Spring's Last Blossom* (track 1)

song: C.Y. Kong/lyrics: Lin Xi

Every ant has a pair of eyes and a nose
Whether or not it is beautiful
Whether or not it misses by a hair
What does it matter?

Every human being cries in times of sadness
[And] eats to satisfy hunger
The difference can't be bigger than heaven and earth
It's nothing to be excited about

There's too much fascination, too little logic
[One plays] too many games
Only because of curiosity
What else would warrant
Such hysteria?
What would make one lose all hope?

Each and every idol is also this way
Once-revered idols
Disappear one by one
Who was once a sinner, who is God?
What kind of miracle do we await?

In the end I'm left alone
I can't be overly fastidious
In the end I face myself
And don't really approve of what I see

I'd be suspicious of anyone
Who gives me the whole world
I'm elated**
Yet spring's last blossom has bloomed

Each and every person
Who is more beautiful?
Each and every person
Who is sweeter?
Each and every person
Who is easier?
It's no big deal

Every ant will remain unruffled
No matter who it brushes by
What does it matter?

Every human being will tremble with fear
On encountering someone (s)he loves



Moon at that Moment (track 2)

song: Li Bing/lyrics: Lin Xi

At that time we were listening to music
Good thing I'd forgotten who sang it, who sang it
At that time there was a cup of tea on the table
Good thing I didn't drink it all, drink it all
Who can tell me how strong I have to be
Before I'd dare to reminisce and not forget?

If we'd stayed here at that time
Your hair would have been how long, how long?*
If we hadn't said goodbye at that time
Would this door have become a wall?
What difference does it make?
That which can be inhaled cannot be placed beside me[?]

Look; the moon at that moment
It used to represent someone's heart, in the end it's still the same
Look; the moon at that moment
After one night, it emerged as today's sunlight

Who can tell me what kind of religion
Would let people reminisce and not forget

Look back at the moon at that moment
It used to represent someone's heart, in the end it's still the same
Look; the moon at that moment
After one night, it emerged as today's sunlight

If we didn't have it at that time
If we possessed it at that time
Then what would have happened?



Hypnotize* (track 3)

song: Guo Liang/lyrics: Lin Xi

My first taste of cake
The first toy that brought consolation
The sun rose and set
The ice cream shed tears

My second taste of cake
The second toy that brought consolation
Strong winds blew, strong winds blew
The popcorn was beautiful

From beginning to end
Who did I forget?
Who did I remember?
From beginning to end
Let's count again
Let's count again
Was anything put to waste?

La...

The first time I kissed someone's lips
The first time I took medicine after falling ill
The sun rose and set
The ice cream shed tears

The second time I kissed someone's lips
The second time I took medicine after falling ill
Strong winds blew, strong winds blew
The popcorn was beautiful

Suddenly the sky brightens
Suddenly the sky darkens
All similar things
Flee to faraway lands
One two three years old
Four five six years old
A thousand autumns, a million ages**



Only Love Strangers (track 4)

song: Zhang Ya Dong/lyrics: Lin Xi

I fell in love with a scar
I fell in love with a lamp
I like to listen to the seconds tick away
I don't like other rumours

What I like is more naive than one's countenance
More innocent than a household pet
When I need a kiss
Just give me a kiss

I only love strangers
I only love strangers
(Come on, baby)

I fell in love with a certain person
I like a certain body temperature
I like to look into a certain gaze
I don't like other possibilities


Century of Loneliness (track 5)

song: C.Y. Kong, Adrian Chan/lyrics: Lin Xi

The heart belongs to you
I borrowed it for dependence
Yet it became my heart's demon

To whom do you belong?
I happened to pass by
Yet I brought along success and downfall

All because along the way
There was a heavy downpour
It's proof that you did drop by
But when I close my eyes and open them again
I only see the desert
There aren't any camels around

Shadows are genuine, people are counterfeit
Nothing is absolute
A century ago, you were not you, I was not me

Melancholy is genuine, tears are counterfeit
There was no outcome from the start
A century from now, you will not exist, I will not exist

The wind belongs to the sky
I borrowed it for a breeze
Yet it fanned the flames of mankind

To whom does the sky belong?
I borrowed it for admiring
Yet I saw your profile


Butterfly (track 6)

song: Adrian Chan/lyrics: Lin Xi

Lips have yet to be parted
Already we hurt each other
Our date has yet to be set
But we don't look forward to it

The phone has not yet been hung up
Our love has already become putrid
I wish you were a butterfly
Arriving swiftly and departing swiftly

Give me a pair of hands
To depend on you
Give me a pair of eyes
To watch you leave
In the same way butterflies cannot traverse oceans
No one can bear to impute

Give me an instant
To adore you
Give me a lifetime
To send you off

Before the crack of dawn
We awake from our beautiful dream
We're both at ease

Memories have yet to become black and white
I've already distanced myself from the matter
I swear I never told anyone
Our relationship no longer exists

