Lyrics

竹轩 我爱国米
Yet another morning
that feels like this
Yet another life's bitter kiss
It has been like this for?I don't know how long
I only know that at some point
it all went wrong
I don't remember much from last night
but still far more than I would like to
I'm floating downstream that damned river again
What can I do now except continue
and open a bottle once more
What can I do now except see this through
and float with the stream, off the shore
see where the river will take me
When I needed you, you weren't there?
now I need booze like I need the air that I breathe
With each drink I'm drifting further away from your world
the further off I get the harder it will be to return
It has been like this for?I don't know how long
I only know that at some point
it all went wrong
Floating downstream that damned river again
The river that's distilled from premium grain
What can I do now except continue
and open a bottle once more
What can I do now except see this through
and float with the stream, off the shore
see where the river will take me
see where the river will take me

Pinyin

zhú xuān wǒ ài guó mǐ
Yet another morning
that feels like this
Yet another life' s bitter kiss
It has been like this for? I don' t know how long
I only know that at some point
it all went wrong
I don' t remember much from last night
but still far more than I would like to
I' m floating downstream that damned river again
What can I do now except continue
and open a bottle once more
What can I do now except see this through
and float with the stream, off the shore
see where the river will take me
When I needed you, you weren' t there?
now I need booze like I need the air that I breathe
With each drink I' m drifting further away from your world
the further off I get the harder it will be to return
It has been like this for? I don' t know how long
I only know that at some point
it all went wrong
Floating downstream that damned river again
The river that' s distilled from premium grain
What can I do now except continue
and open a bottle once more
What can I do now except see this through
and float with the stream, off the shore
see where the river will take me
see where the river will take me
