Nothing happened today
Nothing important, anyway
I took the same old streets
To open the same old doors
I smiled a bit today
Then felt sad again
I wonder how many more times I’ll get to see your smile…
That’s what suddenly came to mind
No one will ever see this documentary film
But I’m still spinning the reel, all alone
Preserving the light therein
Surely, it will shine a light on this heart I cannot hide
Revealing that I’m about to cry
Every time you smile
I sang of hopes and dreams
Even without any background music
Happiness could be heard faintly in the distance
So I tried to listen carefully
Even if sorrow
Will take many things from us someday
Just think of it as a rehearsal
For being able to smile in the next scene
Wilted petals dirty the table below
Despite the fact that all things have their end
We try to try to cut ourselves free from the reality
But beyond a doubt, there is life there
Precious life
That I witnessed with you
No one will ever see this documentary film
But I’m still spinning the reel, all alone,
Keeping all your many smiles in one place
Surely, it will shine a light on this heart I cannot hide
Revealing that I’m about to cry
Every time I see your precious smile
