不知道是早晨
不知道是黄昏
看不到天上的云
见不到街边的灯

黑漆漆
阴沉沉
你让我在这里痴痴的等

想的是你的爱
想的是你的吻
流不尽相思的泪
熬不完离别的恨

梦悠悠
昏沉沉
你让我在这里痴痴的等

也曾听到走近的足声
撩起我多少兴奋
也曾低呼你的名字
盼着你向我飞奔

看清楚掠过的影子
才知道是一个陌生的人
会不会你再来
要不要我再等
一遍遍我自己想
一声声我自己问

爱越深
恨越深
我还是在这里
痴痴的等
Unsure if this is morning
Unsure if this is night
I see no clouds
I see no lights

It is dark
It is grim
You had me waiting here

On my mind is your love
On my mind is your kiss
Endless tears of memory
Unbearable thoughts of separation

How dreamy
How dizzy
You had me waiting here

At times I heard footsteps
And it stirred me up
At times I called out your name
To see you running toward me

When I see the passing shadow
I realized it's a stranger
Will you be coming?
Must I keep waiting?
These thoughts I locked myself
These thoughts I tortured myself

The deeper the love
The deeper the hate
I'm still here
Waiting for you

Music: 王福龄. Lyrics: 陶秦. Translation: 李杀 (Xah Lee).

The song has been sung by many modern songstresses, including 梅艳芳 (Anita Mui, 1963 to 2003).
