Randy Lai - vice-president of McDonald's Restaurants (Hong Kong) Finding the essence of service
John Cremer
http://www.classifiedpost.com/career-centre/leadership-lessons/working-women/finding-essence-service
Moving from a high-powered marketing role to cleaning tables and mopping floors might seem a backward step to most people, but to Randy Lai, it seemed like a smart move. Having worked her way up to the rank of vice-president of McDonald's Restaurants (Hong Kong), she was aware that, compared with other senior colleagues, her resume lacked a crucial element: frontline operational experience.

Billionaires’ Top 10 List for Success | The Big Picture
The Wealth Report: Here is the top 10 list culled from billionaires:
1. Figure out what you’re so passionate about that you’d be happy doing it for 10 years, even if you never made any money from it. That’s what you should be doing
2. Always be true to yourself
3. Figure out what your values are and live by them, in business and in life.http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2011/11/billionaires-top-10-list-for-success/?utm_source=feedburner
4. Rather than focus on work-life separation, focus on work-life integration.
5. Don’t network. Focus on building real relationships and friendships where the relationship itself is its own reward, instead of trying to get something out of the relationship to benefit your business or yourself.
6. Remember to maximize for happiness, not money or status.
7. Get ready for rejection.
8. Success unshared is failure. Give back — share your wealth.
9. (A secret so powerful, we simply cannot tell you)
10. Successful people do all the things unsuccessful people don’t want to do.

Kaiseki 懷石料理－ New Furusato
Approaching to the end of the year, E suggested that we should have a luxury dinner in New Furusato – a very fine Japanese Restaurant in Hotel Lisboa.
He said that Kaiseki is a good choice, as I haven't tried Kaiseki before and am curious of what it is, I checked out over Internet, it seems that I saw the information in TV long time ago, the food is very nice present, but in a very tiny portion, and there are a lot of dishes.
He has my vote, no matter the price is, it is a reward to myself, but am thinking that the portion is too small for me – for I am a big eater.

Happy Shopping
After Yam Cha today,
I walked slowly along the Central Market area,
this is the place that I pass by almost every day ,
however, as it is holiday,
I started to realise that there are plenty of things to shop in this area.
As I need to buy things for myself,
I started to enjoy the shopping around in this area,
and I discovered I myself - were among the tourists in this shopping area,
two places I shopped,
one shopper was an Indian,
the other place - the customer was a HK visitor,
I started to think -
Where do the Macau People shop??

Inside the Chinese Restaurant
As usual,
have Sunday morning tea with my family.
I always find out there are a lot of interesting things inside the Chinese Restaurant.
Besides enjoying the Dim Sum,
there are a lot of chatting topics there among the customers that I can listen,
and I can also observe a lot of interesting activities,
as how the waiters/waitress work,
how they please certain old customers,
how they treat some unknown customers.
It is very natural,
it is kind of human beings behaviour,
in such a crowded place.
Last week, when I was in TTK,
I saw one lady who needed not to wait for the table,
but when she arrived,
all the waitresses greeted her and spent a lot of time talking with her,
asking what she wanted.....
I remember this,
as today,
I am in CTU,
and I saw the similar picture,
and at the same time,
I also saw the lady gave 20 patacas to the manager when she arrived the table .
For the same waitress,
one could spend a lot of time chatting with the old lady,
but she could have another face to the other customer -
she blamed a man for he didn't order the food at one time.
From the Chinese restaurant,
one can always observe the personality of different people!

牛肉乾
星期日早上,
出門即見一位交通警員剛駕著電單車進入家附近的小區,
此處應為禁止泊車的地方,
但因為是內街兼斜坡頂,
長期有很多私家車及電單車停泊在此.
相信交通警員亦很清楚,
車主們是時常公開的非法泊位,
問題是交通警員是否要交功課.
話說今早時候尚早,
汽車數量接近10多部,
電單車更是不計其數,
說時遲,那時快,
街中間咖啡室的老板娘即時走出店外,
四處奔跑,
往街頭及街尾多處按門鐘通知有車泊在街上的車主,
而那位警員就慢動作的開始他的工作....
真是一幅圖畫形成強烈對比,
心想,
這是一個什麼的社會問題?
今早有多少人食了牛肉乾?

