可惜不是你
尚雯婕 Lyrics

These lyrics are from the song "可惜不是你" (Unfortunately, It's Not You) by 尚雯婕 (Shang Wenjie). The song tells the story of a person who realizes the familiarity and similarity between their current moment and a past relationship. They reflect on how their tone of speech resembles that of their previous partner and how their love becomes evidence of their past relationship. Despite almost deceiving themselves and their partner, they understand that love and being loved are not always in equal measure. They acknowledge that being treated well is a stroke of luck but find it difficult to completely give themselves up. The singer says they have tried to change for the person they are with but cannot erase the lingering presence of their past love. They had believed that being by their side meant forever, as if it were still yesterday, but now they acknowledge that yesterday has become distant. However, when they close their eyes, they can still see the memories of their past love. The lyrics express regret that it is not the person they were with until the end, and they thank them for holding their hand and experiencing their gentleness during that period of time. They express a desire to have the projection of starlight and wish for their partner's presence in their current life.
