"Nursery Rhyme" by Fish Leong

兒歌 by 梁静茹

A small paper boat swimming across the river, suddenly the rain starts
We use our small hands to cover the boat from the raindrops
A paper airplane flies into the fire of the evening sun
You look towards it


I'm avoiding the Summer streets, are you still waiting on me?
Eating ice cream in the sun, sweat dripping on your cheeks
I tiptoe by you and say grow up a bit
Grow up to protect me, okay?


That far far place is ripped open, reflecting the light of dreams
I'm brave to see what tomorrow looks like, no matter what the future


The story without an outcome is the most beautiful, yet not easy for people to forget
It seems life's beauty is left in one brilliant day


You used to ride a wooden horse, I take the train
Our hearts continue to hold that first nursery rhyme
You accidentally remember me humming warmly
And that one moment I was yours


That far far place is ripped open, reflecting the light of dreams
I'm brave to see what tomorrow looks like, no matter what the future


The story without an outcome is the most beautiful, yet not easy for people to forget
It seems life's beauty is left in one brilliant day

"Looking for Someone" by Fish Leong

"找个人" by 梁静茹

Looking for someone to love me
I'm afraid to be lonely
Just sit until I fall asleep
I feel very cold
Feel very tired

Looking for someone to love me
Let me be strong forever
I stop here
Stop running
Have no feelings

Walking in the city in a hurry
Days of struggling
I feel like I don't belong here
I just belong to you, belong to each other

Looking for someone to love me
Let me be strong forever
I stop here
Stop running
Have no feelings

Walking in the city in a hurry
Days of struggling
I feel like I don't belong here
I just belong to you, belong to each other

I want to feel completely
That you are really here
I have everything, if I lose you I'll only feel weak

Looking for someone to love me
Looking for someone to love me
Looking for someone to love me
Looking for someone to love me

"Give Myself a Future" by Fish Leong

"给未来的自己" by 梁静茹

Standing on a windy rooftop, looking as far as the eye can see
This is a lonely city
The sky joins with the top of tall buildings
Who searches open lands for freedom?

Sunshine covers all, at this moment I am calm
Isolated from the indifferent
The flow of an endless stream of people wandering the street
Who can hear the lonely?

Looking for a sympathetic person, looking for a soulmate
In this universe I am unique and no one can replace me

No matter how,
How metropolis hurts
And hurts again, at least I am strong, I am magnanimous

Night is enveloped by a glittery sea
How many people, how many kinds of frustration,
in the light of stars forget yesterday's hurt?
Still to awake to expectations

I won't give up love's courage, I won't doubt I can be sincere
I want to hold onto the most beautiful dream of having a future for myself

Day by day by day, adhering to the belief
I will remember my appearance of today

There is a sympathetic person, there is a soulmate
Abandoning the past, I want to go search for a future for myself

No matter how,
How metropolis hurts
And hurts again, at least I am strong, I am magnanimous

Your future
Can understand my madness
