It’s about recalling the old life with my parents and the experience of living in an old house.
"Old Street" Li Ronghao
A faded photo seems to bring me a little nostalgia
The hot noodle soup bought by the old man at the end of the alley smells old The old back garden
The stray cat was sleeping soundly and rocking on the swing. The sunset shone through his eyes and squinted
The postcard sent by his deskmate lay quietly inside the desk
The spring is about to end and there are door curtains with carved patterns
The old houses on both sides of the narrow and long corridor are still rising with smoke
It has just finished light rain. The old street that Ji Ji’s parents walked together again
I can’t remember which day in which year. It was a long and short time
Now I can’t go back the time that has passed long ago
The gradually blurred ticket in my hand has become a signal of memories
I don’t know what I can’t forget, I can’t remember what I looked like back then
I can’t see the place I can’t go to. Maybe the tone of the old street belongs to my sadness
The smile at the corner of my mouth is becoming more and more reluctant. I don’t know what it is that I can’t forget.
I can’t let go of the familiar scenes and look back at the time that has passed many years
Looking at the sky through my fingers, I am back to the old street again
Leaning beside you and walking slowly The spring that is about to end is fading away
There are also door curtains with carved patterns on both sides of the narrow long corridor
The smoke from the old house is still rising in the season when it has just finished the light rain
I can’t remember which year or day I walked through the old street together again
The long and short years can no longer be returned
It has already passed I don’t know what I can’t forget, the gradually blurred ticket in my hand
I don’t know what I can’t forget
I can’t remember what it looked like back then.
There is no place that I can see or go to
Maybe the tone of the old street belongs to my sadness, the smile at the corner of my mouth is getting more and more forced
What I can’t forget I don’t know if I can’t let go of the familiar fragments
Looking back at the sky that has been there for so many years through my fingers
I’m back on that old street again, leaning against you and getting closer. Far
