The street light in front of the house is on
Looking out the empty long street
One by one, the figures walking closer and away
Listen to the footsteps carefully
Who is it, the most brisk melody

The floor lamp by the sofa is on
With a reclining body
A gloomy sea of ​​moonlight
Flood all the mess during the day
Hold a paper boat and slide towards the moon shadow in the heart of the wave

The lamp beside the vanity mirror is on
Before going to bed, wash away the dust
Vaguely see
Someone once combed your hair front of  the mirror
And the sudden joy emerging

The stars in the night sky are bright
Are you on your way back yet

Lost in the forest
Where no tree leads me to an exit
Passed one after another
They just stand there, pointing to the sky
But I can’t fly

Lost in the sea
Without a target or boundary
Sailing on the wind
Follow the sunset glow
No one can tell you the calendar of tomorrow

Lost in the crowds
seeing my shadow under the sun
And waves of walking by
rushing to the next direction
Only birds are singing day by day

Lost in my soul
So that God can occupy and tell me how
#lost

Deep in my soul
I have a prayer
Please send my prayer with the driving wind
To high in heaven

Deep in my soul
I have a song
Please send my song with the drifting bottle
To other side of ocean

Deep in my soul
I have a poem
Please send my poem with unending thoughts
To comfort him somewhere in my heart

For only a moment
I want to stay with you
Without thinking of tomorrow

For only a moment
I want to follow my heart
Without hearing others’ advice

For only a moment
I want to hug you
For so long

See you again
On that street
You didn’t change, a sense of joy and childish

See you again
By the ocean
You once said you liked to stay with the ocean
We walked under sunset and twilight sky.

See you again
In the dream
You just stand there without saying anything
I know what you want to say
but I can’t, and just let you go farther away.

When I see you smile
I see the glory of God in your eyes
You are his pride and love

When I see you smile
I see a pure heart full of joy
And you become the joy of mine

When I see you smile
I see the blooming flower and gentle moonlight
So I can sleep without tears

When I see you smile

With you I want to fly
Fly to the end of the sky
To see the ocean blue
To hear the roaring wind

With you i want to run
Run to the exit of the forest
To see the tree growing
To hear the leaf rustling

With you i want to stay
Stay at the dawn till dust
To see the beauty of the world
To hear the calling from the heaven
