Fragile Woman (track 1)

song: Miyuki Nakajima/lyrics: Calvin Poon (Pan Yuan Liang) 

One gradually gets drunk as the night deepens
At this moment, so close
Thinking is like trepidation
Contradiction is even more profound

A heart which was once shattered
Allows you to gently lean close
So many condolences and questions
Stealthily rise up again

Love is hard to control
Yet I'm actually a woman who is very easily hurt
Don't come and go
Please treasure my heart

If you understand me I'd still rather be in love
This woman who's easily hurt
Don't wait
At this moment
Let us kiss
(Let us kiss like fire
'Till the end of our lives)

Having you in the long night is true even in drunkeness(?)
Allowed me to finally find trust
Don't care if everything is full of questions
Lovers are happy

I once feared this life
It is you who finally willed to lean close
I know that possessing destiny
Will rebuild my confidence

Heaven and Earth (track 3)

song: Zhang Yu/lyrics: Richard Lam (Lin Zhen Qiang)

When the breeze flies past in the long night
When the sky surrounds only you
In your sea of thoughts, I hope you'll think of me

When the deep night cannot be shattered
When the darkness cannot understand me
I can only pretend that you're still holding me tight

But are those who are separated really alone deep in the night?
Will you fall in love with someone else in your boredom?

To see you, to kiss you
It's then that I possess heaven and earth
I despise separation, whether long or short

Will wait for you, I'll wait for you
Even if we're separated by heaven and earth
I will save every kiss
And wait until I can kiss you again

When the breeze flies past in the long night
When the sky surrounds only me
Would you know who longs for you again?

When the deep night cannot be shattered
When the darkness cannot understand me
Would you know who wishes to have you at this moment?

I also hope that you will remember
To keep your heart until I kiss you again

Brink of Love and Pain (track 4)

song: Huang Zhuo Ying/lyrics: Calvin Poon (Pan Yuan Liang)

I pace about the deserted road and look back at it
You had kissed my face hundreds and thousands of times
I never thought that there would be a day
When, in the night rain, I have nowhere to go
Making me wait here alone from one o'clock to three o'clock

I'm not afraid of meeting you again
This is still my desire
I have my own feelings
You can't expect me to hide them
If you are no longer in love with me
Then why do you deceive me?
Making me wait and wait
I'm waiting for the day when I can regain your warmth

Love is like a rain shower, it seems to be over, but it's hard for it to end
The more you think about it, the more confused you become
I no longer want to attach myself to you
I have my dignity
I don't want to be hurt again

I can't help that my heart
Wants to distinguish it but cannot do so
It tells me not to wait
But this wish is unfulfilled
I'm forever at the brink of love and pain
How can I decide what choice to make?

Like Wind (track 7)

song: Zhang Yu/lyrics: Richard Lam (Lin Zhen Qiang)

There was one person
Who once made me realize
That living in this world
Is such a pleasure

His arms
Made me free of worries
He made me proud of myself

With that person
I once intimately conferred
Together with him
I also smilingly watched
The long night turn into dawn
Unfortunately he had to go
Leaving me to embrace my shadow in the long night

To come like wind, and go like wind
Perhaps the world's happenings are only a dream
To be on one's way, to be in the framework of time
Knowing each other is perhaps only brushing past that dream

To come like wind, and go like wind
Perhaps I shouldn't be so hurt
But I'm only human, not a dream
I'll always have some real laughter, and real pain

There was one person
Who once made me realize
That living in this world
Is such a pleasure
Unfortunately he had to go
Leaving me to embrace my shadow in the long night

Let me painfully confront emptiness alone
The warm breeze blowing past today
Is also a little cold

Scandalous (track 9)

song: Chen Xiao Xia/lyrics: Lin Xi

My eyes seem to be crying yet they seem not to be crying
I can't say what else I'm hoping for
Blowing smoke rings with you
Near your lips
I can't express my contentment
How can your tenderness be captured?
It comes closer and closer, yet it never makes contact
La...

The unfinished tea turned sour long ago
We have never been in love before, yet we are in love
We're going 'round in circles every day
How can this entanglement be considered short?
I wear your clothes every day
I can't detain you, yet I'm still warm

Hovering between sweetness and bitterness
I can't see through your scandalous eyes
You borrow love to fill one night
In the end, it still has to be returned
There's no need to desire too much

Hovering between proximity and separation
I can't see through your scandalous eyes
It seems to be deep yet it's still very shallow
The sky had turned blue-grey long ago
I want to part from you
Yet it's not late

Summer of Love (track 11)

song: S. Burton, H. Hoffner/lyrics: Thomas Chow (Zhou Li Mao)

I cannot withstand this shock
Loving at a high temperature exhausts me
Deep inside my heart flow beads of sweat
Because around me
I find my loved one confused
Peeking stealthily

I don't know how to explain it
When I'm with you I radiate energy

Sweet heat waves I can't conquer
Do you know, my love?

I'm dazed
Love is piping-hot

Igniting intimacy
Igniting the shock
Inextinguishable once ignited
Summer's flame of love
The sand is a stretch of gold
Together let's make footprints
A drunken heart
Love is swaying

This summer of love
Is piping-hot
I feel that perhaps at this moment
At the heart of the flame of love
You and I both radiate light
One hot wave after another
Making a visit into your heart, into my heart
Together we enter
The blazing net of love

At this moment, I once again reminisce how I got to know you
We open up to each other on first meeting, it's part of your charm
Once I searched in my dreams
Knowing you makes me happy
I'm dazed
As if I'm moving up and down
Only want you to treasure
My heart's imprint
To whom did I give my love?
Every day I follow your footsteps
Love's power cannot be blocked

I'm dazed
Love is piping-hot

On Time (track 12)

song: Chen Xiao Xia/lyrics: Lin Xi

I could, if you're willing; even if this feeling comes too late
Words which have never been spoken are written on my hands, flowing through my veins
Just once; there's no need for a second time
Let me listen at ease to your reminiscences of past times
Especially your moving stories; please let me know, what can be more beautiful?

Love and fate are never on time, if they really could be
Even if my hair turned white before I could be with you, it wouldn't be too late
Lovers don't like to be on time, perhaps it could be 
It would allow me for once to be completely happy

I ask you, if you're willing; to give me all your old photos
To make up for the loving images we never encountered in the past
The blank pages keep me company as I lose sleep
I could, if you're willing; let me appreciate naive youth
That smiling face after maturity; how it developed, how the eyes have changed
