Close to you-english.ver
The flowers of the new
And laughter of the past
They're beautiful like you
Beauty unsurpassed
Gone with a whisper
You fall asleep like death
Breaking through the earth
Your smile shines again


My empty gratitude
Another empty thank you
I finally learnt regret
From words I’ve always said
Never meant to speak to hurt
Yet it hurt to put in words
Goodbye wherever you are
Goodbye unbroken heart

In truth I want to feel the truth I want to see
I'm trying to embrace your drifting heart and smile
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes
I keep on looking forward at you hoping that your light will never pass me by
I wonder what the stars that sparkle in your eyes are hiding from my mind
Hiding from my open heart and from your open heart
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected
Close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, forever
I will find my way
You may never answer back my call
But you smile back at me with grace And everything remains the same
This pain I’ll soon awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears



A shape of broken line
Will never be the same
It'll never find new life
As a body of remains
A soul without a form
Endlessly it'll chase
But will my broken heart find another place?
In truth I want to feel the truth I'll never see
I'm trying to erase how far we've walked in miles
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears as I look up at the sky
I keep on looking forward at it hoping that I'll find you soon enough in time
I wonder if the stars that sparkle in my eyes will eventually subside
Hiding from my endless heartbeat
From my endless heartbeat
Together, you and I will always be alive, committed, close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again
Then maybe I will find a way
I can never travel back in time, but they smile back at me, those days
And everything remains the same
This pain I’ll soon awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears


Replaying time again, replaying time again
Repeating time again, repeating time again
Reflected in my heart, reflected in my heart
Your never-ending laughter

Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears...

Can’t you feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes?
I keep on looking forward at you hoping that in time your light will pass me by
Now I know the stars that sparkle in your eyes are guiding me to light
Guiding to my open heart and to your open heart
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
Time will never hold my tears or hold my feelings down they pour like silent rain
All the colors forming back the life I knew when all remained the same
Somehow in a finite time, this time I’ll find my way out
And I see I've barely reached you
And your heart