Tears have yet to be shed
I've already forgotten to lament
In the same way the loving care of a bowl of hot soup
Cannot be brought along everywhere


Evanescence (track 7)

song/lyrics: Yuan Wei Ren

All of a sudden I found a phrase
To describe what happened to me
It won't hurt either of us
But it's enough of an explanation

I've considered every possibility
I know very well that nothing can be done
It's still this way
We no longer have to rely upon
The days when we needed each other

Evanescent clouds
It seems that every cloud represents your regrets
Don't say goodbye
We have neither the right nor the obligation to see each other again

Evanescent clouds
Tears are no longer protective eaves in times of sadness
Don't say goodbye
Love is dangerous only because of our mutual devotion


After the Beep (track 8)

song: Zhang Ya Dong/lyrics: Lin Xi

Leave a message, leave a message
Please sigh after the tone
Leave a message, please leave a message
Please cry after I've finished speaking

I'm not here, I'm not there
Please leave your secrets after the beep
Please express your self-contentment to the handset after the beep
Please moan and groan to the air after the beep

I'm not here, where am I?
Where's my train of thought leading me?

Please discuss an interesting topic after the beep
Please share the burden of your emotional problems after the beep
Please don't mention a certain name after the beep

(The person you're looking for isn't here, she doesn't want to be found)
The person you're looking for is amusing herself
(I'm sorry, the person you're looking for doesn't want to say it's too late for everything)
The person you're looking for doesn't need brothers or sisters
(It doesn't matter if you're looking for me, it's already too late)
The person you're looking for is also searching
(Who wants to keep me company? I'm playing hide and seek)


Overthrow (track 9)

song: Liu Xiao Juan/lyrics: Kwan

I thought honesty was the answer to everything
Which is why I always found every excuse to be reasonable
My suspicions gradually faded

I thought memories retained all their colours
Which is why I never lost hope in our future
I believed you were my love

Suddenly, without even bothering to conceal, without thinking
You simply overthrow
You tell me that the past was only a farce

Just like that, without inquiring, without looking
As if you have nothing to do with it
It seems that I'm the only one who can still accept
This inexplicable tragedy

I thought memories retained all their colours
Which is why I never lost hope in our future
I could only let you leave


Spectacular (track 10)

song: Faye Wong, Zhang Ya Dong/lyrics: Faye Wong

Better prepare yourself
To rescue the decaying soul
You and I still have the chance
To confuse good and evil
To distinguish right from wrong

You long for [and] I look forward to
A beautiful future
Even if it's not perfect
It still must be spectacular
But how come one does, one says, one thinks, one wants more than this?

There's a different kind of brilliance in every moment

Love will always be awkward
Dreams will forever be embellishments
How many times have you and I persevered?
[We'll] compromise now and again
[And] refuse to regret


Guarding the Wheat Fields (track 11)

song: C.Y. Kong, Adrian Chan/lyrics: Lin Xi

The wind blows across fields of wheat
Fields must be harvested
Perhaps they could be left in my body*

You batter my heart
Like mining minerals from yellow sand
Perhaps it will make me fluoresce

Being with you is like stars and clouds
Rising and falling
No matter how much we get in each other's way
It's more beautiful than detrimental

Being with you is like dust and wind
Travelling together
Co-existing with heaven and earth
Unafraid of not being able to love again

I come with empty hands
[And] leave with a wave of my hand
I pass over mountains and oceans
Who is in the water?
We don't have to advance and retreat together

My arrival is embedded in my memory
I leave feeling reassured
It's not that I have nothing left**
When I'm deeply in love with someone
One day can last for an age

Water vapourises into clouds
The rain, abandoned by clouds
May have come from your sweat

My hand passes over your cheek
Kisses given to you by passers-by
May have been left in my palm



Postman (track 12)

song: Adrian Chan/lyrics: Lin Xi

Until the light snow drifts down
Descending into the faraway sea
It wasn't until my two feet could no longer move
Did I think of leaving
Until you say you will not return
Until I say "serves you right"
Once you're relieved of the burden of your affection
Perhaps you will believe in love

You are a thousand mounds of snow
I am a long street
I fear that when the sun rises
We'll go our separate ways
I watch the butterfly fail to traverse the heavens
Anyone has the right not to understand
(Last time: We can only blame the swiftness of time)

You are a letter
I am the postman
The last pair of feet
Trampling through the dust
I've been too busy delivering
Didn't have time to tear it open
[And expose] the perfect world inside

I misread the hotel sign*
I failed to recognize the street I wanted to scour
I want to keep the cold serving of take-out
How could I just toss it anywhere?

It doesn't have our guitar chords
But it does have the harmony of our ending
Yellow leaves fly far from our fate
In the end we can only say goodbye



Eyes On Me (track 13)

song: Adrian Chan/lyrics: Lin Xi

Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Oh, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you

*Darling, so there you are
Withthat look on your face
As if you never hurt
As if you never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I want to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming

*repeat
