Lyrics:

Forgotten
Lyrics by: Pun Yuen-leung
Music by: Lam Man-yee

Like a surging tide,time ripples and washes away
How many forgotten memories
Once reminisced,once unwilling to let go
All of the past,has vanished

Old dreams like a fading ballad,once so familiar
But so little is remembered
Past love,like a extinguished tide
Once full of joy and sorrow,tears and laughter,then turned to smoke and disappeared
Forgotten,yesterday erased by today
Whoever was important,all cannot be recalled

Once thought that a shining moment on earth
Could be held onto forever,never diminishing
Once thought that someone whose heart could be resonated with
Could be together every minute,every second
But didn't expect how much human affairs would fluctuate
Once truly cooperated,then instantly forgotten
Past love,like a extinguished tide
Once burst with joy and sorrow,tears and laughter,then turned to smoke and disappeared
Forgotten,yesterday erased by today
Whoever was important,all cannot be recalled

Old dreams like a fading ballad,once so familiar
But so little is remembered
Past love,like a extinguished tide
Once burst with joy and sorrow,tears and laughter,then turned to smoke and disappeared
Forgotten,perhaps once unwilling to erase
When fate fades,how can it be needed again
Forgotten,yesterday erased by today
Whoever was important,all cannot be recalled
