"I would rather be a ghost drifting by your side as a condemned soul than enter heaven without you... because of your love, I will never be a lonely spirit ." - Li Mu Bai
This Oscar-winning film is even more memorable with the theme interpreted by Coco Lee. The song's message sums up the emotions of every characters in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
A LOVE BEFORE TIME
sung by: Coco Lee
If the sky opened up for me
And the mountain disappeared
If the seas ran dry, turned to dust
And the sun refused to rise
I would still find my way
By the light I see in your eyes
The world I know fades away
But you stay
As the earth reclaims it due
And the cycle starts anew
We'll stay, always
In the love that we have
Shared before time
If the years take away
Every memory that I have
I would still know the way
That would lead me back to your side
The north star may die
But the light that I see in your eyes
Will burn there always
Lit by the love we have
Shared before time
When the forest turns to jade
And the stories that we've made
Dissolve away
One shining light will still remain
When we shed our earthly skin
And when our real life begins
There'll be no shame
Just the love that we have made before time
