ok, i give in... i must admit that i'm missing chinese a tad bit... a TAD bit... and its all the chinese songs' fault... i think i've said this b4 but i'll say it again, chinese songs can express so much more emotions in the same amount of words or less (than english songs), which makes chinese songs so much more beautiful at times... hai, which is why i'm beginning to regret a little, not appreciating the finer side to the language... and i'm only realising this just as i have bade it goodbye... i used to love chinese songs back in pri skul and i actually daresay i liked chinese back then... but i guess i slowly drifted away from it and with the recent (or not too recent) teachers, i guess it just didnt really help the chinese situation at all...
but anyway, it just started with the song 关怀方式 by 陈汉玮 and 蔡礼莲... its a super old song and i've been hunting for it since 4ever... finally found it this morning and i just had to put it up here...
do you still remember the time when we were singing this song? i still remember the way you hummed to the tune, which sounded exactly like the female singer in the song's background... this song is just so simple, but somehow (to me at least) its just seems to mean so much more... that's not all, this morning as i was shopping for groceries with my family, i heard an accoustic version of a chinese song on the radio in the supermarket... i immediately caught up with the song and straight away i knew i've heard it b4... i just couldnt find the lyrics, nor the title... so it stuck with me the whole day until about an hour ago when i searched the net and found the song... it was actually 孤单北半球 by 欧得洋... man, the lyrics were at the tip of my tongue... and that's still not the worst part... i went through my collection of cds (which frankly, is not alot) and i found that album! it was the only chinese album i ever had, and it just had to be the album with the song that was stuck in my head the whole day (how else can fate meddle with your life?)... so i started listening to the album again and i realised that there are so many nice songs on it that i used to love... they're abit kiddy and naive but they're just so good, and since when have i escaped naivety? these songs are somehow more than just soothing melodies, they mean something... and seriously, no extra credit for being chinese songs...
really, you never miss the water until the well runs dry... of all things to miss, i'd never thought i would feel a thing for chinese, guess i'm human after all... and its the damn songs... why must chinese (love) songs be so good? maybe i should put up a few more songs, if i feel like it...
you know, i had a dream last night, that we got back together... i know it sounds cliché, but i really didnt wanna wake up... this might be weird coming from me but i thought that if we could be together again for just one more day, i would die happy... and it would be the most beautiful dream come true... words won't do me any justice, and i don't even know if you still come here... but really, i hope you get to hear the song, somehow... and all i need to know, is that between us, there's always still, a maybe
