i miss this song. it always reminds me of my mom and dad and how sweet they always look whenever they sing songs in the karaoke. my family are karaoke buffs. we used to sing quite a lot. even when i was little, we'd sing 天蜜蜜, 把心留住, 在雨中 (my dad's favorite) and of course, 月亮代表我的心. i suddenly missed my dad and since this is my favorite song that he and my mom used to sing, i just wanted to share the lyrics. i actually don't know what the song means, but the melody sings a sad tune for me... and kind of described the feeling of nostalgia i'm feeling right now...


十五的月亮，照在家乡，照在边关。
宁静的夜晚，你也思念，我也思念。
你守在婴儿的摇篮边，
我巡逻在祖国的边防线；
你在家乡耕耘着农田，
我在边疆站岗值班。
啊！丰收果里有你的甘甜，也有我的甘甜；
军功章呵，有我的一半，也有你的一半。

啊啊啊

十五的月亮，照在家乡，照在边关。
宁静的夜晚，你也思念，我也思念。
我守在婴儿的摇篮边，
你巡逻在祖国的边防线；
我在家乡耕耘着农田，
你在边疆站岗值班。
啊！丰收果里有你的甘甜，也有我的甘甜；
军功章呵，有我的一半，也有你的一半。

十五的月亮，照在家乡，照在边关。
宁静的夜晚，你也思念，我也思念。
我孝敬父母任劳任怨；
我肩负着全家的重任，
啊！祖国昌盛有你的贡献，也有我的贡献；
万家团圆，是你的心愿，也是我的心愿。
啊！啊！……
也是你的心愿

i uploaded the song in my multiply account. http://arlenethay.multiply.com/

after the long wait, i finally watched music and lyrics! i loved the song ever since i first heard it and was looking forward to seeing the movie. and it didn't disappoint. i love feel-good movies. i have to admit, hugh grant is really great in feel good movies. i still remember notting hill, two weeks notice... and although he didn't play the good guy, bridget jones diary was good too. i love "way back into love"! especially the demo version. can' t believe hugh can sing. i love the lyrics of the song so much that i just have to blog it! :D the ones in red are my favorite lines. :D

Way back into love (Music and Lyrics)

I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need em again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere
I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not just somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration, Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
