The words “I love you” from you are sadder than “goodbye.”
You don’t need to say anything more—so please, stop this night.
We met as naturally as breathing, without a single doubt.
Days spent hurting and being hurt, believing that pain itself was love.
Lowering our voices, sharing secrets that belonged only to us—
With every new secret, I’d force a smile while weeping inside.
I wanted to dream the same dreams, yet we’re drifting onto different paths.
If we couldn’t choose when we met, then at least… stop this night.
It would have been enough just to gaze at your broad back.
No matter how fiercely I loved you, I couldn’t see the answer.
If you want to end this, just give me five seconds.
Close your eyes, take a deep breath—in that moment, I’ll let it all go.
The words “I love you” from you are sadder than “goodbye.”
You don’t need to say anything more—so please, stop this night.
I have no regrets about the sweet memories of the past.
I have no desire to cling to a tangible future.
I thought we were dreaming the same dreams, but we were walking different paths.
If we couldn’t choose when to part, then at least… this night…
The words “I love you” from you are sadder than “goodbye.”
You don’t need to say anything more—so please, stop this night.
Please, I beg you—stop this night.
