A Song a day: 30th Sep 2013 (流淚眼望流淚眼

Monday, September 30, 2013

The song that I chose for today is “流淚眼望流淚眼” by Joey Yung. I remember I often listen to this song when I was on the way to uni. The direct English translation of the title is “Crying eyes looking at crying eyes”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. It begins by telling us that the crying eyes are looking at the crying eyes. They talk for ten nights and then for another ten nights. They have talked so much that the eyes are swollen like eggs. Crying eyes likes to get sad together. How difficult, how sad and how to share; if they still cry for things that happened ages ago it would be painful. So let stop crying, then at least they will save a night. If a group of people get together to cry, and take turns to talk about the sadness of getting dump, this is a very sad group. So perhaps they should challenge each other to get over that special someone. Between the crying eyes, the environment seems to get colder, the darkness seems to spread amounts everyone in the room. Crying eyes looking at crying eyes, neither of them wanted to be separated from their partner. They could comfort each other, but they are still lonely. How hard and how sad it is, they wonder how they could keep going. It is bitter, but there will always be an end to any healing process. If sadness become enjoyment, they you would cry for a few more nights. The sadness club is really just for a short transition, it shouldn’t be a long term involvement. So this time, let challenge ourselves to see who can dry our eyes first. But really, we don’t have time to go in a challenge for him. Hope you will like the song.
