Back to album: Who Cares?
Singer: Anson Hu
Lyricist: 毛惠
Composer: Anson Hu
English Translation: DeniseJF
This song is very poetic, it is a Chinese styled song-poem. It illustrates beautiful scenery and it is supposed to be a very warm and cosy song. I have attempted to retain as much of the original Chinese structure to make the song beautiful, as it is supposed to be.
