for you

I burst into tears when I came back home
and then I received your message which was late for me
you said you were busy
and certainly I understood
I understood you were busy and had no time to come out
I understood you put your work first and
always be responsible for it
I understood you,indeed
Of course I had no reason to ask you to come out with me
but I just could not help crying
for what?
for you

To make sure I coule meet you at night to have a drink
I had to lie to my mom that I had a party at night
so I could come back late
I didn't want to lie to her, I am not a liar
but for what?
for you

In my mom's eyes,I should go out because I had a party
so I had to leave home
even though I hadn't got your message and
I didn't even know when you would call me in your spare time
I had to wait
I had to wait outside
I had to wait for you by walking around lonely
for what?
for you

Where should I go?
I walked,walked and walked with no purpose
I walked to Zhongshan Park and
saw many people dancing there
I walked to somewhere else and
saw many young people playing,talking and laughing together
they were very happy
at least they were together with each other
but what was I doing?
where should I go?
I was so silly, I said to myself
how stupid,how foolish I was
but for what?
for you

But there was still no message, from you
no message,no message
I kept waiting
kept walking
I kept walking and waiting in the darkness, alone
the night was so dark that it scared me
but I still walking and waiting
for what?
for you

At last, I despaired, completely
until half past ten, I went back home with my despair
I burst into tears when I hid into my bedroom
then your message came...
I knew you couldn't go away from your work
I understood
I understood you ,indeed
but why couldn't I help crying?
for what?
for you

Just because I did want to see you so much
but I could not see you
Just because I was afraid I could not see you any more
as the days went on and the day you left was coming soon
Just because
I miss you, indeed
and I did want to see you once more
for what?
for you

I know I am so silly
I am a fool
but for what?
just for you...
