23rd Jan 2014 (想愛不相愛 – Ivana Wong)

The song that I chose for today is “想愛不相愛” by Ivana Wong. This was the Chinese theme song for a Japanese movie. The direct English translation of the title is “Want to love but not in love”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said the closer she gets the more she got disappointed as she knows his voice and actions too well. There is no feeling anymore, so it is impossible to like him again. If she got sick, she would pray for herself. When she gets tired, she will no longer wish that someone will hug her. If he worries about her, he need to understand that no matter what fall from the sky, they still need to live on. If love between them is diminishing and they are somewhere between love and not love, then if she wouldn’t keep waiting as she shouldn’t be greedy. Happiness has been slowed down by silences. She made up her mind that even if she wanted to cry, she will still try to learn. No need to be sad, if you got hurt you just need to go home. If they broke up, would he cry? Previously she was scare to turn on the light in a dark room, but now she got used to it already. She might want to vomit when she lost all her hope. When she calm down, she will start again. At the beginning, he once said that he wanted to meet up as much as possible, but now he doesn’t care about her. No matter how bad the thunderstorm is, when the cloud disappeared it’s over. She rather to see it through clearly rather than waiting for him to treasure her. Hope you will like the song.
