Lyrics:
Lyrics by: Poon Wai Yuen Composer: G Frey / D Henley
Even if we meet
Even if we gather for dozens of days
But after gathering,we part,leaving only sadness
When I'm not there in the quiet night
You'll realize the warmth you longed for
And before facing the consequences
Many changes have occurred
Why must we meet secretly again.
You already said we were over
Why do you always regret and complain.
Why do you never plan ahead.
Leading to endless sorrow of parting
Why do you make weak me suffer in love.
Even if we meet
A thousand days would be too short
Love cannot last forever,we should break free from the abyss
Since we're going to separate anyway
My heart cannot be warmed
I'd rather you cruelly
Tear everything apart with resolve
Why do you make me go in circles again.
Instead of resolutely ending it
You should also understand that people get tired
Who wants a moment's meeting.
Even if we love for a few more years starting today,it's too short
Even if we meet
If I can't give love and warmth
I'd rather you were far away,ending this bitter love
I wish we had never met
I don't want you to deceive yourself
I've refused to meet you entirely for your sake
(Refused to meet you for your sake)
If we're to break up again
It's still painful not to meet
