1.A sea breeze swept at my shoulders,
2.As I watched you running far ahead.
3.I didn’t say a word, simply watching,
4.Unable to reach where you are.5.
6.While in a classroom bathed in sunlight,
7.All the pictures hanging have smiles on their faces.8.
9.As each day passes ceaselessly, we remain unchanged,
10.And are reflected endlessly on the water’s calm surface.
11.Everything’s fine the way it is,
12.So take hold of your fleeting emotions,
13.And store them tightly away.14.
15.The waves roll in, then pull away,
16.As if measuring the distance between our hearts.
17.I want to know how you feel,
18.But when you touched me, I pushed your hand away.19.
20.The bubble that comes floating up looks about to burst,
21.Counting down to a challenging time for both of our dreams.22.
23.As each day passes ceaselessly, we remain unchanged,
24.And are merely mirages floating on the water’s calm surface.
25.I just want to protect…
26.But the words catch in my mouth,
27.And never reach across the twilight sea.28.
29.If we climb to the top of this hill,
30.These days we think nothing of will change somehow.
31.Light is bouncing off the water’s mirror-like surface,
32.And I can feel it now, especially.33.
34.As each day passes ceaselessly, we remain unchanged,
35.And are reflected endlessly on the water’s calm surface.
36.I want to be in that place again,
37.Seeing the shining smiles we always had.
38.So let’s promise to do just that.
