Shannan may refer to:
Shannan (simplified Chinese: 陕南; traditional Chinese: 陝南; pinyin: Shǎnnán) is a region referring to the southern portion of Shaanxi province, China. Its name derives from the abbreviation of the province (陕/陝), combined with its geographical location within the province (南).
Much of the region is south of the Qin Mountains as well, and for this reason it was for long part of varying kingdoms known as Shu, which also included parts of the Sichuan Basin. In the Yuan Dynasty, the area began to be merged with what is the Guanzhong Plain to form Shaanxi Province. This barrier has also created major differences in climate, cultural traditions and language between Shannan and the central and northern parts of Shaanxi, and thus there is some similarity between Shannan and Sichuan.
Shannan belongs to the group of Northern Chinese dialects, and forms a transition between the Sichuan and Northwest dialects. For the most part, the dialects of Shannan are divided into the Qinlong and Guanzhong dialects of Zhongyuan Mandarin. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties a large number of people migrating from Hubei, with those from the mountains especially bringing Southwestern Mandarin to the region.
Walking sadly through the park
I hear crying in the darkness
And thought I act like I cannot hear
Their situation is very clear
A girl who's trying to tell her guy
The time has come that they say good-bye
And his answer tears my heart apart:
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you
Walking with you through the park
Now it's my voice in the darkness
Just like the girl trying to tell her guy
I'm telling you we must say good-bye
I can't believe when I hear once more
The very words that were said before
Come from deep within your broken heart:
(His voice echoes in the dark
His voice echoes in the dark)
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you
I'll give you one night
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
Love ain't gonna let you
I'll get you one more night
Give me tonight
Give me tonight
Give me tonight...
His voice echoes in the darkness
[4x]
Give me tonight
Then if you don't wanna stay
Girl I'll just forget you
You'll see I'm right
You won't get to go away
