Title: รู้บ้างไหม / Roo Bahng Mai (Do You Know?)
Artist: Venus Butterfly
Album: The First
Year: 2009
Do you know? Would you ever acknowledge it?
That someone’s waiting, waiting for you to give me some attention
Do you know that you’ve got some people giving their hearts to you?
And I’m waiting for just one moment that you’ll understand
Why? Why are you so cold?
I want to know, do you have a heart?
Do you know just how tiring it is waiting for someone to be interested in you?
But you give it to so many others, there’s none left for me
Do you realize I’m feeling slighted? I’m feeling slighted…
It’s like I’ve lost the way
Which way should I go? I don’t know, I don’t know
What I’ve never once been brave enough to say is echoing around in my heart
Why? Oh, baby, you’re so cold…
I want to know, to know, do you have a heart?
Do you know just how tiring it is to wait?
I don’t know what I should do, but I refuse this!
This… Baby, please… Do you know?
Do you know? Would you ever acknowledge it?
What are you doing making me wait like this
Until you’ll give me some attention?
Baby, baby, darling
How much more must I do
Until you understand, understand me?
Will you acknowledge me?
You’re in my heart, every word is still a dream
I have only you in my heart
Do you know?
[NOTE: I feel like Thai lyrics for Venus Butterfly’s B-side songs are non-existent on the internet 🙁 haha. So I translated by ear]
I had heard and saw the Venus Butterfly name numerous times, but never cared to check them out and wow, must I say I am just so taken back. The melody, to the music, to the fasicinating meaning was just so significant. Just did a quick research of them and now I am excited about their soon-to-be release English and Thai album; Hehehe. Thank you! 🙂
I really like Venus Butterfly! They have a very unique sound, I think. I can’t think of another group that sounds like them 😀 It’s been a long time since their debut album, I hope they release that new album soon!! I’ve been missing them~ It should be good! Plus they’re Thai-American, so their English is legit and not broken or badly accented like other artists hahaha~ Glad I could turn you on to VB! 😀
I LOVE VENUS Butterfly (the band)…awesome!!!Nice songs…
