Christine Welch - A Million Possibilities (一百万个可能) Lyrics

Fantastic voice, fantastic lyrics (she wrote the song herself) and the fact that she's an ang mo who can sing in Chinese much better than I could... well, that's just an extra bonus :P Enjoy!


Lyrics:

幽静 窗外 满地片片寒花
You jing chuang wai man di pian pian han hua
一瞬间 永恒的时差 窝在棉被里
Yi shun jian yong heng de shi cha wo zai mian bei li
倾听 踏雪听沉默的声音
Qing ting ta xue ting chen mo de sheng yin
飘雪藏永恒的身影 雪树下等你
Piao xue cang yong heng de shen ying xue shu xia deng ni

在一瞬间 有一百万个可能
Zai yi shun jian you yi bai wan ge ke neng
该向前走 或者继续等
Gai xiang qian zou huo zhe ji xu deng
这冬夜里 有百万个不确定
Zhe dong ye li you bai wan ge bu que ding
渐入深夜 或期盼天明
Jian ru shen ye huo qi pan tian ming

云空的泪 一如冰凌结晶了 成雪花垂
Yun kong de lei yi ru bing ling jie jing le cheng xue hua chui
这一瞬间 有一百万个可能
Zhe yi shun jian you yi bai wan ge ke neng
窝进棉被 或面对寒冷
Wo jin mian bei huo mian dui han leng

幽静 寒风吹来一缕声音
You jing han feng chui lai yi lue sheng yin
一瞬间 看着你走近
Yi shun jian kan zhe ni zou jin
暖了我冬心
Nuan le wo dong xin

倾听 踏雪听沉默的声音
Qing ting ta xue ting chen mo de sheng yin
飘雪藏永恒的身影
Piao xue cang yong heng de shen ying
雪树下等你
Xue shu xia deng ni

在一瞬间 有一百万个可能
Zai yi shun jian you yi bai wan ge ke neng
该向前走 或者继续等
Gai xiang qian zou huo zhe ji xu deng
这冬夜里 有百万个不确定
Zhe dong ye li you bai wan ge bu que ding
渐入深夜 或期盼天明
Jian ru shen ye huo qi pan tian ming

云空的泪 一如冰凌结晶了 成雪花垂
Yun kong de lei yi ru bing ling jie jing le cheng xue hua chui
这一瞬间 有一百万个可能
Zhe yi shun jian you yi bai wan ge ke neng
窝进棉被 或面对寒冷
Wo jin mian bei huo mian dui han leng

那晚上会是哪个瞬间
Na wan shang hui shi na ge shun jian
说好的爱会不会改变
Shuo hao de ai hui bu hui gai bian
而你让我徘徊 在千里之外 Yeah 你让我等
Er ni rang wo pai huai zai qian li zhi wai Yeah ni rang wo deng
了好久 Baby
Liao hao jiu Baby

突然间那是哪个瞬间
Tu ran jian na shi na ge shun jian
你终于出现 就是那个瞬间
Ni zhong yu chu xian jiu shi na ge shun jian
等了好久 忍不住伸手 那个瞬间
Deng le hao jiu ren bu zhu shen shou na ge shun jian

在一瞬间 有一百万个可能
Zai yi shun jian you yi bai wan ge ke neng
该向前走 或者继续等
Gai xiang qian zou huo zhe ji xu deng
这深夜里 有百万个不确定
Zhe shen ye li you bai wan ge bu que ding
渐入冬林 或走向街灯
Jian ru dong lin huo zou xiang jie deng

云空的泪 一如冰凌结晶了 成雪花垂
Yun kong de lei yi ru bing ling jie jing le cheng xue hua chui
这一瞬间 有一百万个可能
Zhe yi shun jian you yi bai wan ge ke neng
暖这冬心 或面对寒冷
Nuan zhe dong xin huo mian dui han leng

该向前走 或者继续等
Gai xiang qian zou huo zhe ji xu deng
渐入冬林 或走向街灯
Jian ru dong lin huo zou xiang jie deng
窝进棉被 或面对寒冷
Wo jin mian bei huo mian dui han leng
暖这冬心 或面对寒冷
Nuan zhe dong xin huo mian dui han leng


"When I first heard this, my mind was blown - She has an incredible voice and that voice wobble is done so perfectly! Finding out she's ang mo (a foreigner) and the backstory behind this song only make this song so much better!" S.Y.

Meaning: 
The song is set in winter hence the starting of the song describes, so eloquently I might add, the scenery. Then the chorus hits and she sings about the indecision of sticking around and waiting "under the snow-covered tree" or moving on with her life; whether to "hide under the warm blanket" or "head out and face the bitter cold".

One day, in the cold quiet winter, she heard the sounds of footsteps (as you would when walking in snow) and a voice calling out in the distance. And there he was. As he walks closer, his presence warms her chilly heart.

She then (kind of) chatize the guy, singing that he said his love for her will never change, but you made me wait... wait for so long. And suddenly you appear, but it's just for a brief moment.

"Probably not my best work but I'm rather drowsy now - it's late here. I'll work to improve this tmr"
