"Red Bean" by Faye Wong

 


I have not yet carefully savoured
 The weather that the snowflakes cast 
As we're trembling together 
We will better understand what warmth is 

 I have not yet, holding hands with you
Walked through wild desert 
Perhaps from then on 
I will learn to appreciate eternity 

 Sometimes, sometimes 
I will believe that everything has an end 
Getting together and getting apart each has its time 
There's nothing that can last forever 

 But I, sometimes 
Will choose to linger and hold on 
Until the time when we have seen through all the sceneries 
Perhaps you will watch the everflowing stream with me 


 I have not yet cooked red bean for you 
Into an agonizing open wound 
And afterwards share the taste 
Then we will understand better the anguish of yearning 

 I have not yet carefully savoured 
The warmth of kissing while awake 
Maybe it is only when you're at my side 
That you'll pursue the lonely freedom

 Sometimes, sometimes 
I will believe that everything has an end 
Getting together and getting apart each has its time 
There's nothing that can last forever 

 But I, sometimes 
Will choose to linger and hold on 
Until the time when we have seen through all the sceneries 
Perhaps you will watch the everflowing stream with me