初冬郊遊樂 港版七大自然奇景
(綜合報道)(星島日報報道)全新世界七大自然奇景剛被選出，認同及爭議聲不絕；其實奇景處處有，就算是寸金尺土的香港，自然奇景亦不少。今天找來本地不同專家，嚴選港版七大自然奇景，最適合這個初冬時節遊覽。文：朱士里
印洲塘 現桂林美
位於香港東北面的印洲塘海岸公園，由於周邊小島形成天然屏風，令印洲塘長年波平如鏡，倒影之美景靚到絕，故被稱為「香港小桂林」，甚至被美譽為「上有蘇杭，下有印塘」，古時的人更想像為「印台」，故命名為印洲塘。
交通：沒有公共交通，可於馬料水或大尾篤自行租船前往或參加導賞團。
龍脊 瞭望美景
於2004年被《時代雜誌（亞洲版）》評為「全亞洲最佳市區遠足點」的龍脊，聞名海外，不少遊客特地花約三小時來遊覽。最獨特之處是位於香港島的其中一隻「腳」上，景觀收納東西兩邊海岸美景，是本港最佳的天然「景觀瞭望台」。
交通：筲箕灣乘9號巴士在石澳道土地灣下車，位於石澳郊野公園內。
農林督察陳嘉麗：「龍脊是最靚的市區行山徑。」
米埔 萬鳥飛舞
已被納入拉姆薩爾國際重要濕地的米埔，踏入秋冬季將可看到萬鳥飛舞！每年12月約有六萬隻候鳥在港過冬，品種逾三百種，包括瀕危的黑臉琵鷺。
交通：沒有直達的公共交通，可於西鐵綫元朗站或東鐵綫上水站轉乘的士前往。
WWF香港分會保護區主任梁嘉善：「候鳥遇見麻鷹和鵰時，逃走時成漩渦形！」
糧船灣 火山岩柱
糧船灣位於萬宜水庫東南面，最巴閉是名為「糧船灣組」的罕見彎曲火山岩柱，屬早白堊世滘西洲火山岩群，厚度約四百米，年齡可追溯至白堊紀時期，即是一億多歲！風景以外，糧船灣海膽養殖場亦屬奇景，被CNNGo網站評選為亞洲二十五個最被忽略的遊點之一，謹記去埋養殖場才離開。
交通：在西貢墟乘94號巴士至北潭涌下車，沿大網仔路轉入西貢萬宜路，抵達萬宜水庫東壩後，按萬宜地質步道的指示步行即可。
海下灣 水底樹木
位於西貢半島北岸，屬於本港第二個海岸公園的海下灣海岸公園，最大賣點是珊瑚。全港八十多種珊瑚中佔六十四種，其中一種較罕見的是有水底樹木之稱的黑珊瑚。
交通：可於西貢小巴總站乘搭7號小巴至海下。
高級環境保護主任（海洋）李美華：「海下灣的黑珊瑚特別繁盛！」
東平洲 沉積岩
香港最東北的島嶼，面積約1.16平方公里，可看到逾千年的沉積岩因海蝕形成的地形，如海蝕平台、海蝕柱和海蝕岩，於2006年被選為「香港十大勝景選舉」的第二名，現為東平洲海岸公園的一部分。
交通：於周末及假日，可由馬料水公眾碼頭乘渡輪至東平洲，船程約一小時半。
果洲群島 六角岩
位於香港東南部的果洲群島，北果洲以觀岩為主，最奇特的是巨大面積的六角柱狀節理火山岩，岩柱平均高逾兩米，最高達三米，屬世界罕見級數。
交通：必須自行包船或參加生態團前往，由西貢出發約一個多小時。
本地攀山專家鍾建民：「你會感受到大自然的宏偉，但較難到達。」

