Even if the whole world
Forgets you,
I’ll still be here, laughing beside you,
Saying, “We’ve aged, haven’t we?”
You don’t have to be afraid
Just being you is enough
Counting the new wrinkles, right here by your side
Even if our lives
Are but a cheaply priced novel,
I have no intention of selling it short
We’ll rewrite it, time and time again
Everyone leaves their love to fate
Wandering forever in its grasp
I’ll continue writing beyond
The end of this story
To face the truth,
Sometimes you have to be alone
Even knowing it’s a mistake,
There’s a story I want to keep painting
Ah,
In this worthless script
And this trivial drama,
I want to stay involved forever
Ah,
Because there’s a me that’s saved
By your awkward expressions and every word
Even if the sparkle of those days
Lies dormant now,
We’ve aged, haven’t we?
I’ll still laugh with you tomorrow
Don’t be sad,
Just being you is what I want
Counting the passing seconds, right here by your side
The ceaseless rain of tears
Divides life into chapters like a novel,
Marking each stage
Even knowing it’s foolish,
There’s a story we must continue to struggle through
Ah,
On that day, standing still,
I’ll now firmly push
That unreliable back
Ah,
Because there’s a you who smiled
At my silly expressions and words
Ah,
In this worthless script,
And this trivial drama,
I want to stay involved forever
Ah,
Because there’s a me that’s saved
By your awkward expressions and every word
Ah,
On that day, standing still,
I’ll now firmly push
That unreliable back
Ah,
Because there’s a you who smiled
At my silly expressions and words
Even if the whole world
Forgets you,
I’ll still be here, laughing beside you,
Saying, “We’ve aged, haven’t we?”
You don’t have to be afraid
Just being you is enough
Counting the new wrinkles, right here by your side
