The wind blows softly as drips of water glisten;
The same old streets looked somehow different.
But the fact I can find this scenery so beautiful,
Isn’t just because of the lighting,
But because you’re smiling here beside me.
Our distance has shrunk 1%, but things still feel so uncertain.
Can I finally release these feelings that I’ve kept sealed away in my pocket?
From atop a footbridge, I look past you to catch a view of this city, just after the rain:
I saw us reflected there. Oh, time — please don’t stop now!
I forgot to close the door, so my true feelings showed their face;
They were waiting all this time for you to knock.
The sweat from my cup is bleeding into the coaster below.
Your feelings, in this moment,
Come flowing into me.
I feel the warmth transferred from your hand in mine — those warm fingertips.
I want to be wrapped in this seemingly transparent tenderness more and more!
I’m too clumsy… I couldn’t manage to express it, but that’s okay,
‘Cause I was finally able to realize this uncontrollable feeling.
If you’ll eventually have to let it go, why bother keeping it in the first place? That’s what I had always thought…
But it’s not like my heart’s made of glass… and I just can’t hold back any longer!
The answer was right before my very eyes!
The true lie I had told myself gently melts away.
I wonder why… even if I put a lid on it, it keeps flowing forth:
This heart.
I can’t wait any longer — they’re gonna spill out! My feelings form a whirlpool.
But even if their myriad colors mix, they’ll remain transparent… until someday—
When you ask me, “Where can our hearts be found?”
I wouldn’t have been able to answer before…
But now, I’m sure I’d say, “Within our tears.”
