Since then, I wonder if we’ve managed to believe in something…
Beyond the night sky, tomorrow is already waiting.
Noticing someone’s voice, we kept low and out of sight;
The night wind blew across the park fence.
The hand you squeezed back, trying to tell me something,
Still tightens around a tender spot in my heart even now.
Since then, I wonder if we’ve managed to believe in something…
I gently open the window; there’s the scent of the winter wind.
I wonder if sadness is something that eventually fades away…
My sigh lingered briefly as a white mist, then vanished.
Even though I’d hesitate at every step of moving forward,
I used to think I could crush trivial conventions.
How much of what I said to you still remains?
It keeps spinning aimlessly in the deepest part of my heart.
I wonder if we are standing in the future we once imagined back then…
It seems things don’t always go as well as we’d hoped.
I wonder if the days will just go on like this forever…
A cloudless starry sky stretches out beyond the window.
Since then, I wonder if we’ve managed to believe in something…
Beyond the night sky, tomorrow is already waiting.
