I Promise to Be There for You
Guidance for Reciting
Love is a chord in life,not a solo.
If one day you feel like crying…
Call me.
I don't promise that I will make you laugh,
But I can cry with you.
If one day you want to run away―
Don't be afraid to call me.
I don't promise to ask you to stop…
But I can run with you.
If one day you don't want to listen to anyone…
Call me.
I promise to be there for you,
And I promise to be very quiet.
But if one day you call…
And there is no answer…
Come fast to see me,
Perhaps I need you.
与你相伴
诵读导言
爱是人生的和弦,而不是独奏曲。
如果有一天你想要哭,
呼唤我。
我不能保证把你逗笑,
但我会和你一起哭泣。
如果有一天你想要逃避,
尽管呼唤我。
我不能保证阻止你,
但我可以和你一起离开。
如果有一天你不想听任何人说话,
呼唤我。
我保证会在你身旁,
并且保持安静。
但如果有一天你呼唤我,
而没有回应,
快来到我的身边吧,
也许,我需要你。
