My net friend Stephen Tsai writes this lyric, for those separated due to war. Facing the aggressiveness of some countries, which stir up wars everywhere, I am deeply touched by the lyrics and compose this song for it.

It's about 2 young lovers being separated in 2 places in war. Spending for ages on waiting for the war to end. Finally they meet again when they are old.

This song was on air with my radio interview concerning original music on Hong Kong Metro Broadcast FM99.7 on 3/1/04.

Radio Interview

Verse 1:
In fact we are not far away, but it is too difficult to see you.
Who take our luck away?
How many lonely nights,
With loneliness stuffed my heart,
I cannot sleep in every lonely night.
I can only see you in old photos, or in dreams.
Who make us separated?
Each autumn is missing you far away.
Apart from God, who can share my thoughts?

Chorus 1:
@Somebody stir up this war, parting us in 2 places.
My sadness, your difficulty, all buried in the fires of war.
Man made border, parting us in 2 places.
My sadness, your anger, everything buried under the sea of politics.@

Verse 2:
Even the Cowboy and the Wega can meet in 7th July.
When can I meet you again?
Hoping that one day the environment changes,
Then I can stay beside you.
After ages, I nearly forget your face, but I still remember our promise.
The only tiny little hope in my whole life,
Is to hold your hand again.

Repeat @

Chorus 2:
Somebody stir up this war, parting us in 2 places.
Our loves never destroy by guns.
Man made border can never part our love.
Missing you every night and seeing you in my dreams.

Coda:
Now standing in front of me, is the one who I have been missing for ages.
However, I can hardly identify your face.
The wrinkles on your face sculptured by time tell me all the things that you miss me.
Looking at your eyes, I cannot say anything.
Let my tears to tell you about how I miss you.
