Song for Myself
There’s something you want but can’t get, what can you do about it?
It’s hard to let go of things that should have been rid of, you’ve just been messing around with the past
Until you find out that time is a thief
It has already stolen all of your choices
Being in love is but as a fever
What follows right behind is yearning, a persistent cough that will never go away
Definitely, it’s unforgiveable, but you fail to stop
Your hatred overturning during the night
Empty inside but buzzing nonstop
Who shot you down inside your heart
The vows of the old flame are exactly a slap
Whenever you recall one, you’ll get slapped one at a time
And years gone by
You’re still unable to smell the scent of a woman nor can you touch the topic
Bygones are not bygones at all. You bet!
Lingering on the love memory lane can’t be regarded as a virtue
It’s too bad that falling in love is not like songwriting
It’ll never be unique, even if you set your heart on it
Let me ask you: have you seen yearning let anyone off the hook
Be it the old hand or the green one
I only know of people in a long-term relationship that are separated
I’ve never seen the other way around
Time, go easy on me
I’ll take whatever comes to me
I’ll pay back what I owe
Time, go gentle on me.
I won’t chase after what has long gone
All I want is figure it all out
Who can tell me what this is all about
I buried
and wiped out her love inside,
but her impact is still powerful
after all these years
Definitely, it’s unforgiveable, but you fail to stop
Your hatred overturning during the night
Empty inside but buzzing nonstop
Who shot you down inside your heart
The vows of the old flame are exactly a slap
Whenever you recall one, you’ll get slapped one at a time
And years gone by
You’re still unable to smell the scent of a woman nor can you touch the topic
And years gone by
You’re still unable to smell the scent of a woman nor can you touch the topic
There’s something you want but can’t get
What can you do about it?
There’s something you want but can’t get
There’s no sage in love.
It’s hard to let go of things that should have been rid of, you’ve just been messing around with the past

There’s something you want but can’t get
There’s no sage in love.
中文歌词
给自己的歌 (Jonathan's Song)
想得却不可得 你奈人生何
该舍的舍不得 只顾著跟往事瞎扯
等你发现时间是贼了
它早已偷光你的选择
爱恋不过是一场高烧
思念是紧跟著的好不了的咳
是不能原谅 却无法阻挡
恨意在夜里翻墙
是空空荡荡 却嗡嗡作响
谁在你心里放冷枪
旧爱的誓言像极了一个巴掌
每当你记起一句就挨一个耳光
然后好几年都闻不得
问不得女人香
往事并不如烟 是的
在爱里念旧也不算美德
可惜恋爱不像写歌
再认真也成不了风格
我问你见过思念放过谁呢
不管你是累犯或是从无前科
我认识的只有那合久的分了
没见过分久的合
岁月你别催
该来的我不推
该还的还 该给的我给
岁月你别催
走远的我不追
我不过是想弄清原委
谁能告诉我这是什么呢
她的爱在心里埋葬了
抹平了
几年了
仍有余威
是不能原谅 却无法阻挡
爱意在夜里翻墙
是空空荡荡 却嗡嗡作响
谁在你心里放冷枪
旧爱的誓言像极了一个巴掌
每当你记起一句就挨一个耳光
然后好几年都闻不得
问不得女人香
然后好几年都闻不得
问不得女人香
想得却不可得
你奈人生何
想得却不可得
情爱里无智者
该舍的舍不得 只顾著跟往事瞎扯
等你发现时间是贼了
它早已偷光你的选择
爱恋不过是一场高烧
思念是紧跟著的好不了的咳
是不能原谅 却无法阻挡
恨意在夜里翻墙
是空空荡荡 却嗡嗡作响
谁在你心里放冷枪
旧爱的誓言像极了一个巴掌
每当你记起一句就挨一个耳光
然后好几年都闻不得
问不得女人香
往事并不如烟 是的
在爱里念旧也不算美德
可惜恋爱不像写歌
再认真也成不了风格
我问你见过思念放过谁呢
不管你是累犯或是从无前科
我认识的只有那合久的分了
没见过分久的合
岁月你别催
该来的我不推
该还的还 该给的我给
岁月你别催
走远的我不追
我不过是想弄清原委
谁能告诉我这是什么呢
她的爱在心里埋葬了
抹平了
几年了
仍有余威
是不能原谅 却无法阻挡
爱意在夜里翻墙
是空空荡荡 却嗡嗡作响
谁在你心里放冷枪
旧爱的誓言像极了一个巴掌
每当你记起一句就挨一个耳光
然后好几年都闻不得
问不得女人香
然后好几年都闻不得
问不得女人香
想得却不可得
你奈人生何
想得却不可得
情爱里无智者
