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 !
