Children of the Sun’s My Daughter, Your Highness Chinese Lyrics English Meaning
The songwriter offers snapshots of their daily life, like a forgotten baby bottle on the car roof. Chou drafts a line where his daughter says, ‘I’ll take care of you when I’m old,’ showing her sweet and demanding nature. He paints a world ruled by Frozen soundtracks and requests for him to dress as an elf for school pickup.
