9/9 Jay Chou - Love Before BC

Love Before BC Jay Chou The King of Babylon enacted the Code of Hammurabi Engraved on black basalt Over three thousand seven hundred years ago You gaze at the inscription in the display window While I quietly admire your beloved face beside you Priests, temples, battles, arrows, whose past is this? I love that scene where you belong only to me amidst the crowd Passing by the statue of Ishtar, I made a wish in her name My longing spreads like the Tigris River When ancient civilizations leave only undecipherable languages Legends become immortal poems I wrote my love for you in BC Buried deep in the Mesopotamian plain Discovered decades of centuries later The script on the clay tablet is still clearly visible I wrote my love for you in BC Buried deep in the Mesopotamian plain Carved forever in cuneiform script The vow weathered for millennia, everything repeats Priests, temples, battles, arrows, whose past is this? I love that scene where you belong only to me amidst the crowd Passing by the statue of Ishtar, I made a wish in her name My longing spreads like the Tigris River When ancient civilizations leave only undecipherable languages Legends become immortal poems I wrote my love for you in BC Buried deep in the Mesopotamian plain Discovered decades of centuries later The script on the clay tablet is still clearly visible I wrote my love for you in BC Buried deep in the Mesopotamian plain Carved forever in cuneiform script The vow weathered for millennia, everything repeats
