Are you here?

Tell me, please, are you writing to me?

Every day, wearing my best outfit, standing inside this glass box and watching the festive crowd outside, I long for seeing you pass by. Alone, with another man, anyhow. I've prepared my smile. I've prepared to stare at you and smile. But you never walked by. Just now I discover that -- you're not in hk.

I'm here, still here, being so alone, listening to the 42" plasma tv playing robbie williams, your favourite. He's singing "beyond the sea".



Somewhere beyond the sea
somewhere waiting for me
my lover stands on golden sands
and watches the ships that go sailing

Somewhere beyond the sea
she's there watching for me
If I could fly like birds on high
then straight to her arms
I'd go sailing

It's far beyond the stars
it's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
my heart will lead me there soon

We'll meet beyond the shore
we'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
and never again I'll go sailing

I know beyond a doubt
my heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet (I know we'll meet) beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
and never again I'll go sailing

no more sailing
so long sailing
bye bye sailing...