Song - Take me to your heart
Hiding from the rain and snow
Trying to forget but I won't let go
Looking at a crowded street
Listening to my own heart beat
So many people all around the world
Tell me where do I find someone like you gir
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is
Haven't got a clue
Show me that wonders can be true
They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
Bring me far away
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is
Be my guiding star
It's easy
Take me to your heart
...
Standing on a mountain high
Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
I should go and see some friends
But they don't really comprehend
Don't need too much talking
Without saying anything
All I need is someone
Who makes me want to sing
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is
Haven't got a clue
Show me that wonders can be true
They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
Bring me far away
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is
Be my guiding star
It's easy
Take me to your heart
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is
Be my guiding star
It's easy
Take me to your heart
Trying to forget but I won't let go
Looking at a crowded street
Listening to my own heart beat
So many people all around the world
Tell me where do I find someone like you gir
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is
Haven't got a clue
Show me that wonders can be true
They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
Bring me far away
Take me to your heart
Take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is
Be my guiding star
It's easy
Take me to your heart
...
Standing on a mountain high

Black Friday Sale
Black Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day in the United States, traditionally the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. On this day, most major retailers open extremely early, often at 4 a.m., or earlier, and offer promotional sales to kick off the shopping season, similar to Boxing Day sales in many Commonwealth Nations. Black Friday is not actually a holiday, but many non-retail employers give their employees the day off, increasing the number of potential shoppers. It has routinely been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005, although news reports, which at that time were inaccurate, have described it as the busiest shopping day of the year for a much longer period of time.
The day's name originated in Philadelphia, where it originally was used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic which would occur on the day after Thanksgiving. Use of the term started before 1966 and began to see broader use outside Philadelphia around 1975. Later an alternative explanation began to be offered: that "Black Friday" indicates the point at which retailers begin to turn a profit, or are "in the black".
For many years, it was common for retailers to open at 6:00, but in the late 2000s, many had crept to 5:00 or even 4:00. This was taken to a new extreme in 2011, when several retailers (including Target, Kohls, Macy's, Best Buy, and Bealls) opened at midnight for the first time. An online petition with more than 200,000 virtual signatures is aimed at asking Target not to open so early. Walmart opened at 10:00 pm on Thanksgiving and Toys 'R' Us at 9:00 pm. In 2010, Sears was open on Thanksgiving day.
I miss the Black Friday Sale, as well as the Boxing Day Sale, because shopping is fun!

Wedding Readings from the Bible
Corinthians 13
If I speak in the tongues of men and angels,
but have not love,
I have become sounding brass or a tinkling symbol.
And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.
And if I dole out all my goods, and
if I deliver my body that I may boast
but have not love, nothing I am profited.
Love is long suffering,
love is kind,
it is not jealous,
love does not boast,
it is not inflated.
It is not discourteous,
it is not selfish,
it is not irritable,
it does not enumerate the evil.
It does not rejoice over the wrong, but rejoices in the truth
It covers all things,
it has faith for all things,
it hopes in all things,
it endures in all things.
Love never falls in ruins;
but whether prophecies, they will be abolished; or
tongues, they will cease; or
knowledge, it will be superseded.
For we know in part and we prophecy in part.
But when the perfect comes, the imperfect will be superseded.
When I was an infant,
I spoke as an infant,
I reckoned as an infant;
when I became an adult,
I abolished the things of the infant.
For now we see through a mirror in an enigma, but then face to face.
Now I know in part, but then I shall know as also I was fully known.
But now remains
faith, hope, love,
these three;
but the greatest of these is love.
If I speak in the tongues of men and angels,

Poem - Eskimo Love Song
You are my husband, you are my wife
My feet shall run because of you
My feet dance because of you
My heart shall beat because of you
My eyes see because of you
My mind thinks because of you
And I shall love, because of you.
My feet shall run because of you
My feet dance because of you
My heart shall beat because of you
My eyes see because of you
My mind thinks because of you
And I shall love, because of you.
For Everything There is a Season
For everything there is a season
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Poem - BURY MY BODY but don't bury my beliefs
A time will come when my life will cease. But when that time comes, I ask that you remember these things:
BURY MY BODY but don't bury my beliefs
BURY MY HEART but don't bury my love
BURY MY EYES but not my vision
BURY MY FEET but not the path of my life
BURY MY HANDS but don't bury my diligent efforts
BURY MY SHOULDERS but not the concerns I carried
BURY MY VOICE but not my message
BURY MY MIND but don't bury my dreams
BURY ME but don't bury my life.
IF YOU MUST BURY SOMETHING, LET IT BE MY FAULTS AND MY WEAKNESSES. BUT LET MY LIFE CONTINUE ON IN YOU.

