Back to One album track 5: Red Roses, White Mums
She is beyond the title, in my opinion, Best Living Playwright in Chinese theatre, she is my savior. Her words. Her wisdom beneath the (mostly) dirty jokes. Her friendship. This one is for her, and all the capable girls in my life. (Oh there are soooo many you have no idea…)
Red Roses, White Mums
(Chet Lam)
Your stories are requiems burning away in the air
Your sentiment is love poems castigating living
Your mood is sketches mocking life
Your words are stories looking for answers
When there’s much love, there would be as much sighing
When there’s much desire, there would be as much sorrow
When there’s much stubbornness, there would be as much helplessness
When there’s much hate, there would be as much love
My beloved black box poet
Thank you for everything you gave me
I could hide away in your humor
And escape from the chaotic world for a while
Those who understand a lot
Are often not understood by many
Under the blade of your sharp humor
No one can escape
There’s no past
There’s no tomorrow
Life’s rainbow only exists right now
Fragile girl
Cannot let go of the thorns of red roses
Hiding the love of white mums

《思源》專輯第五首:紅玫瑰白菊花
靈感來自此女黃詠詩的招牌獨角戲《破地獄與白菊花》。我的文字妻,慾海奇葩務實性感女編劇,冇你我死得。給所有強悍脆弱聰明固執的女子,我身邊實在有太多,請自己對號入座。
這首歌我演奏了中阮;鋼琴余朗晴, drums Nate Wong , bass 陳兆基 , mixed by Mas
紅玫瑰白菊花
(曲詞:林一峰)
你的故事是一首首
灰飛煙滅的輓歌
你的情感是一篇篇
鞭韃生活的情詩
你的情緒是一幅幅
嘲笑生命的素描
你的文字是一個個
尋找答案的故事
有多少愛 就有多少感慨
有多少慾望 就有多少悲哀
有多少執著 就有多少無奈
有多少恨 就有多少愛
我親愛的黑盒詩人
謝謝你給我的一切
在你刀光劍影的幽默裏
暫時隔絕世界的紛擾
明白太多的人都好孤獨
瞭解你的人都太少
但被你手起筆下勾起的愛恨
天地再大也無處可逃
有多少愛 就有多少感慨
有多少慾望 就有多少悲哀
有多少執著 就有多少無奈
有多少恨 就有多少愛
沒有過去 沒有未來
生命的彩虹 只有現在
脆弱的女孩
捨不得紅玫瑰的刺
隱藏着白菊花的愛
