Dreaming
Leslie Cheung Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
才是完全一夜
趋血色的暗夜 将你对着她的一切
必将向我映射
欲望是极难雕谢 如月满光影向人反射
且将你从前那些 漆黑里流泻
现在是你我专用夜
做我一半 不管
就算一半 不管
夜来越来越苦闷（夜来越来越苦闷）
你我的一半 如恋火般倾斜
连结成一夜
若要感觉痛快些 将你这个人一一转借
我这无依者
欲望是极难雕谢 如月满光影向人反射
且将你从前那些 漆黑里流泻
现在是你我专用夜
做我一半 不管
在旁是谁为谁呼唤（只爱一半）
就算一半 不管
夜来越来越苦闷（夜来越来越苦闷）
即将一半亦满足
延续你半夜半边梦
且将你从前那些 漆黑里流泻
现在是你我专用夜
做我一半 不管
在旁是谁为谁呼唤（只爱一半）
就算一半 不管
夜来越来越苦闷（夜来越来越苦闷）
做我一半 不管
在旁是谁为谁呼唤（只爱一半）
就算一半 不管
夜来越来越苦闷（夜来越来越苦闷）
Leslie Cheung's song "Dreaming in 2-3" talks about a love affair where he and his lover are only able to be together half the time. He sings about how when he holds his lover's half, it completes his own. The night becomes perfect when they are together, and their passion takes over. Cheung sings about desire and how it is difficult to control. He compares it to the reflection of the moonlight, which cannot be carved out. Cheung knows that their love is only half the time, but they still make the most of it when they are together.
The chorus repeats the idea of being satisfied with just half. Cheung sings about how the nights become more confusing and difficult the longer they are apart. In order to make up for the time that they are not together, he takes his lover's experiences and imagines them as his own. Cheung accepts that he is someone who does not have someone to rely on, but he knows that when he is with his lover, everything becomes perfect.