Poem - Remember Me
To the living, I am gone,
To the sorrowful, I will never return,
To the angry, I was cheated,
But to the happy, I am at peace,
And to the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.
So as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful sea-
As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity-
Remember me.
Remember me in your heart:
Your thoughts, and your memories,
Of the times we loved,
The times we cried,
The times we fought,
The times we laughed.
For if you always think of me, I will never have gone.

Poem - Love
Love means to learn to look at yourself
The way one looks at distant things
For you are only one thing among many.
And whoever sees that way heals his heart,
Without knowing it, from various ills
A bird and a tree say to him: Friend.
Then he wants to use himself and things
So that they stand in the glow of ripeness.
It doesnt matter whether he knows what he serves:
Who serves best doesn't always understand.
Czeslaw Milosz

Poem - To Those Whom I love & Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me, let me go.
I have so many things to see and do,
You mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears,
But be thankful we had so many good years.
I gave you my love, and you can only guess
How much you've given me in happiness.
I thank you for the love that you have shown,
But now it is time I traveled on alone.
So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust.
It is only for a while that we must part,
So treasure the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away for life goes on.
And if you need me, call and I will come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I will be near.
And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear,
All my love around you soft and clear.
And then, when you come this way alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and a 'Welcome Home'.
Anon.

Poem - Remember
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
From: Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress and Other Poems. Christina Rosetti. 1879.

澳門紅街市附近的「桃花崗」
今天下午要找一些資料,
偶然看到一個我曾經時常經過的小巷,
只知早上現時多是家庭主婦及友人飲咖啡的地方,
原來那兒有一個很特別的名稱!
"紅街市附近昔日為工業區。
街市東側有一陋巷，
因女工經常聚集午膳，
故名「桃花崗」。"

Appalachian Spring - Aaron Copland LIVE
This is one of my favorite music.
When I was studying in Berea,
I learned this master piece in one music course,
and I loved it immediately!
That bit from 4:46 to 5:20 is probably the most beautiful,
probably I related myself living in such a beautiful and quiet campus,
which is located in the Appalachian area,
and I liked the Spring time there.
The Appalachian Spring is really very special to me !

张茵祖籍黑龙江省鸡西市，1957年出生于广东，父母都是“南下”军队干部。1982年，父亲平反，张茵终于有机会攻读她喜爱的财会专业，为她日后的成功奠定了良好的基础。
2006张茵通过废纸回收再生产问鼎首富。从最传统的行业造就最富有的女性，她变废为宝的秘诀是：循环经济——回收废纸，制造再生纸。2006年10月11日，《2006胡润百富榜》揭晓，张茵以270亿元问鼎中国内地首富，也是世界上最富有的女性白手起家者。2009年张茵家族以财富330亿元排名第一，再次重登《胡润百富榜》女富豪榜榜首。
1985年，27岁的张茵放弃了深圳一个待遇优厚的合资企业的财会工作，带了3万元钱只身到香港闯荡。

莎莎称，中国内地业务表现稍逊预期，主要是由于店铺网络净增加13家莎莎店铺，其中7家于第二季度开业;此外调配经验员工到新店导致原有旧店生产力下降，员工培训尚未赶上店铺扩充步伐。目前，莎莎集团正在检讨开店计划，以决定店铺扩充的步伐及方法。对于已签订租约的15家店铺则“仍会按计划开业”。
在港澳地区无限风光的莎莎连锁化妆品专卖店，为何在内地市场“水土不服”?有业内人士指出，主要是因为在内地开店失掉了在免税区的“价格优势”，而又无法以“特色”取胜。此外，北京市场化妆品连锁店的同质化经营也是重要因素。

