erase everything
on a certain day, on a certain night
when I still belonged to you
(thanks for the love)
thanks for your love
time might erase certain things
but I am always grateful to you
on a certain day, on a certain night
how hard for me to let you go

回頭望 多看你一次

你是我 是我存在意義

曾同夢 深信會可以

一世共行 無落寞故事


崎嶇中試過 為彼此相擁

患難中 不放棄我倆心裡夢

可笑是夢兒 永遠不止

你卻只可以同造夢到此 !


差一些 (情緣總愛弄人)

能成為一對最好的情人 (了結半生追尋)

然而付出真 到最後也分

我只有說 :
Thanks for the love and all the memories

曾極精彩的你那些

精彩的我那些

多麼美 多堪記 !

多麼再令我不捨你 !


如來日 可再愛一次

也願你是我全部故事

抬頭吧 多看我一次

不責備誰 留下未了事

准許整個我 吻你多一遍

謝謝昨天 愛我不淺

當你話別時 世界終止

你卻有給過我 活著意思 !


當我屬於你 !

you are the one I am waiting for

you are the one I am waiting for (duet by Danny Chan and Sandy Lam)
music: Jose Mari Chan
lyrics: Calvin Poon
arrangement: Andrew Tuason


I've never fantasized about the features of my lover
only relying on imaginations, how can one be sure
my perfect match is like an ideal, which is as distant as a star
in a sea of individuals, if we are made for each other
we'll be able to meet somehow

and today, standing in front of you
silently, I can almost hear your thoughts
I stand beside you and you me
let this happiness wash away all the sorrows
you're the one I am waiting for, we've finally met

in the past, the features of my perfect match
have faded away when I became older and wiser, as if it was only a dream
glancing over the ever-changing world, where passion is fleeting
I no longer expect that love can witness anything

but today, standing in front of you
earth and heaven seem to be sewn together by a thread
(silently, I can almost hear your thoughts)
i can see clearly, every single day from now on
staying beside you, how warm it can be
you're the one I am waiting for

so many things in the past, seem to be never-ending
as if they all lead to this day
so many things in this world, seem to be never-changing
as if they all bring me closer to you

the sailing heart of mine, eventually stays ashore
a thousand wishes, seem to have been answered today
just like a dream

eventually we have met
eventually we have seen each other

我要等的正是你 (林憶蓮, 陳百強 合唱)
曲: Jose Mari Chan

詞: 潘源良

編: 杜自持


從來沒幻想心中情人特徵

全都倚靠想像 誰能定

情人像理想, 始終遙遙像星

人海中, 到底可有緣能遇見


而這一天, 站在妳面前

沒作聲, 心思都仿彿聽見

我身邊就是你身邊

讓這歡欣去底消嗟怨

我要等的那位正是妳, 終於遇見


從前在理想中的情人特徵

成長中已消逝 如夢境

凝望世事匆匆 痴情如幻影

漸不敢再奢望, 愛情能做證


而這一天 站在你面前

地與天 都仿彿牽於一線

(沒作聲 心思都仿彿聽見)

看得清 日後每一天

在你身邊 多麼多麼溫暖

我要等的那位正是你

(終於遇見)


多少往事, 不斷 就似為了今天

多少世事, 在變 助我達你身邊

一顆浪蕩的心 終於停泊於岸邊

一千個痴情願 這天同時也得到呼應

如夢境


終於見面

crazy for you

crazy for you
music: T. Gale, K. Hairston
lyrics: Richard Lam
arrangement: 陳澤忠


let me enter into your arms, your soul
despite you have someone else waiting for you
don't you leave, don't leave
but if you're coming near
please don't ask whether this is appropriate or not

like a blasting storm
like waves and oceans
like a swiveling quicksand
don't try to analyze
should you expect a long wonderful night
if you let tonight and myself
to fall for you hopelessly, oh

don't you know from the very beginning
I can't stop loving you
it's been a long time since I've been crazy for you
the flames of passion have consumed my heart
I love you, yet how much do you really know
it's been a long time since I've been crazy for you
(love me like crazy, come loving me like crazy)

can you enter quickly into my shivering soul
don't you know I can't hold back anymore
I live for whom? wait for whom?
come here for whom? I can answer them wonderfully
only if I have you

if I ran to you, would you push me away
refuse me or embrace me with kisses
please use your arms to say
let's kiss passionately!
let me fall for you even I'll be scared by my own insanity!

