Bring Me Anywhere Chan Chong Yan (HKU)
Bring me anywhere – I’d take your lift You’d speed past the wet blur of streets Forgetting how I projected my youth on you With our hands clasped and steps slowed on some boulevard Where the lights never turned green. Bring me anywhere – I’d take your lift You promised me tangerine sunsets That only turned into some 6 pms And like dusk, we kiss the edges of history Not knowing how the night befalls as love wanes. Bring me anywhere – I’d take your lift You’ve spent your life frequenting the heartbreak hotel Tailing dreams that confused themselves as memories But kept all the exits to yourself To save me the room keys she left you.
