lyrics
(hai an) Wo xie de shi hai an, bu shi cheng nuo I wrote a shoreline. They heard a promise. Same words. Shui zong shi zou, an zong shi liu xia The water always leaves. The shore is what stays and gets called faithful. And they play it while two people say forever And the song underneath is about a woman Walking out to where the ground stops agreeing to hold her A shoreline is not a promise, not a promise It is only the place where leaving becomes visible A shoreline is not a promise, not a promise And four hundred couples have danced on that misunderstanding Wo bu hui jie shi, yong yuan bu hui I will not explain it. Not once. Not to anyone. Ta men de si fen zhong bi wo de shi nian zhong yao Their four minutes weigh more than my ten years Wo ma ma zai ta zi ji de hun li shang ku le. My mother cried at her own wedding when it played. She knows. She has never said. We are a family of shorelines. A shoreline is not a promise, not a promise It is only the place where leaving becomes visible A shoreline is not a promise, not a promise And four hundred couples have danced on that misunderstanding (hai an...)
