Who whispers my name in dreams (谁在梦里轻唤我的名)
Lyrics by:Jovan-T
The flickering lamp shatters the moon on the windowpane
Bamboo shadows sweep across the old paper's stain
Cold tea smoke rises from the porcelain in vain
Fingertips trace the half-written words you left behind
That year peach blossoms fell like snow on my shoulder
You snapped a twig and smiled spring's deep as the sea
Now the empty garden locks the years in silence
The wind through the hallway still recalls your hair's fragrance
Ivy climbs the roots of my heart's wall
An inch of longing an inch deep it crawls
Dew soaks my clothes in the night's cold thrall
Who whispers my name in dreams so small
Time boils the rain but can't dissolve this love
In the years' echo I wait for one to return
The bronze mirror gathers dust my face worn thin
Empty sleeves hang low tears fall unseen
Once we trimmed the candle and talked by the window
Now a lone cup faces the night's endless glow
I remember how your brow rose when you tuned the strings
Saying the song held days as long as the wind
Now the strings break no one plays the rest
The lingering sound is all the past's behest
Ivy climbs the roots of my heart's wall
An inch of longing an inch deep it crawls
Dew soaks my clothes in the night's cold thrall
Who whispers my name in dreams so small
Time boils the rain but can't dissolve this love
In the years' echo I wait for one to return
When geese return the moon fills the western tower
A letter can't carry half a word of power
Vines have knotted around my heart's core
A knot of this life that can't be untied anymore
Ivy climbs the roots of my heart's wall
An inch of longing an inch deep it crawls
Dew soaks my clothes in the night's cold thrall
Who whispers my name in dreams so small
Time boils the rain but can't dissolve this love
In the years' echo I wait for one to return
