TRANSLATION
When tonight comes to pass
you will appear and wake me up
That which I have dropped one by one
You lightly tread upon my tears

When that door opens, once again
the light will reach me
Afterwards, for all eternity
we'll live happily ever after

When the clock strikes twelve
in my dream, I open my eyes
Amongst the crowd of cheers
we are dancing together

I'm breathing (You will never know)
I'm alive (Everyone fails to love)
Can I believe in this much at least?

Nothing lasts forever, Nothing really matters

Because the road to finding me is perilous
You must be having trouble
Someday, as I'm smiling,
I will fall asleep in your arms

I can never leave (I will never know)
For you might not be able to find me (Everyone tells me so)
For this wait might just turn into seafoam*
