As I Grew Older

  • It was a long time ago

    It was a long time ago
    I wanted to learn Chinese.
  • and then the wall rose

    and then the wall rose
    people laughed at my accent
  • No longer the light of my dream before me

    I no longer believe I can learn to speak Chinese
  • find my dream!

    find my dream!
    I decide I will speak Chinese, even if I have a strong accent!
