Where am I going…?
Somewhere beyond the darkness, hiding my spilling tears.
My hope seems so distant, about to vanish.
Hoping to pull it back in, I keep running onward.
A tale of longing is spun,
Dashing through time,
Sticking in my heart like a thorn.
I found a light within the twinkling darkness,
And believed it to be Happiness.
I was dreaming of a future, a reality
That was beautifully out of reach.
As sad memories piled up, I was left quivering alone.
The strength I touched, never knowing of love,
Was too bright and it slipped through my fingers.
But really, I’d known all along…
This wish sealed away points directly to the smile I want to protect.
I think only of you on this starry night.
I pause as I sense the morning coming.
Repeating illusions -of the past- are displayed there.
I divine where this endless journey is headed,
Though the card of truth remains face down.
Though I scream that I want to change,
I create a place to return within unchanging serenity.
Thinking just one moment would be enough,
I was searching for a warmth that would break through this building loneliness.
Beginnings surely come in an instant.
Thus revolutionary encounters
Are always brought upon us, no matter where we are.
If my love is to be tested,
I’ll gladly submit my everything.
This first desire opened up like a prayer
And I want to tell you those words right now!
As I light a fire to my abandoned weakness,
I’m led onward by your gaze.
I remember now, the unfaltering voice you had that day.
No matter what happens, I won’t let go. “I’ll be here by your side!”
More than anyone else, I was dreaming…
…of a future, a reality
That was beautifully out of reach.
As sad memories piled up, I was left quivering alone.
You taught me of love, so I’ll swear to you now,
I’ll never lose my way again!
Really, I’d known all along…
This wish held aloft points directly to the smile I want to protect.
A shining tomorrow awaits us.
So come, take my hand under this starry sky!
