Waiting for someone

Lyricist: Xu Shizhen/Wu Huifu - Composer: Xu Yong

Is there a star in the sky watching over me?

It's just that I haven't noticed

Is there a shoulder in the crowd willing to

Shield me from the coldest winter?

Who will be gentle and firm,

Bringing the future to meet me?

Everyone has a

Reserved empty space in their heart

Waiting for someone to appear

Embracing my world

Standing before love,

All lonely defenses

Collapse in an instant

Waiting for someone to fall deeply

On the left side of my chest

Overnight,

Let the panic, the heartache, the heartbreak

All become memories

Who will be gentle and firm,

Bringing the future to meet me?

Everyone has a

Reserved empty space in their heart

Waiting for someone to appear

Embracing my world

Standing before love,

All lonely defenses

Collapse in an instant

Waiting for someone to fall deeply

On the left side of my chest

Overnight,

Let the panic, the heartache, the heartbreak

Become memories

Let the wind dry the raindrops on my face

Even if I stumble and don't understand the depth of love,

I must continue to search for that absolute

Waiting for someone to become

The forever in my life

Happiness is so circuitous,

Why haven't I noticed

Love is right by my side

Waiting for someone to bring back

The blue sky after the rain

From now on,

Every day, every month, every year,

I will be willing

Happiness is so circuitous,

Why haven't I noticed

Love is right by my side

Waiting for someone to bring back

The blue sky after the rain

From now on,

Every day, every month, every year,

I will be willing

等一个人

作词：徐世珍/吴辉福 作曲：许勇

天空中是否有颗星星守护我

只是我没有发觉

人群中是否有个肩膀愿为我

挡住最寒冷的冬天

谁会温柔而坚决

带着未来和我遇见

每个人心里都有一个

保留着的空位

等一个人出现

拥抱着我的世界

站在爱的面前

所有寂寞防备

一瞬间崩溃

等一个人深陷

在我胸口左边

一夜之间

让心慌 让心痛 让心碎

都成为纪念

谁会温柔而坚决

带着未来和我遇见

每个人心里都有一个

保留着的空位

等一个人出现

拥抱着我的世界

站在爱的面前

所有寂寞防备

一瞬间崩溃

等一个人深陷

在我胸口左边

一夜之间

让心慌 让心痛 让心碎

成为纪念

让风吹干我脸上的雨点

就算跌跌撞撞不懂爱的深浅

也要继续寻找那一份绝对

等一个人成为

我生命中的永远

幸福多么迂回

为何没有发现

爱就在身边

等一个人带回

大雨后的蓝天

从今之后

每一天 每一月 每一年

都心甘情愿

幸福多么迂回

为何没有发现

爱就在身边

等一个人带回

大雨后的蓝天

从今之后

每一天 每一月 每一年

都心甘情愿