(Rap written and performed by Dick Lee)
Baby can't you see, you're the only one for me
I'm thinking of you night and day, I say
how can that be?
you make me weak in the knees
I want to set myself free
but you're the only one I want
& I am crazy for you, see?

准許我進入你臂內, 靈魂內
即使你有別人等待
你別離開, 別離開 !
若前來, 請不要問其實這該不該 !

如狂風吹吧 ! 像浪與海 !
如浮沙捲吧 ! 別要分析
要預料長夜無盡美妙
若讓夜和我 為你痴到透了 ! OH!

知不知一開始 已發覺愛你不可止
我早已為你, 為你瘋了 ! YEH!
而戀火把此心燒焦 !
我愛你, 你卻知多少 !
我早已為你, 為你瘋了 ! OH OH!
( 瘋戀我吧 ! 來瘋戀我吧 ! OH OH - YEH! )

可否快進入, 我震動靈魂內 ?
知否我已極難忍耐 ?
我為誰生 ? 為誰等 ? 為誰來 ?
得到你便全部答得精彩 !

若是我奔向你, 願問會推開我麼 ?
惋拒或狂擁我 ?
快用臂胳說吧 ! 熱吻吧 !
讓我為你瘋到自己都害怕 !

(Rap written and performed by Dick Lee)
Baby can't you see, you're the only one for me?
I'm thinking of you night and day
I say, how can that be?
You make me weak in the knees
I want to set myself free
But you're the only one I want
And I'm crazy for you, see?

so it goes

so it goes
music:
R. Flack, B. Miles, M. Angelou
lyrics: 小美
arrangement: Terry Chan

slightly cool is the autumn
when it touches my wounds
slightly cool is the wine
when bitterness slowly pervases
slightly cool is me
who never forget the excuses
when saying goodbye in a late autumn

why in those days
we never knew how to love
why after breaking up
we realized we were so much in love
why at night
there was swelling sadness
were they all inappropriate

in this fleeting life, I journey
on in solitude
with my lament of love vapouring in the wind
haphazardly I stand in the street corner
gently engulfed by the evening haze
as if I've lost my map
(I pray in the darkness)

a heart without dreams can never learn how to love
let my lonely heart bid you farewell
loneliness is drifting near at this moment
do I think it is unfair

I almost have you back
yet my heart is afraid to wait in silence
(my heart is making a curse)
at night, I think of tomorrow
and I'm not staying around anymore

love is a rush of wildwind
the scent of a summer rose
a whistle blowing on a distant track
and when it goes
it goes
(so it goes)

微涼
曲: R. Flack, B. Miles, M. Angelou
詞: 小美
編: Terry Chan


微涼的秋 蕩來傷口
微涼的酒 苦澀輕透
微涼是我 未忘藉口
道別某個深秋

為何當天 不懂去愛
為何分開 方知熱愛
為何夜了 蕩來感慨
是否不應該 ?

匆匆一生獨自上途
風乾情感的苦惱
偶站進街角墮進了夜霧
像消失地圖 (在漆黑?默禱)

無夢的心不懂去愛
讓孤單心靈失去你
寂寞感覺此際蕩來
是否不甘 ?

