Way Back into Love
"Way Back Into Love" is a pop song, written by Adam Schlesinger, from the 2007 film Music and Lyrics. There are two versions: a demo version sung by Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore and the final version sung by Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett. It was used as the love theme in the film, much of whose plot revolves around the writing and arranging of the song.Despite the fact that the song was not released as a CD single, it has managed to get onto the music charts in some Asian countries.[Verse 1]
(Drew Barrymore)
I've been living with a shadow overhead,
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed,
I've been lonely for so long,
Tapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on!
(Hugh Grant)
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away,
Just in case I ever need them again someday,
I've been setting aside time,
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind!
[Chorus]
(Both)
All I want to do is find a way back into love.
I can't make it true without a way back into love.
Oooooh.
[Verse 2]
(Drew Barrymore)
I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine,
I've been searching but i just don't see the signs,
I know that it's out there,
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere!
(Hugh Grant)
I've been looking for someone to shed some light,
Not somebody just to get me through the night,
I could use some direction,
And I'm open to your suggestions.
[Chorus]
(Both)
All I want to do is find a way back into love.
I can't make it through without a way back into love.
And if I open my heart again,
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end!
Oooooooh, Ooooooh, Ooooooh.
[Middle-eight]
(Drew Barrymore)
There are moments when I don't know if it's real.
Or if anybody feels the way I feel I need inspiration.
Not just another negotiation...
[Chorus]
(Both)
All I want to do is find a way back into love,
I can't make it through without a way back into love,
And if I open my heart to you,
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do,
And if you help me to start again,
You know that I'll be there for you in the end!
Oooooooh. Oooooooh. Ooooooooh. Oooooooh. Ooooooh Ooooooooh. Ooooooooh.

2007 Reminiscence
Happening to see the article "2007 simple reminiscence" written by my friend,it occurred to me that I should also write one,now that an old year, 2007 has ended,and a new year 2008 has begun.
In 2007,before the Entrance Exam in the beginning of Febuary,I had been busy commuting between school and home,studying and preparing for the coming exam.After the result came out,I felt upset and discouraged,but soon picked myself up and moved from home to a dormitory.It was then I met my new roommate.She taught me a lot and we both learned many things from each other,though she had already qualified as a madical academy student.
At the beginning of June,my only roommate moved from the dormitory,leaving me living without company for the whole month.But I was glad that some of my friends came to my dormitory and kept me company from time to time.On June 9th,I graduated from Taichung Girls' Senior High School.It was not until that day did I find myself so reluctant to say goodbye to my classmates.
The final big exam fell on July 2,3.So thoughtful my brother was that he went for the exam with me.Not only did he keep waiting outside for me,but he went afield in order to buy me lunch.Two days later,I flew to Mainland China with tens of my senior schoolmates for the fifteen-day trip.We did have a great time,broaden our horizons,make friends with one another,and go through difficulties all together on the journey.The day before I came back to Taiwan,I was sad to hear that I did not make well on the big exam.To speak frankly,the score was lower than I had expected.On August 8,after the result released,I was announced to be a freshman of Accounting Department of National Taopei University.
At the end of summer vacation,I got a fracture of my left hand in an accident.With my hand fixed,I took almost one and a half month off in school and stayed at home.I missed the golden chance to befriend my new classmates and adjust to the new school at the beginning of the semester.After the National Day,eventually I could go to school and began my new college life.So far I have fitted in well and got along well with my classmates.
On November 24,I had lunch with my senior schoolmate in Taichung City.On December 1,I went shopping around Taipei Main Station with my classmate and spent a lot of money.On December 14,15,I went out with my senior high classmates.On December 27,I got my hair permed.On December 29,I went to Shiling night market with my previous roommate.On December 31,the last day of 2007,I ate hotpot with my classmates in celebration of passing an old year and welcoming a new year.
