At Least I Have You ...

I decided to take a break from watching Starlit. Now I have reached episode 17 - with lots of soapy scenes. Quite frankly, the on-screen chemistry between Terri Kwan and Jerry Yan - just can't take it anymore. Besides need to work on my master proposal huhuhu ... for which I encountered so many stumbling "mental" blocks.

While listening to William So's mesmerizing and soulful Starlit's theme song - Wo Zhi Shi Xiang Yao Xing Gu I suddenly felt the urge to find this particular single which I love so much years ago while still working for FTMS. I couldn't remember the singer, so much so the title of the song. However I knew it started with an S. My ex-colleague Eileen love to sing this song during our company social gatherings, much to my envy ( I soooooooooooooo want to sing this song) and frustation of my limited Mandarin.

Voila... after 3 nights of googling, I found the song and the singer. Here is the music video on YouTube, the lyrics and the translation. Please turn off the playlist on the left side menu to enjoy the video. Can't waittttttttttttttttttt to sing this song with a LIVE band one day! Aiyaaa... again got sidetracked!

Zhi Shao Hai You Ni lyrics by Sandy Lam

rang wo men xing ying bu li

Repeat *

wo pa shi jian tai man

ri ye dan xin shi qu ni

hen bu de yi ye zhi jian bai tou

yong bu fen li

Repeat *

zai na li

TRANSLATION

At Least I Still Have You by Sandy Lam

I'm afraid that there's not enough time
I wanna hold you
Until I feel that your wrinkles show signs of aging
Until I'm sure that you're real,
Until I've lost all my energy
I'm willing to, because of you
Even if I can't move, I still wanna hold you
Until I can feel your hair turning white like snow
Until our visions become blurry ; until we can't breathe
Let us stay together

If I can give up on the whole world
At least there's still you who's worth it for me to cherish
Having you here is a miracle
Perhaps I can forget about the whole world
But I'm not willing to lose touch with you
I still remember the mark in your palm

This was not easy for us
I'm afraid that time is moving too fast and
it's not enough for me to take a good look at you
I'm afraid that time is moving too slow and
I'm always worried that
I will lose you
I want to become old in one night and
I want us to be together forever
