Heart Wall

作词：姚若龙 作曲：林俊杰

Alone, gazing at the ocean and the sky

The gray in my heart fades a little

Dolphins soar past my eyes

I see the sunniest smile

Cherish good times, because they're limited

I'm learning not to worry too far ahead

Not planning too much lets me dare to adventure

Live each day richly, see each day happily

Wooh~

First time seeing cloudy skies veil your side face

What stories I want to know about

I feel I understand your uniqueness

Your heart has a wall

But I discovered a window

Occasionally letting through a warm, gentle light

Even if you have a wall

My love will climb the windowsill and bloom

Open the window, you'll see sorrow melt away

I'm learning not to worry too far ahead

Not planning too much lets me dare to adventure

Live each day richly, see each day happily

Wooh∼

First time seeing cloudy skies veil your side face

What stories I want to know about

I feel I understand your uniqueness

Your heart has a wall

But I discovered a window

Occasionally letting through a warm, gentle light

Even if you have a wall

My love will climb the windowsill and bloom

Open the window, you'll see sorrow melt away

Your heart has a wall

But I discovered a window

Occasionally letting through a warm, gentle light

Even if you have a wall

My love will climb the windowsill and bloom

Open the window, you'll see sorrow melt away

You'll smell the fragrance of happy, sunny skies

心墙

作词：姚若龙 作曲：林俊杰

一个人 眺望碧海和蓝天

在心里面那抹灰就淡一些

海豚从眼前飞越

我看见了最阳光的笑脸

好时光都该被宝贝 因为有限

我学着不去担心得太远

不计划太多反而能勇敢冒险

丰富地过每一天 快乐地看每一天

Wooh~

第一次遇见阴天遮住你侧脸

有什么故事好想了解

我感觉我懂你的特别

你的心有一道墙

但我发现一扇窗

偶尔透出一丝暖暖的微光

就算你有一道墙

我的爱会攀上窗台盛放

打开窗你会看到 悲伤融化

我学着不去担心得太远

不计划太多反而能勇敢冒险

丰富地过每一天 快乐地看每一天

Wooh∼

第一次遇见阴天遮住你侧脸

有什么故事好想了解

我感觉我懂你的特别

你的心有一道墙

但我发现一扇窗

偶尔透出一丝暖暖的微光

就算你有一道墙

我的爱会攀上窗台盛放

打开窗你会看到 悲伤融化

你的心有一道墙

但我发现一扇窗

偶尔透出一丝暖暖的微光

就算你有一道墙

我的爱会攀上窗台盛放

打开窗你会看到 悲伤融化

你会闻到幸福晴朗的芬芳