差一點把你再擁有
但我心卻害怕靜後 (心卻在詛咒)
夜了想到以後
不在逗留

Love is a rush of wild wind
The scent of the summer rose
A whistle blowing on a distant track
And when it goes, it goes.

hello my loneliness


hello my loneliness
music: 陳秀男
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Andrew Tuason

hello, feelings
do you still remember
when we ran into the breeze together
hello, feelings
who treated me as good as you
and gave me more than enough to squander
you said you were getting slothful
and would like to hide in a lazy corner
I said I was feeling cold
and would like to be single
hello, feelings
come and hold my body
come and hold my empty body

hello, feelings
sorry I've left you behind and ran away to work
hello, feelings
I almost forgot I didn't like any restraints
you said you were getting used to
being left behind everyday
I said it was too late for me to feel sorry
I'd also like to call it a day
hello, feelings
come and hold my body
come and hold my empty body

you said I had become aloof
and would neglect you again
I said you were too introspective
you wouldn't be surprised at all
hello, feelings
come and hold my body
come and hold my empty body

my loneliness

mercy


mercy
music: Dick Lee
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Terry Chan

the umbrella in my heart
has been tugged rigorously in the storm
while the rain is pouring down

I quietly say a prayer
for the nights I was lost
in drunken solitude

distort my vision
arouse my desires
the wine is flowing down
who will take away my long lonely nights
I hope for an amnesty
who is willing to render me

mercy mercy me! (mercy)
mercy mercy me! (mercy)
mercy mercy me
oh let my heart grow wild
oh let my heart grow wild tonight (for one night)
mercy! mercy

I don't want to hide
there is also a tug of war in my heart
which silently cascades

I hold fast my umbrella
standing in the rain to watch vehicles racing by
and spend my night as such

impair my vision
put off the imbalance
my heart is now withering
it cannot grow wild temporarily
I hope for an amnesty
can someday somebody render me

every night what has been tangling me
is actually my own self
I'll wait for a night that I can be wild again
tonight I only want to stay in the wind and sigh
exhausted, yet I still can't forget the nights being wild

心中雨遮 被猛風肆意拉扯 雨傾瀉

歪曲我視野 帶動我的邪

酒也在流射 漫長夜誰願轉借 ?

只奢盼特赦 誰人願意賒 ?


Mercy Mercy Me! (Mercy!)

Mercy Mercy Me! (Mercy!)

Mercy Mercy Me!

准我又准我又心野

准我再心野在這 (某) 夜

(Mercy, Mercy)


不想掩遮 在我心也有拉扯 暗傾瀉

撐起雨遮 在雨中看看飛車 渡這夜


萎縮了視野 撲滅了傾斜

心也在零謝 暫時未能又心野

只奢盼特赦 來日為我賒


夜夜在纏住我 這個它卻也是我

等等等只等一晚給我再度野

這晚卻願獨留在風中心輕嗟

疲倦但也但也未忘心野夜

love and life


music: 陳耀川
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Andrew Tuason

oh let me smile, it might not be easy
oh let me smile, I insist
oh let me smile, I am still willing to try
in the past, it was me who buried
my own rational mind

the moon says I can
the sun also approves
after crying all these times
I only wish for this day to arrive

oh let me smile for just once, I think
oh let me smile away my sadness
oh let me smile for just once
I'd ask for nothing else if I could just simply smile

oh let me smile about this story
oh let me smile about my infatuation
oh let me smile with my self-reliance
in the future, I can
remember the irony of love

love can become too comfortable
and rather dissatisfying
after all these hardships
I just call it quits like this

oh let me smile for just once, I think
oh let me smile about the will of heaven
oh let me smile for just once
if I desert you, it was never intended

it's okay, if I can still smile
oh let me smile, who can I rely on?
I wish I could smile one more time
it's really out of my hands

dreamer


dreamer
music/arrangement: Dick Lee
lyrics: Thomas Chow

the deserted voice has risen again
yet how many deserted feelings still linger
if one never listens, never makes contact, one will never feel the pain
if I don't bother to see, don't bother to recall, nobody will bother to ask me
about the things I've got today
they are too much to manage

heaven, it ends day after day
earth, it ends day after day
my heart can't predict what's in store
I'm no longer insignificant
let yesterday come to an end
perhaps
in a certain month
on a certain day
on a certain night
I'll feel tired

how often people embrace changes
how frequent people make up their minds and march forward decisively
a clear day, followed by a rainy day
it seems to end but it actually ends in vain
even if your future is not very promising, it doesn't matter

heart, it ends day after day
dream, it ends day after day
although it is hard to predict
my own determination
has not faltered at all
perhaps
in a certain month
on a certain night...

