Lyrics of My Future isn’t a Dream

Chinese Lyrics

English Translation

Do you bow your head in the sun like me

Hard working quietly in streaming sweat

Do you like me, even being treated indifferently

Still don’t want to give up your desire life

Do you busy whole day like me to pursuit,

pursuit a tenderness that you can’t think of

Do you ever adrift like mehover at crossroads again and again

Because I don’t care what people say

I have never forgotten mypromise to myself,

my attachment to love

I know, my future isn’t a dream

I seriously live every minuteMy future isn’t a dream

My heart beats with hope,

My future isn’t a dream

I seriously live every minute

My future isn’t a dream

My heart beats with hope

Beats with hope

My Future isn’t a Dream Tom Zhang 张雨生
