  • Do you know the name of this song?

    there's this song that i really like and have been trying to find for a while. it's really old, probably from the late 80's. i have it on cassette, recorded from the radio (that's how old it is - it's on cassette).

    dave wong (王傑) sings a chinese version of it called 幾分傷心幾分痴. does anyone know what the english version is called? and who sings it?

    here are some of the lyrics. they are just from memory, so the words are not 100% accurate.

    You might think that you know me. I understand everything that you see.

    But don't be sure 'cause you don't know at all.

    Don't be fooled by the laughter, it's just a face that I wear for the party.

    But look inside and see what's missing there.

    I used to think that I could own the world. All I had to do was love you, girl.

    But time goes by and love just fades away.

    I used to think I was a happy man. That was back when I had a big plan.

    Take a second look now. What do you see?

    Chorus:

    Oh, it's just a river without a piece (?),

    A mountain without a steep (?),

    A ship at sea, without a sail, drifting helplessly.

    A blind man who never stops searching,

    A river without a close (?).

    Without your love, i'm half a man.

    I'm simply...on my own...

    Me too. I've been looking for this song for most of my life. But I think it goes more like...

    Don't be fooled by the laughter, it's just a face I wear for the party
    But look inside and see what's missing
    You know I used to be a happy man, but that was back then when I had a big plan
    Ohh how times change when love just fades away
    I used to think I could own the world, all I had to do was love you girl
    Take a look inside and see and what do you see?

    Ohh,,,
    A mountain without a peak
    A ship at sea without a wheel, drifting helplessly
    a blind man who never stops searching
    a river without a flow
    without your love I'm half the man, I'm simply on my own