遺棄的聲音又響起了

遺棄的感覺偏剩下多少

不聽 , 不觸摸 , 不痛楚

懶看 , 懶記憶 , 懶問我

今天得到的叫甚麼 ? 管不了


天 , 亦天天的了

地 , 天天的了

心也未能料 我已再不渺少

讓昨天一朝了
或且某月某日某宵 , 我倦了

人有幾多天拾起改變

人有幾多次堅定地向著前

一天清一天風雨飄

似了似了不了地了

他朝得到的縱是小 不緊要 !


心亦天天的了

夢天天的了

雖也未能料 , 但是我的決心

沒有點滴動搖

或且某月某日某宵

drifting - a timeless classic

In retrospective, Drifting struck the fine balance between commercial success and artistic achievement. In light of the groundbreaking City Project trilogy, SL rose to superstardom in the HK pop music scene. Her next album became the centre of interest and generated many an expectation. Everyone was asking merely the same question: how on earth would SL surpass her achievement in pop music and bring more pleasant surprises to her fans? Deliver she did. In fact, Drifting built upon the experimental unison of oriental and occidental music elements found in Paradise in my heart, and carried it one step further in this album. In Dreamer I and II, Dick Lee created a masterpiece marrying traditional Chinese instruments such as er-hu and flute, with symphonic instruments such as grand piano and strings. And yet, the album also includes other genres of pop music, including R&B (Love and Life), funk (Mercy), hip house (Crazy for You), ballad (And So It Goes, Thanks For Your Love), duet (You are the One I am waiting for) and acoustic/piano ballad (Drifting). This album highlights yet another big leap forward in SL's vocal technique and performance, may that be a much broader and higher vocal range, or a more diverse and adaptable delivery that precisely nails down the genre of music in question. Drifting, like a black and white movie, is truly a timeless classic that remains evergreen and refreshing.

promise me


promise me
music: Beverly Craven
lyrics: Thomas Chow
arrangement: Andrew Tuason


you said you only wanted something from me for your memory
I said yet there were shattered dreams I didn't want to repeat
as if heaven has sent me this day
I could only say I will
my mind is confused, but passion is far from over

you said how could my cold hands feel so warm on your face
I said how could everything become so familiar in front you
an indescribably natural moment
an unexpected intimate evening
how warm when it arrives

without you, I still love you
we breathe in the same room again
I can't stand not to be with you
(I can't bear not to be with you)

without you, I still love you
I have never loved you as tragically and beautifully as I do
hold you tight, I hold you tight again

you asked if you could stay beside me and hold me to sleep
I feared that I didn't know how to hide my happy tears

a bittersweet moment of infatuation
a speechlessly passionate evening
yet tomorrow is not too far away

without you, I still love you
we breathe in the same room again
I can't handle such a wonderful surprise

without you, I still love you
I don't believe I can let myself lose you again
hold you tight, I hold you tight again

你說你 只想得到一些給你做個記念

如上天 差遣這一天 只好講句願 !
情還亂 尚有一些 未斷 !

你說我 冰冰的一雙手怎會暖在你笑面 ?
我說 怎麼你面前一切亦熟練 ?
說不出這一剎自然 ! 估不到這一晚纏綿
來得這麼溫暖 !

沒有你 還是愛你 !
同在這裡再呼吸這空氣
捨不得不一起 !
(不捨得不一起 !)

沒有你 還是愛你 !
從未愛你愛得這麼淒美
又抱緊 又抱緊(你) !

