The song has a good diction that is so touchy and rather difficult to be understood. It may be possible that people cannot get the meaning at the first listening. This song is about someone who feels that her love is better than ever. The style is melancholic and romantic so that it is easy listening to enjoy. When a couple feel so comfortable loving each other, he/she will accept a love not only in the happiness but also in the sadness.Song TitleContentLyricsStyleCultural TipsWhen you first meet someone it can be difficult to know how to start a conversation, especially if your cultural background and mother tongue are different. One topic that is safe to small talk is ‘Music’, e.g. “What sort of music do you like?”Adapted from: http://www.ediplomat.com
