這是我前幾個禮拜作的歌，是寫給已經離開這世界的大家。

這次音質好很多！

This is a song I wrote a few weeks ago as a tribute to everyone who's left the world.

The quality's definitely better this time!

Inter-Soul Waltz

靈魂間的華爾滋

Composition, lyrics, arrangement, and singing by Michelle Ning Lo

羅寗　作曲、作詞、編曲和演唱

She lies there
So small, tender
I touch her face
Warmth is gone and coldness takes its place
I call her name, I call her name, yet
She remains just lying there with that calm face

Oh, the irony
How peaceful the dead can seem
But it's fair, they have suffered already
It is time for the people who care (to take over) the agony
We do so willingly
Although painful we soak in the grief
Because we know that it would be
More of a torture if all (we felt was) nothing

I move on
As if she
Was never gone
But she is gone and sadness takes its toll
I call her out, I call her, although
There is no way she would hear my voice, I know so

Oh, the ones we love
Occupy a space in our souls
When they're gone, they're replaced with a hole
A hole that we would try to fill in (with other people), but withhold
We will hesitate
There are too many things to let go
It's risky, however we know
We'd rather constantly fall (through the hole than have nothing) at all

Oh the melody
Sung between the living and the dead
Carries thoughts and emotions not said
Things so secret and private, only (in a wordless song can they) be kept
Our emptiness
Is the proof that they really existed
Therefore, clinging onto nothingness,
We do whatever we can (to save every piece of) what's left

I can see her still
I can see her as if she were real
I want her to, I want her to know
(That this is) our inter-soul waltz

她躺在那裡 
好小　好柔弱 
我碰她的臉 
溫度沒了被冰冷取代 
我叫她的名子　我叫她的名子　但是 
她依舊躺在那裡　一臉平淡 

好諷刺呀 
死者可以這樣安寧 
但這樣才公平　他們已經受過苦了 
是時候讓關心的人來接續疼痛 
我們甘願地承受 
雖然痛苦但我們吸收著哀悼之傷 
因為我們知道 
什麼都感覺不到是更殘忍的虐待 

我繼續生活 
好像她 
沒有走一樣 
但是她走了而傷感發作 
我叫她出來　我叫她　雖然 
她不可能聽到我的聲音　我知道 

我們愛的人呀 
在我們的靈魂裡占據一個空間 
他們走了則被一個洞取代 
我們會想把這個洞用別的人來填平　但卻又不敢 
我們會遲疑 
有太多東西要放棄掉 
很危險但我們知道 
我們寧願一直掉進洞裡也不要什麼都沒有 

那旋律呀 
在活人與死人之間被傳唱 
攜帶著沒被說出的思念和感情 
秘密和隱私只能在無字的歌曲裡被保留 
我們的空虛 
是他們真的存在過的證據 
緊抓著虛無 
我們費盡所能收藏著剩餘的一切 

我還能看得到她 
我能看到她像她是真的一樣 
我想讓她　我想讓她知道 
這是我們靈魂間的華爾滋