你說你 可不可於身邊跟我抱著再夜眠
我怕是 開心眼淚兒不懂得遮掩
笑不出這一剎情迷 ! 講不出這一晚意亂 !
明天偏偏不遠 !

沒有你 還是愛你 !
同在這裡再呼吸這空氣
經不起這驚喜 !

沒有你 還是愛你 !
從未信我再捨不得捨棄 !
又抱緊 又抱緊你 !

brief encounter


brief encounter
music/arrangement: Anthony Lun
lytics: Calvin Poon

looking at the afternoon sun
which brings a shower of golden rays
nobody could possibly resist the aroma of a cup of coffee
the world is just too busy, and a day too long
everyone should take a break to ease the stress

I meet you once again, so perfect as if we have a date
talking about our recent lives
we also create many fantasies

a chat is usually common, and will soon be forgotten
there is no need to cherish and treasure
looking back, everything seems to be just normal
but the way you think and act
while talking and smiling with you, I've also fallen for you

quietly I look at the sun again
while the shadows are lengthening
from our eyes we can see the thoughts of each other
we only meet by chance, and usually stay apart
I'd better finish my coffee one more time

we say goodbye again
and move on with our own lives
the day without having much to do
we can always meet in this cafe and chat again

looking up at the vast clear skies
where white clouds are embracing the setting sun
the streets begin to cool down slightly
in a breeze, everything seems to be exactly the same
but you're so good looking today
while talking and smiling with you, I've also fallen for you

if someday we meet again
could we possibly try to tell each other
the feelings in our hearts
if someday we meet again
I'm afraid there's no way
it could be as close as this encounter

沒有發生的愛情
曲/編: 倫永亮
詞: 潘源良

看午後太陽 灑一片金黃
誰也沒法擋咖啡的清香
世界實太忙 一天這麼長
好應該歇一歇減低緊張

又再與你碰上 約會似的恰當
便說你我境況 也共創出許多幻想

閒談本也尋常 在瞬間便遺忘
不必愛惜珍藏
回首看 明明一切如常
但你的所想所幹 說著笑著竟已戀上

再悄望太陽 影子更加長
從眼內看出了彼此所想
碰上是偶然 分開卻經常
祗好將咖啡再一杯飲光

又再說句再見 各踏各的方向
沒有約那一趟 再聚咖啡室中再講

抬頭天際茫茫 浮雲抱著斜陽
路中有點清涼
微風裡 明明一切如常
但你這天多好看 說著笑著竟已戀上

假使一天可再碰到
可否去嘗試告訴你我這心事
假使一天可再碰到
祗恐怕沒法子近似這一次相遇

flower in the wind

flower in the wind
music: Dick Lee
lyrics: Richard Lam
arrangement: Terrence Chan

who can forget in the morning haze
it was you who kissed my half-awakened body

who can forget on a long tender night

we smiled at each other, how genuinely it was
enchantment and intoxication
how much I wanted to pursue with you again
but a rootless soul like me must leave someday

look ahead and move on, will you
even if someday I'll miss you
in the coming years,
please try to completely forget about
once you have slept beside a wildflower in the wind
once you have fallen in love with a woman in the wind

as time goes by, people become older and wiser
you will finally find your own direction

you will forget in the wandering years
when you felt tired, you used to sleep in my arms
the wind and I, perhaps on my odyssey one day,
will come to and fro together
and finally find the things I really long for

look ahead and proceed forward, allow me
and let you go before I cry out my tears
in the coming years, please try to completely forget about
once you have slept beside a wildflower in the wind
once you have fallen in love with a woman in the wind


before you go away, come and kiss me
call me again with the intimate nickname of yesterdays
in the coming years, please try to completely forget about
once you have slept beside a wildflowerin the wind
once you have fallen in love with a woman in the wind

野花

曲: Dick Lee
詞: 林振強
編曲: 陳明道

誰能忘懷晨霧中 有你吻著半醒的身 ?
誰能忘懷長夜中 共你笑著 笑得多真 ?
痴共醉 多麼的想跟你再追
然而從沒根的我必須去
抬頭前行吧, 請你 !
儘管他朝必然想你
來年和來月請你盡淡忘
曾共風中一野花躺過...
曾共風中一個她戀過...

