Back to One album track 8 - Treasure.
I wrote this song thinking of some strong female vocalists in mind, but somehow it never got picked up by anyone. But I think I could handle it myself now, so here we go. Change of perspectives, change of attitude etc., always helps.
@tjoemusic amazing guitar playing, @chansiukei bass, @natewong.playsgongs drums. Dream team.
Treasure
(Chet Lam)
The 2am phone call last night
made me worry about you
You said there’s no more you could give him
It has reached a point of no return
Comfort from friends cannot last for long
You have to clear your mind
Is it just because you’re too tired
So you let your emotion get the best of you
Have you talked with him?
It could have been some one sided pointless compromise
No one could ever question your sincerity
But how long can you be in this desperate state?
For those who know how to treasure you
Would worry about you being too serious
Just when the heat of argument is too overwhelming they would hold you
Look at you and tell you ‘we can work it out’
For those who know how to treasure love
Would give you some responsibility
Just when love is too overwhelming
They would let you go knowing there’s always trust in the end
No need to calculate who has won or lost
Or care about who gives in first
Actually if you have to worry about something
It would be there’s not enough time to love each other
There is no right or wrong in loving a person
The only question is ‘do you’
You will forget the reason you fight in the first place
Just remember, don’t part easily

《思源》專輯第八首 - 懂得珍惜你的人
創作時一直想像一位powerful的女歌手會怎樣唱，但一直沒有人認領，到現在我想我可以駕馭到這個節奏與用聲，so here we go。角度，經歷，情緒，種種改變之後，我可以了。
懂得珍惜你的人
(林一峰)
昨晚兩點那通電話
讓我為你擔心很久
你說你為他付出已足夠
早過了盡頭
朋友安慰不能持久
你要冷靜看清所有
其實是否只因爲太累
情緒仍然不肯罷休
噢 你們有好好談過嗎？
可能是一廂情願的無謂犧牲
絕對沒人 有權利去懷疑你的認真
只是誰可以
長期處於火熱水深
懂得珍惜你的人
會心疼你太過認真
吵架到熱處會把你抱緊
用凝視告訴你一切還有可能
懂得珍惜愛的人
會給你負一點責任
相愛到難處會讓你呼吸
用放手告訴你到最後還有信任
不用計較誰嬴誰輸
介意誰先拿出量度
其實應該更加擔心
相愛時間已經不足
愛一個人沒有對錯
問題到底只剩是否
吵架其實不為理由
記着別隨便說分手
懂得珍惜你的人
會心疼你太過認真
吵架到熱處會把你抱緊
用凝視告訴你一切還有可能
懂得珍惜愛的人
會給你負一點責任
相愛到難處會讓你呼吸
用放手告訴你到最後還有信任
