電燈膽
鄧麗欣 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

假使不能公開妒忌 學習大方接受
同行時要殿後 誰冷落舊朋友
節日約我三位一體的慶祝
沿途明亮燈飾閃影著沉重
言談愈熾熱內在更冰凍

誰當初無心將兩方撮合
然後留低只得這寂寞人
仍是你們密友
呆望你們熱吻應該傷感還是快感

能回避嗎我怕了當那電燈膽
盯著你們來來回委曲中受難
一個我被撇低卻又很不慣
要走的一剎又折返

能承認嗎我故意當那電燈膽
他若你們完場時若替也不難
善良人埋藏著最壞的心眼
妄想一天你們會散會選我嗎

對換了你身份可應該滿足
情人還是知己都擁入懷抱
同情或眼淚讓別個得到

留低的原因一世的秘密
其實明知只得我是外人
仍是你們密友
呆望你們熱吻應該開心還是痛心

能回避嗎我怕了當那電燈膽
盯著你們來來回委曲中受難
一個我被撇低卻又很不慣
要走的一剎又折返

能承認嗎我故意當那電燈膽
他若你們完場時若替也不難
善良人埋藏著最壞的心眼
妄想一天你們會散會選我嗎

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to 鄧麗欣's song 電燈膽 express the feelings of jealousy and longing that arise when one is the odd one out in a close group of friends. The singer is caught in between her two close friends who are now in a romantic relationship. She struggles to come to terms with her own feelings, vacillating between acceptance and jealousy. The singer wishes she could be happy for her friends, but she finds it difficult to contain her feelings as she watches them kiss and be affectionate towards each other. She feels like she is being tortured by their affection as she struggles to hide her own emotional pain.


The song explores the complicated dynamics that can arise when close friends become romantically involved with each other. The singer is forced to navigate difficult emotions and find a way to relate to her friends in a new way. She wants to be supportive and understanding, but she also feels left out and lonely at times. The lyrics capture the complexities of human relationships and the ways in which our emotions can be both beautiful and painful.

Celebrating together as three on a holiday with brightly lit decorations, but feeling heavy-hearted along the way

要走的一剎又折返

妳等妳男朋友,咁我走先啦
好啦,早d休息
。。。。。
依,又話走先嘅?
啱啱走咗班車,我陪多妳一陣,等到佢黎我先走啦



善良人埋藏著最壞的心眼

我唔係祈望佢哋分手
就算嗌交
搵我訴下苦我都心甘情願


好靚嘅詞

聽過好多人唱這首歌,就算唱功好都未必感動到人,剛剛聽了周深唱這歌都覺得唔吸引。
最好聽都係Stephy,好有感染力,聽到人心都酸酸!❤❤❤

@leolam5344

Stephy把聲真係好特別🥰

@stevenlam9011

作曲填詞的李峻一先生,真係好厲害。寫第三者的題材已經不多,但係他竟然可以觀察到電燈胆這個題材,並細仔地描述其心情。非常難得的大作。

@ShunNitta

我覺得電燈膽真係鄧麗欣嘅代表作~
