David Tao - 暗恋

___________________________________________________________

Still lonely, still lonely…

昨晚又再見到你
你還是那麼美麗
我緊張到話都不會說
就傻傻看著你

渴望永遠這距離
就是和你在一起
醒來發現這一切都只
是我的夢境

告訴自己要冷靜
卻又無法不想你
我的懦弱已經開始讓
我討厭我自己

是你對我有戒心
還是我沒有自信
可是誰也不能阻止我
我要暗戀你
So lonely

So here I am standing all alone
在某個街頭
有個我在這裡只為你等候
Here I am waiting just for you
開放我所有
希望你能瞭解你能夠接受
So lonely

今晚渴望再見你
雖然只是在夢里
短暫的甜蜜也勝過了
一輩子沒有你

就算沒快樂結局
就算從此死了心
我要付出我所有誠意
只要能感動你

我願意(我願意)

So here I am standing all alone
在某個街頭
有個我在這裡只為你等候
Here I am waiting just for you
開放我所有
我要為你怎麼做

你才接受我 (才接受我)
我喜歡 (我喜歡你)
我要你 (我要你)
我愛你

So here I am standing all alone (standing all alone)
在某個街頭
有個我在這裡只為你等候
So here I am waiting just for you
開放我所有
希望你能瞭解你能夠接受

I'm lonely

故事就說到這裡
就算你們再好奇
我想說的都已說完了
其餘是秘密

在那某一個街頭
會流傳某個旋律
那是我在輕輕唱著歌 我多愛你

Recently, Chinese singer/songwriter, David Tao 陶喆 released his 6th album 'Opus69/69樂章'.

I find one of his tracks《暗恋》to be extremely captivating. 暗恋can be translated to 'being secretly in love with someone'. Aside from the distinctive melody (I keep having this feeling that I've heard this melody before in an English song), the lyrics were really well written too.

The song perfectly describe a feeling of secretly loving someone, from feeling shy and stonned in fron of that person, couldn't stop thinking and dreaming about him/her, to feeling that you'll not be accepted or if that person will not love you in return. The feeling of always looking at the person you admire from behind, the frustration of wanting to confess and the fear of rejection. Stupidly deciding that you will wait for the person to turn around and take a look at you and tell you that he/she likes you too.

Well, if you're lucky, it might just happen. But the chances are not high. Of course, confessing right away like an idiot does not help either. XD
The fact is many of us were, are, or will be caught in situations like this. As Shakespeare said, "To be, or not to be: that is the question"
Unfortunately we will not have the answers until we've decided on our decisions, for better or for worse.

It has been raining all morning and I wonder if the feeling of depress is caused by the song or by the rain, or both? Actually I didn't have an idea as to what to share with this post other than this song. All I can say is so many has happened over the past 2 months and sometimes its fun to look back at your past. Well, I've wasted enough time being side-tracked. Enjoy the song~
