CHRISTINE
Think of me,think of me, fondly

When we've said goodbye
當我們已互道再會
Remember me once in a while
記著我 偶爾也好
Please promise me you'll try

you long to take you back and be free
你渴望將你的人收回奔向自由
If you ever find a moment,
 
若你找到那個片刻
spare a thought for me
分些思念給我
We never said our love was evergreen
我們從沒說我們的愛是永恆的
or as unchanging as the sea
也不曾說它像大海一樣永不改變
But if you can still remember, stop and think of me
但若你能記得,請你想起我
Think of all the things we've shared and seen
想想那些我們曾一起分享經歷的事情
Do'nt think about the way things might has been
不要去想 那些或許曾經擁有過的
Think of me, of me waking, silent and resigned
想想我 想著我甦醒時 默默不語且逆來順受
Imagine me, trying too hard to put you from my mind
想像著 我努力試著忘記你 卻始終不能將你自心中抹去
Recall those days, look back on all those times
回想起那些日子回顧那些時光
Thinks of the things, we'll never do
想想那些我們永遠做不到的事
There will never be a day, when I won't think of you
永遠不會有這麼一天當我不再想念你
