In The Park

April 19, 2014. Composed within an hour. 

Sometimes I think I am a little strange
For leaving some things open-ended 
But I think I am just a little afraid 
to make the same mistakes all over again

Sometimes I wish the situation could be different                                            
But oh how could we possibly know how to make a difference
All I can do is just to keep this feeling for as long as I can
and I secretly wish you can do the same

But what if we take that little step 
and don't think about what is coming next 
Will it be bad? Or will it just be great?
And what if we don't take that little step
just keep hoping things to be the same
Will it be bad? Or will it just be ok?

All I Wanna Say

You say you want to go away
你說你想要離開
But everyone tells you to stay
但每個人都叫你留下
At the same time they say you were really brave
同時他們說你很勇敢
For abandoning everything you had
拋下你所有的一切

What I wonder is if there is a way
我懷疑的是如果有一條路
We absolutely need to obey
是我們絕對需要服從的
Or can we just follow what our souls crave
或者我們可以只跟隨著我們靈魂所渴望的
And don't worry 'bout what other people say
不去擔心其他人怎麼說

What I wanna say is the things they care we cannot bare
我想說的是他們在乎的事情我們無法忍受
Take a deep breathe, only you know which way to take
深呼吸，只有你知道該選哪條路
Oh life isn't just about feeling safe
喔生活不應該只是感覺安全就好
All I wanna say is you have the right to live your way
我想說的是你有權利選擇你想要怎麼生活
Take a deep breathe, you know everything will be okay
深呼吸，你知道一切都會是ok的
Oh life is the most wonderful thing we have
喔人生是我們擁有最美妙的事情

All I Wanna Say

Lyrics/music by Joanne Chen

When the sun is setting
My heart is beating
Like a melody singing
This is my feeling

When you are looking
The whole world stops spinning
I can see the river's reflection in your eyes shining

Can't you say one more time you miss me
Can't you see I have already melted
Even though it may not be necessary
'Cause your eyes kind of already told me everything