牛仔/牛佬/鬼佬 Cow boy / Cow man/ Ghost
Today,my Portuguese colleague asked us -
what were the meaning of "cow boy/cow man" 牛仔/牛佬,
and what was the difference.
At the beginning,
we were very surprised,
for a Portuguese who didn't speak Chinese,
he was interested of these two terms.
After the explanation,
he explained that outside the office,
for many times,
he heard the people called him "cow man" !
He caught the pronunciation,
and was curious about the exact meaning.
Yes,
it reminded me that in the old time,
we, the Chinese called the western people as cow boy,
and also -
ghost 鬼佬,
for they look very different with our Chinese.
Got this information from wiki:
「鬼佬」除了表示白人外，也常特指白種男人。
粵語俗話中亦有不少類似的稱呼：

台灣的牛蒡茶
家中有人去台灣旅行,
回來帶了牛蒡茶做手信,
我個人分享了一整包,
遠較先前的x酥x餅有新鮮感之餘,
又健康!
急不及待拿回辦公室,
取了數片,
用滾水沖泡,
色澤金黃、
香味宜人......
上網查詢其食用價值:(中華百科)
《本草綱目》中詳載：牛蒡性溫、味甘無毒，通十二經脈、除五臟惡氣，久服輕身耐老。
有清熱、解毒、祛濕、健脾、開胃、通便、滋陰、補腎、益氣、降壓、防中風之功效。
營養學家認為東洋參（牛蒡）是中藥也是蔬菜，營養價值很高.
真的是不錯的手信!

巴裔港人當嚮導 文化導賞破隔閡
【明報專訊】葵涌重重工廈之間，隱藏不少巴基斯坦餐廳商店。有機構發起導賞團，由在港巴人充當嚮導帶領團友遊走這個巴基斯坦小區。隨團學生由認識而了解，明白不是包頭蓄鬚的便是拉登，巴人家庭與港人一樣，也要面對貴租與失業 。
文化導賞團的景點是寂寂無聞的屏麗徑和屏富徑，兩徑左右林立6間穆斯林餐廳、巴基斯坦雜貨店、樓上清真寺，也住了不少巴人。文化隔閡令港人對巴人一般充滿誤解，負責導賞計劃的聖公會麥理浩夫人中心少數族裔服務隊社工梁詠婷稱，曾有參觀的學生問巴裔導賞員，「你是不是拉登」。義工希望導賞團可以加強巴港接觸，消除誤解。

"花溪牛肉粉"
周日下午往拱北書城轉了一圈,
已很久沒有買書的衝動,不過仍然想看看有什麼新的書出版及最受歡迎的書種.
原沒打算食東西,
但因為肚餓,
最後選了
花溪牛肉粉.
看名子已感覺得是特色的中式快餐
有很多內地的人吃.
他們大包小包的手信,
應該是從澳門回來.
從資料得知,
花溪牛肉粉 源自貴陽,
現在已是全國都有連鎖店.
吃了一碗花溪牛肉粉
很快已端上來,
13元一碗,
濃濃香料的牛肉，
切成小片及小丁，
鋪在粉上，
洒上香菜和酸菜等一些配料，
配上香濃的牛骨汤
簡單,
但味道非常濃烈
按個人口味還可以加上糊辣椒和花椒!!

Clube Militar
Buffet lunch at Clube Militar,
today the main courses are duck rice and baked bacalha,
with appetizer - onion soup, salad and ham,
and various kinds of desserts.
A little bit disappointed of the food today,
can't say what 's wrong with the duck rice,
but it is not as tasty as our previous meals,
the bacalha is like pudding with a lot of milk,
for the dessert,
can't get the types I want....
though I don't drink coffee,
my colleagues tell me that the coffee is warm coffee.
After the lunch,
H told us that the restaurant has changed a new chef,
so,
:(
that means....
they have the margin for improvement!!

與灰塵共舞的豬牛肉乾
每天都會路經大三巴牌坊一帶,
那裡手信店,
食物店林立,
加上遊客不絕,
好不熱鬧,
每次都望著那些色艷美麗的各款手信食物,
存著一些基本的衛生疑問,
如店員的操守,
清潔打掃時食物仍然全無遮蓋,
再不用說如果有人的口水超勁時,
是否有額外加料?
心想,
眼不見,
為乾淨,
祝君好運!
最令我佩服的是,
數天前那裡的街道有工程進行,
灰塵處處,
行人路過,
也要掩鼻而走,
但各間手信店仍可以是視而不見,
各款豬牛肉乾仍是像曬太陽一樣,
放在店前,,,,,
與灰塵共舞,
真是奇景!
今夜,
嘗試觀察客人的反應,
望到一群操普通話的遊客,
正在試吃,
還感覺良好呢!

SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a
butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the
fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask
Have you ever watched kids

Ever followed a
butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the
fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask
How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,'Hi'
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last..
When you run
so fast to get somewhere
You
miss half the fun of getting
there.
When you worry and hurry
through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is
over.

腦在何方?
或者是我的愚昧,
每次經過板樟堂白馬行的窄窄行人道,
尤其是繁忙人多的時候,
我就會問,
為何政府有關部門竟可以在有限的行人空間,
再加上大量密密的固定的阻街路障,
途人眾多時,
嚴重浪費了可用的行人空間.
有時,
一些決定,
必須要周全及平衡大體為目標.
心想保障行人安全,
但那些阻街路障,
花納稅人的錢之餘,
還侵佔了行人應有的空間,
行人與馬路已有很明顯的區分,
是否真的要教行人如何行路?

Song - Dog and Butterfly (Heart)
There I was with the old man
Stranded again so off I'd ran
A young world crashing around me
No possibilities of getting what I need
He looked at me and smiled
Said "No, no, no, no, no child.
See the dog and butterfly. Up in the
Air he like to fly." Dog and butterfly
Below she had to try. She roll back down
To the warm soft ground laughing
She don't know why, she don't know why
Dog and butterfly
Well I stumbled upon your secret place
Safe in the trees you had tears on your face
Wrestling with your desires frozen strangers
Stealing your fires. The message hit my mind
Only words that I could find
See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to fly
Dog and butterfly below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft ground
Laughing to the sky, up to the sky
Dog and butterfly
We're getting older the world's getting colder
For the life of me I don't know the reason why
Maybe it's livin' making us give in
Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide
We're balanced together ocean upon the sky
Another night in this strange town
Moonlight holding me light as down
Voice of confusion inside of me
No begging to go back where I'm free
Feels like I'm through
Then the old man's words are true
See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to fly
Dog and butterfly, below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft
Ground with a little tear in her eye
She had to try, she had to try
Dog and butterfly
Stranded again so off I'd ran
A young world crashing around me
No possibilities of getting what I need
He looked at me and smiled
Said "No, no, no, no, no child.
See the dog and butterfly. Up in the
Air he like to fly." Dog and butterfly
Below she had to try. She roll back down
To the warm soft ground laughing
She don't know why, she don't know why

Well I stumbled upon your secret place
Safe in the trees you had tears on your face
Wrestling with your desires frozen strangers
Stealing your fires. The message hit my mind

Song -我愛他 (下一站.幸福 主題曲）丁噹
作曲：陳威全
填詞：黃婷
編曲：WAVE G
監製：朱敬然
他的輕狂留在 某一節車廂
地下鐵裡的風 比回憶還重
整座城市一直等著我
有一段感情還在漂泊
對他唯一遺憾 是分手那天
我奔騰的眼淚 都停不下來
若那一刻重來 我不哭
讓他知道我可以很好
*我愛他 轟轟烈烈最瘋狂
我的夢 狠狠碎過卻不會忘
曾為他 相信明天就是未來
情節有多壞 都不肯醒來
我愛他 跌跌撞撞到絕望
我的心 深深傷過卻不會忘
我和他 不再屬於這個地方
最初的天堂 最終的荒唐*
如果還有遺憾 又怎麼樣呢
傷了痛了懂了 就能好了嗎
曾經依靠彼此的肩膀
如今各自在人海流浪
我愛他 轟轟烈烈最瘋狂
我的夢 狠狠碎過卻不會忘
逃不開 愛越深越互相傷害
越深的依賴 越多的空白
該怎麼去愛
repeat * - *
如果還有遺憾 是分手那天
我奔騰的眼淚 都停不下來
若那一刻重來 我不哭
讓他知道我可以很好
