Beijing

Postcrossing card from Briseis showing Qianxiwachang Hutong, traditional Beijing Residence, China. Beijing reminded me of Katie Melua's Song (from the album Piece by Piece, 2005).

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact,
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die.

We are twelve billion light years from the edge,
That's a guess,
No-one can ever say it's true
But I know that I will always be with you.

I'm warmed by the fire of your love everyday
So don't call me a liar,
Just believe everything that I say

There are six BILLION people in the world
More or less
and it makes me feel quite small
But you're the one I love the most of all ...
