December 26, 2019 at 4:31 AMHere's my translation. I love this show so much.
Thousand years to wait,
years to wait oh oh
Thousand years to wait,
Won't regret no oh!
Who's that by my side? Said:
"love you till i die!"
Just with these words few
I knew it was you!
Heartbreak in rain
Tears flow in wind
Dream spun threads
Feel far away
ahhhh ahhhh ahhhh
west lake waters - like my tears
i will turn into
a fireball with you!
ah ah ah
Thousand years to wait,
years to wait oh oh
Thousand years to wait,
no regrets no oh!
Thousand years to wait,
years to wait oh oh
Thousand years to wait!

December 25, 2019 at 10:34 AMReally, tones and accent training are something you gain with speech and listening i.e. as a habit ; not by grammar.
Grammar is like a spinal column it structures the body of your sentences but does not fill them out for you.

December 25, 2019 at 10:33 AMI advise not to fixate on tones; you will pick them up with oral practice they will become second nature. Yes, they matter, yes, you are right to want to pronounce correctly, including the tone. Thing is, as a non-native speaker you will make mistakes inevitably. By fixating on this comparatively minor issue you're "failing to see the forest for the trees". You definitely shouldn't be trying to figure out in speech by tones whether it is 老师 老是 or 老实。 That would be clarified by the context words and sentences around it. When somone says "their/they're/there" in English you hopefully don't wonder which they mean, and instead are thinking, rightly, about the larger context which will make the ambiguous word's exact meaning clear. So also should you do in Chinese.

December 29, 2019 at 9:30 AMWould you do a sketch called "Black or white?" about a mixed race person?
Probably not, huh.
Hopefully you can see now Why this is in bad taste.
