Never Would've Thought Of

The song 'Never Would've Thought Of' by F4 delves into the profound and transformative experience of unexpected love. The lyrics express a sense of surprise and wonder at the depth of emotions the narrator feels, something they never anticipated. The opening lines, 'Wǒ cóng lái méi xiǎng dào / Gǎn jué yǒu diǎn wéi miào,' translate to 'I never would have thought / It feels a bit subtle,' setting the tone for a journey of emotional discovery. The narrator is captivated by their partner's presence, to the point where the rest of the world fades into insignificance.

The song explores the vulnerability and intensity of love, as seen in lines like 'Ài zěn me bàn cái hǎo / Jiù bǎ nǐ bào láo,' which means 'I don't know how to love / Just hold you tight.' This vulnerability is further emphasized by the narrator's admission of not knowing how to handle such profound feelings. The lyrics also touch on the transformative power of love, with the narrator willing to change and grow for their partner, as expressed in 'Yī xiē yī xiē wéi nǐ gǎI biàn / Yī tiān yī tiān wéi nǐ wán měI,' meaning 'Changing bit by bit for you / Perfecting day by day for you.'

Cultural references to the night sky and the Milky Way ('Ràng yín hé shǎn yào yè kōng de měI yī jiǎo') add a poetic layer to the song, symbolizing the vast and infinite nature of their love. The recurring theme of light and warmth in the darkness ('Woo bù pà tiān zài hēI / Wēn nuǎn tì nǐ zhǔn bèi') signifies the comfort and security the narrator finds in their relationship. The song beautifully captures the essence of love as a powerful, life-altering force that brings meaning and purpose to one's existence.
