Ji Ren
鄭秀文 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
谁更清清楚楚知道你事情
沉睡有还没有声 习惯喧闹或冷清
如在吻张不张开眼睛
回想一起归家的街每夜太静
念你家中灯火这晚暗或明
原谅我还未看清 犯错之后你究竟
会否关怀依旧才任性
原来歌声要有你在旁才动听
原来我梦中惊醒 流泪都自然反应
竟亦像你开始喜欢雨声
如果彼此的呼吸 空气内确认
还信真心天荒不老这事情
难道要蒙着眼睛 觅你孤寂那背影
发梢苍白之后才验证
原来靠着一双手 能认得须脚的感性
原来歌声要有你在旁才动听
原来我梦中惊醒 流泪都自然反应
竟亦像你开始喜欢雨声
嗯嗯
如果彼此的呼吸 空气内确认
还信真心天荒不老这事情
难道要蒙着眼睛 觅你孤寂那背影
发梢苍白之后才验证
承认我固执的个性
The lyrics to 鄭秀文's song "Ji Ren" convey a sense of introspection and self-reflection within a relationship. The song explores the idea of understanding and knowing each other deeply through subtle cues and gestures. It begins by questioning who truly knows the other person's thoughts and feelings, and whether they are accustomed to noise or silence. The singer recalls the quiet streets they walked together and reflects on the dim or bright lights in your home, finding forgiveness for not fully understanding the other person's actions and wondering if they still care despite making mistakes.
The lyrics reveal the power of physical touch and the ability to recognize each other's sensitivities through a pair of hands. The presence of the loved one is essential for the song to be beautiful. The singer also discovers that they now awaken from dreams and shed tears naturally, as if influenced by the loved one's preference for the sound of rain. The lyrics suggest that confirming true feelings and genuine love requires experiencing the aftermath of growing older and discovering the truth in someone's pale hair.
Overall, "Ji Ren" is a reflective song that delves into the intricacies of a relationship and the realization that understanding and acceptance are key to its longevity.
