i like perhaps love. it looks more caberet than circus. not as brilliantly crafted as moulin rouge but jacky cheung's vocal prowess and delectable eye candies in zhou xun and takeshi kaneshiro counterpoise that. i like dramatic love stories. i like passionate soundtracks. i just really like that show. poignantly heartbreaking how people are always forced to make choices between true love and relationships dictated by circumstances. even more disturbing is that we meet and love different individuals at different points in time but the one that we realise only later we love most can only be a thing of the past, a distant memory to bury so that the searing pain can dull itself one day. and then we end up with the person who appears at the most opportune time but at the back of our heads, we are always thinking of that one person. some people just never have the fortune to meet that someone who will love them back with the same intensity. how tragic.
Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home
Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don`t know what to do
The memory of love will see you through
Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don`t know
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it`s cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