來年人隨年漸長 你會發現你的方向
忘遺從前流浪中 倦了, 愛睡我的中央
風共我 也許一天於天涯途上
來回尋覓中找到我所想
抬頭前行吧
准我 淚水哭出前捨你
來年和來月請你盡淡忘
曾共風中一野花躺過...
曾共風中一個她戀過...

臨行前, 來吧, 親我 !
用當天的小名呼我...
來年和來月請你盡淡忘
曾共風中一野花躺過...
曾共風中一個她戀過...

predestiny


predestiny
music/arrangement: Dick Lee
lyrics: Richard Lam

in the end of spring, beauty subsides

falling petals and dying souls
cross paths unknowingly.....

it's an unexplainable impression
as if I can foretell we'll be together like this

as if I've known you for a very long time


as if I've seen your bare shoulders before

as if I've kissed behind your neck before

on this naked night

the wildest fantasies take flight


your appearance might have changed
but I can feel somewhere in my previous life
drifting in some unknown space and time

I must have been with you like this before


as if I've been waiting for you all my life
as if I've been waiting for you all my life
can you tell me whether you feel the same way too

at one point you've been away

but we have been in love for millenniums


like a story of reincarnation

without revealing a single word

yet I can foretell it'll move me like this

as if I've known you are my direction

as if our encounter has been predestined

as if in some unknown space and time

I must have been with you like this before


as if I've been waiting for you all my life
as if I've been waiting for you all my life
can you tell me whether you feel the same way too


words cannot describe, no one can alter

we have gone beyond all limits of space and time


it is you who rekindle the feelings from my previous life

like the aroma of your perspiration

despite your departure
it will always stay on my burning lips

as if I've known in a particular segment of time

I must have been with you like this before

as if I've been waiting for you all my life
as if I've been waiting for you all my life
can you tell me whether you feel the same way too


as if I've been waiting for you all my life
as if I've been waiting for you all my life
can you tell me whether you feel the same way too
let's continue the unfinished story of our previous lives

let's fall in love

let's carry on the dreams of our previous lives

let's caress

let's perspire the way we did in our previous lives

let's lose our minds

let's reiterate the bedside whispers of our previous lives

let's say

as if my long hair is resting

on a dark night of our previous lives

and cascading down

if you can still understand the heartfelt words of this lifetime

let's lie down

再生戀
曲/編曲: Dick Lee

詞: 林振強


一朝春盡紅顏老
花落人亡兩不知
沒法解釋的印象
像已知必須這樣

共你彷彿早己像相識那樣

像見過的肩膊上 像吻過的頸背上

在這赤裸的晚上載著狂想 !

外表你或已改變 但總覺在這生前

盪於某段時空裡曾共你這樣 !


像一生等你 ! 像一生等你 !

可否講我知你的感覺也跟我一樣

(曾遠離曾共相戀千年長)


像個再生的故事 未有說出一個字...

但已仿彿知會是震撼如此 !

像知你是我方向 像早註定這一場

像知某段時空裡曾共你這樣 !


Words cannot describe, no one can alter...

We have gone beyond all limits of space and time...


是你勾起隔世感覺 猶如汗香

縱別離後都居於熾熱唇上 啊....

像知某段時空裡曾共你這樣 !


和我來延續他生的事吧... 愛吧... !

和我來重造他生的夢吧... 戀吧... !

和我來重滴他生的汗吧... 瘋吧... !

和我來重述他生的夢話... 講吧... !

長髮仍如在他生黑夜下, 散下...

如你仍明白今生心內話, 躺吧...
