2081 - Kingsley Mak

作曲：Kingsley Mak

Who am I in eighty years' time

I asked myself when I was a baby

Who loved to cry

I was born with an ambitious mind

I was chasing the spotlight

But I'm running out of time

I met you on my way

And I tried to get on the train

To be by your side

That wasn't a lie

I loved you both the same

My passion and my darling

But if I had to choose one dream

I wouldn't choose yours but mine

I keep love between the lines

Stuck in talking stage for the rest of my life

I only keep rushing for deadlines

Erasing you from the chapters of my life

The only thing we learn from the past

Is that we're never grateful for what we've had

So please don't let me go

May a time machine fix my regrets

But it can never bring things right back

Who am I in sixty years' time

I see myself living on my own

In a big white mansion

I ain't ready to leave the world behind

Am I scared of seeing loved ones die

More than dying alone tonight

I hear birds singing

My birthday song but no one's celebrating

The sunlight comes in

Waking up in a double bed

I'm good on my own

But if I choose to live with you

That is what love's about

Having you come around

Passion makes me nervous

If I'm being honest

Love does the same

Working is my happy hour

What about the late-night hours

When I've done so much I'm still in vain

I shouldn't try too hard

Cause things don't work that way

I keep love between the lines

Stuck in talking stage for the rest of my life

I only keep rushing for deadlines

Erasing you from the chapters of my life

The only thing we learn from the past

Is that we're never grateful for what we've had

So please don't ever grow

Can I see you grow old

May a time machine fix my regrets

But it can never bring things right back

Eighteen years old I should have let it go

Eighty years old I can only let go

Eighteen years old not scared to be alone

Eighty years old I may well die alone

Eighteen years old I run away from home

Eighty years old no one's waiting at home

Eighteen years old I wanna be well-known

Eighty years old what is life I don't know

Eighteen years old I still have time to go

Eighty years old the past is long ago

Eighteen years old depression I won't show

Eighty years old happiness who to show

Eighteen years old my heart's as cold as stone

Eighty years old my soul has turned to stone

Eighteen years old I should have loved you more

Eighty years old I should have
