张柏芝 Cecilia Cheung - 一个人背两人的债 The Lion Roars 河东狮吼

2009-01-26T23:56:00.000-08:00

Lyric: Cecilia Cheung - I myself shoulder two persons' debts
Soundtrack of "The Lion Roars"
Lyric:

**Don't behave like a kid
Helpless written on your whole face
Looking for someone to rely but failed
Now, the time comes
I have to leave
You, stand up firmly

Don't blame yourself
Why not be frank before
Why you hurt the one who was with you and loved you
You are the most spoiled in my life
You are the most beloved in my life
Even though I can not take care of your future any more
I still want to clarify everything before leaving

I myself shoulder two persons' debts
I don't mind how many bitters ahead
I would jump into the "forgetting love" sea just for you
Even though I will be tortured to death
** Repeat

Don't be upset
How many loves can start over again?
This is the God's arrangement
Now, time comes
How can we change it?

Don't be too hopeful
Be frank to yourself
Be nicer to the loved one besides you
Don't hurt the one who loves you again
--------------------
Lyrics in Chinese Pinyin:
*Bie Xiang Ge Xiao Hai
Dai Zhe Yi Lian De Wu Nai
Zhao Bu Dao Yi Lai
Shi Dao Ru Jin Wo Yao Li Kai
Hao Hao Zhan Qi Lai
Bu Yao Zai Ze Guai
Wei Shen Me Cong Qian Bu Tan Bai
Rang Ni Shen Bian Ai Ni De Ren Shou Shang Hai
Ni Shi Wo Yi Sheng De Zui Huai
Ye Shi Wo Yi Sheng De Zui Ai
Bu Neng Zai Zhao Gu Ni De Wei Lai
Wo Ye Yao Zou De Ming Ming Bai Bai
Yi Ge Ren Bei Liang Ren De Zhai
Shou Duo Shao Ku Wo Ye Neng Ai
Wei Ni Tiao Jin Wang Qing Ku Hai
Si Qu Zai Huo Lai *(Repeat 2 times)
-----------------------
河东狮吼主题曲

别像个小孩
带着一脸的无奈
找不到依赖
事到如今
我要离开
好好站起来
不要再责怪
为什么从前不坦白
让你身边爱你的人受伤害
你是我一生的最环
也是我一生的最爱
不能再照顾你的未来
我也要走个明明白白
一个人背两人的债
受多少苦我也能挨
为你跳进忘情苦海
死去再活来
何必太悲哀
多少爱可以重来
上天的安排
事到如今怎样去改
不要太期待
对自己坦白
对身边的人多关怀
不要再让爱你的人受伤害
