A silent winter with 有谁共鸣

"A lonely walk through the cold
Wishing someone was here for me to hold

The leaves falling off the tree
Believing now that it is free

I put on my earphones and hear some familiar sound
But the songs that play bring tears to the ground"

I feel like this all the time. Cold and lonely. Sometimes feeling carefree but end of the day I just miss home. Nothing beats being at home. Really.

Many times I find myself singing this very familiar song. A cantonese song by Leslie Cheung and surely one of my favourite.

The lyrics are just so meaningful and it just fits my life right now. Take a read or if you know how to sing it, go ahead and sing it because that is what I do as I take those lonely steps alone back to the apartment - dark, lonely and with noone to talk to except the sky which at times gets filled with stars. Of course there are times when the stars leave me to be alone only with the winter cold and the drizzling rain.

I am sure the below video will seem familiar. Leslie won some awards in 1986/87 and that was when I was still a young boy with no worries and truly spoilt- even till now.

抬头望星空一片静
我独行夜雨渐停
无言是此刻的冷静
笑问谁肝胆照应

风急风也清告知变幻是无定
未明是我苦笑却未停
不信命只信双手去苦拼
矛盾是无力去暂停
可会知我心里困倦满腔
夜阑静问有谁共鸣

从前是天真不冷静
爱自由或会忘形
明白是得失总有定
去或留轻松对应

孤单中颤抖可知我实在难受
问谁愿意失去了自由
想退后心里知足我拥有
前去亦全力去寻求
风也清晚空中我问句星
夜阑静问有谁共鸣

孤单中颤抖可知我实在难受
问谁愿意失去了自由
想退后心里知足我拥有
前去亦全力去寻求

风也清晚空中我问句星
夜阑静问有谁共鸣

风也清晚空中我问句星
夜阑静问有谁共鸣
