Lyrics

The translation below, and other songs on this website, were intended to assist the English speaking audience who may be interested in knowing the general meaning of the lyrics. It was challenging for me, however, because it is very difficult to convey the full meaning of the lyrics through translation because besides understanding the words, one has to understand the culture to fully appreciate it, and in some cases, to make sense of it. Nevertheless, no matter in which language we are communicating, I hope that the audience will enjoy listening to these songs, and share my feeling that in music and arts, there are no boundaries between us.

As evening comes, I'm missing you, afraid of another lonely night
Then a long day without you, missing and loving you never fades away
Quietly, I walk a distance away, trying to forget our heartbroken love
Quietly, I walk a distance away so that you can forget all my life
Although long days have gone by, I still miss and love you deeply
Even a thousand days apart, my heart is still next to the one I love
Quietly, walking away, trying to forget the days we walked together
Quietly, walking away, but coming back I am still I am.
Oh, our love now is just like those beginning days
But now we wonder "why"
Why do we know each other?
Why do we love each other?
Why are we far apart?
Why it is a painful love story?
Love in life is hurtful, like a bitter fruit that gives us sweetness
Waiting for the one we always dream of in sleepless nights
She's like the moon, no matter how much I love her, it's just a dream
I am like a star, I keep on shining, but it's so far I'll always be afar.
Even a thousand long days gone by, my heart still loves you profoundly
Even our love is heart broken, please do not forget our love
Praying that God will guide and shine our broken hearts
Praying for tomorrow, in this world the love and life won't be the same as today.
