11th Oct 2014 (錯的都是我 – Andy Lau)

The song that I chose for today is “錯的都是我” by Andy Lau. This song is a reader request. The direct English translation of the title is “I am the one that is always wrong”.

The lyrics of the song are about the protagonist’s girlfriend is wanted to be separated. The protagonist said if there are tears in his eyes, it is not because of regrets. If he feels a bit sad, it is also because he misses the past. He doesn’t want her to ask him why he is heart broken or why he is still trying to save their relationship. Perhaps even when then painful time is over, he will learn nothing. She said she wanted to fly freely and doesn’t need to be accompanied by anyone. She said love is like wine, drunk then awoke, awoke then drunk. He once thought that men wouldn’t cry, but he is gaunt because of her. Love is always a heartless cycle, no one can tell who is right or wrong. He is the one that is always wrong, so that is why he is hurt the most. He blames himself no letting her to understand the feeling of loving someone. He is the one that is wrong; couldn’t hold her back but only hold back loneliness. If his punishment is to be unhappy forever, he is still willing to wait for her to return. Hope you will like the song.
