How Could You Say –

I was watching 不死傳奇 (A Legend Never Dies) again. After a few artists, I got to watching the episode on 鄧麗君(Teresa Teng), and this particular song struck me…


This particular version was sung by 容祖兒 (Joey Yung). Although it’s not sung by the original, I think this version, she really put in a lot of emotion into this. Not to say however, that I don’t think it’s any better sung by the original singer…

I haven’t forgotten that you have forgotten all about me
我沒忘記 你忘記我
You even mentioned the wrong name
連名子你都說錯
That proves you have been lying to me all along
證明你一切都是在騙我
Let’s see what you’ll say today
看今天你怎麼說
You said that you’d come see me in two days
你說過兩天來看我
I have waited for more than a year
一等就是一年多
365 days haven’t gone by well
三百六十五個日子不好過
You never had a place for me in your heart
你心裡根本沒有我
Give me back my love
把我的愛情還給我

I haven’t forgotten that you have forgotten all about me
我沒忘記 你忘記我

You said that you’d come see me in two days

一等就是一年多
365 days haven’t gone by well
三百六十五個日子不好過
You never had a place for me in your heart

Give me back my love
把我的愛情還給我

I just saved this one for the last, because it was much better –and a much funnier clip too!

But more importantly, this song has finally told me, that I should just stop hiding from her, and rather than wait for a year to think things through, I can’t give her an excuse to think she has the right to sing this song. So I will confront her much sooner. Not too soon, but shorter than expected.
