After the Tears
I stand between the sky and the earth, dwarfed by their vastness
When I awoke, I had been praying alone for the morning to come again today [1]
For who's sake, I didn't know but then... yes, I met you
I've been holding back my tears, is it all right to shed them now?
Say, if anything should happen, say, could you stay smiling for me
Like you always do...?
Both the twinkling stars and the moonlight can shine because there's night
Your sleeping visage showed me that in the times when I felt I couldn't sleep alone
I now prayed intensely that the dream would never end
I've been holding back my tears, is it all right to shed them now?
Say, if anything should happen, say, could you stay smiling for me
Like you always do...?
I've been holding back my tears, is it all right to shed them now?
Say, if anything should happen, say, could you stay smiling for me
Like you always do...?
