1.Over something small, I lost something precious
2.The cold ring shone back at me
3.“I only need the present,” I said, but that wasn’t true
4.The door leading to you vanished without a sound5.
6.The more I wish for your happiness, the more selfish I become
7.Even so, I want to keep you here—I always feel that way
8.When someone’s wish comes true, that girl is crying
9.And still, the sound of the door won’t come10.
11.I wanted to be the one person who could heal you, someone needed by everyone
12.But maybe I held myself back a little too much13.
14.Wishing for my own happiness—
15.that isn’t selfish, is it?
16.If so, I want to pull you close and hold you tight
17.By the time my tears dry, that girl is crying
18.And still, the ground beneath us won’t dry19.
20.The more I wish for your happiness, the more selfish I become
21.You never hold me back—that’s always the case
22.When someone’s wish comes true, that girl is crying
23.Not everyone’s wishes can come true at the same time24.
25.As this small planet keeps turning, kindness takes root
26.I want to hold you once more, as gently as I can
