一棵蘋果  The Apple

Words and Music by Ashin

 
After enduring an endless wait, dreams are dreams, I’m still just me
That time I forgot to persuade to stay, the most beautiful moment, unthinkingly and hurriedly let go

Once hoping to embrace a rainbow, flourishing open blossoms, that innocent smile
Suddenly a wind blows through, that blink of an eye is the only thing left of me

I don’t understand this life’s many worries, why do they bother me
Whose fault is this really, still I don’t give up
Oh, this life’s many worries, the humor this world has given me
Is this trying to tell me the rising tide must eventually recede

I always want people to come keep me company, choke down the bitter fruit
Oh, then taste a little of a beautiful dream, you have to first speak up before that winter can finally pass

There are people who’ve been at my side, lived in my brain, pierced a hole in my heart
There are people who’ve become photographs, piled in the corners, dust frozen like snow
If time could flow backwards, I think I’d still be willing to risk making these mistakes
Anyway that’s just how it is, I know I’ve tried my best

I think of when I’ll be far, far away
then will there be anyone who knows that I lived once on this lonely planet
When far, far, away, at the everlasting and unchanging finale
There shouldn’t be anyone able to steal away my eternal feeling

I’ll always want to have one of my songs, sung out loudly
Oh and look again at the vastness of heaven and earth, I’ve lived not long, not short
With just enough contentment for me, actually I’ve lived well, I’ll eat another apple
