A collection of Jam Hsiao songs that I like. He wrote these songs himself. They may not be the most popular songs but each speaks to me in unique ways.
A talented young man who can write his own songs and interpret others so well.
1. 寂寞还是你 Loneliness or You
This song can be found in the album 王妃 (wang fei) (affiliate link).
It sounds like a sad song about a break up but is actually a song of hope.
In the journey of life, aren’t most of us looking for happiness? But how can we be happy, especially when someone we care about has just left us? Do we let the sense of loneliness cripple us or do we remember the good moments and move on?
We move forward, albeit slowly, because the journey of life is a beautiful one.
Jam Hsiao wrote both the music and the lyrics.
往前走下去 细雨落满地 我还在迟疑 如何能够开心 思念堆成积 活在无助里 我怎么能继续让我醉倒不醒 内心的世界里 是寂寞还是你 寂寞围绕着我 无能向前进 内心的世界里 是寂寞还是你 若你住在我心 一起往前进 往前走下去 漫长无止境 你曾问过我 世上谁最美丽 问题满天星 从此不再提 我怎么能这样让我为爱失去 蔓延继续 慢慢向前进 最美最远的旅行
Meaning in English
Moving on in the rain I hesitated, how can I be happy again I am hopelessly buried in memories Let me sleep, I can't go on Is it loneliness or you Loneliness surrounds me, I can't see my way Is it loneliness or you If you are here, we can walk together It is an endless journey You once asked who is the most beautiful Question with no answer I can't let myself lost in love Slowly, I move forward, the most beautiful and farthest journey.
2. 给.爱人 Love
Jam Hsiao wrote the music and 陳鎮川 penned the lyrics. I’m envious of people who can pen lyrics so well. Fleeting feelings captured with only a few words. This song can be found in the album 王妃 (wang fei).
俯瞰城市的灯火我彷彿看到你招手 穿我爱的紫色微笑在等我 走过异乡灰扑扑的楼那陌生言语的问候 总想為你背诵让你也感受 选择不对你说默默努力实现你的梦 因為你总能懂我在笑什麼 飞过大片海洋我会找到你说的地方 努力寻找那道无瑕的阳光 或许我有点无聊常希望我们快点老 步履蹣跚的脚再也不逃跑 世界只会越来越渺小只剩下我们紧紧的依靠 我的故事傍晚聊到大清早 选择不对我说但我明瞭你对我的好 爱情安静却有强烈的讯号 我的短暂流浪你是支撑孤单的信仰 你总微笑随我的疯狂红著眼眶敷著我的伤 静静等在远方细数著星光 夜未央我就要等到那一道光 不对你说默默努力实现你的梦 因為只有你懂我在笑什麼 飞过大片海洋我正站在你说的地方 打包餘生的行囊等你停在我肩上 和我住在那道无瑕的阳光 陪著我
Meaning in English
Surveying the city lights, I imagine seeing you waving Wearing my favourite purple, smiling at me The foreign atmosphere and unfamiliar greetings I wish I could recite it for you Choosing to remain silent, I work hard to fulfil your dreams Because you know me Crossing oceans I'll find the place you mentioned Looking for that perfect ray of light I wish we could grow old faster So that our footsteps are slow and we don't run away The world shrinks until we are left with our embrace My stories last from evening to dawn Choosing to be silent, I know you are good to me Love is quiet but the signal is strong You are my pillar of faith in my short sojourn You smile at my madness, treating my wounds quietly waiting, counting the stars I'm waiting too for the dawn to break Choosing to remain silent, I work hard to fulfil your dreams Because you know me Crossing oceans I'm standing on the place you mentioned With my life luggage packed, waiting for you to rest on me Staying with me where the perfect ray is As my partner
3. 你 You
蕭敬騰 penned the lyrics and 陳奐仁 wrote the music.
我夢裡出現了一個你 很陌生卻熟悉 還有架鋼琴 一點旋律 它讓我不想清醒 怕根本這世界沒有你 我好像生了病 再也沒回到 那個夢裡 能不能再走回去 一個從未見過的你 一件從未發生過的事 一件不可能的事實 我要抓著你的手要對你哭 求你別再離開我 想從天上摘顆星給你 證明我想念你 還有一朵雲 你說好嗎 也許這樣會好吧 一個出現在夢的你 一直從不敢相信是你 一件不可能的事實 我願交換我的死去 用靈魂來陪你 感覺我不再害怕 卻發現我有些冰冷 每次聽的心跳聲 卻也跟著黑夜無聲 我終於能和你慢慢每一天 就算回不去這世界 決不會後悔 一個從未見過的你 卻讓我無止無境為你 一件不可能的事實 現在我不會再讓你離開我 我們終於在一起 一個出現在夢的你 一直從不敢相信是你 一件不可能的事實 來交換我的死去 用靈魂來陪你
4. 好想對你說 I long to say to you
我喜歡你 在我腦海裡 徘徊很久很久 卻從未離開過 好想要你走出夢 一起生活 好想對你說靠近我 babe 就讓我倒入你的懷 是否對你說相信我 babe 等待你看到未來 只有你出現那天 我們才會掉入愛的陷阱裡 我喜歡你 在我腦海裡 徘徊很久很久 卻從未離開過 好想要你走出夢 一起生活 好想對你說靠近我 babe 就讓我倒入你的懷 是否對你說相信我 babe 等待你看到未來 只有你出現那天 我們才會掉入愛 好想對你說靠近我 babe 就讓我倒入你的懷 是否對你說相信我 babe 等待你看到未來 只有你出現那天 我們才會掉入愛 好像你出現那天 那天
5. 一輩子存在 Exist a Lifetime
陈镇川 penned the lyrics and 萧敬腾 wrote the music. This is my ultimate favourite.
城市里 人影交替 有多少 机会交集 不期然相遇 意外的美丽 心动的默契 Oh 爱 是变得很想依赖 爱 是想要陪你醒来 Oh 爱 想像你在未来 一辈子存在 眼眶里 季节交替 记忆里 人来人去 我们都年轻 别害怕爱情 让真心证明 是关于期待 那一句对白 让我懂了爱 感觉终究无可替代 Oh 爱 是变得很想依赖 爱 是想要陪你醒来 Oh 爱 想像你在未来 一辈子存在 是想要陪你醒来 Oh 爱 想像你在未来 想做你 一辈子的爱
