And those melodies captivated the hearts of dreamy girls
No longer lost
Surrounded by eyes watching and cheering me on
All because the road to the future forced us to part ways
Down another couple of bottles, confiding in the microphone
And when I speak
It’s a dream I’ll carry for a lifetime
When I finally had everything, you were no longer with me
When I’ve reached maturity, I didn’t dedicate it to you
Is this love truly pitiful?
Down there under the spotlight, a fool is singing
Trying to smile, but my heart is breaking
Lost someone very important
Perhaps because I was too ambitious
I don’t feel joy inside
I remember the dark corner in the room
I remember watching the sunset with a golden girl
I just couldn’t hold your hand, keep your hand, pull you closer
Just a little longer
So I could stabilize my emotions
Maybe it’s time to end it, truly finish it
Memories are bringing back the pain
Countless stars out there watch over our fragile, clear faith
Why can’t it be like the lyrics wished for?
But why can’t it be like the arrogance on stage?
Now I walk this road alone
Still doing what I believe in, we have nothing left
The worst was the day you left, the truth made me suffer
Though I’ve gotten used to life behind the lights
I still can’t get used to the emptiness without you
I don’t feel joy inside
I remember the dark corner in the room
I remember watching the sunset with a golden girl
Even though I couldn’t hold your hand, keep your hand, pull you closer
Just a little longer
So I could stabilize my emotions
Maybe it’s time to end it, truly finish it
Memories are bringing back the pain
And that light shines brightly
Guiding me to find
A whole new world, but without you
Sorry for refusing to sit with you in so many cafes
Did I do something wrong to be afraid of the gossip?
I can only post pictures with you on close friends
I’m completely absorbed in work, and when you’re sad, I don’t even reach out
Please answer me
Please answer me
Is there still hope to be able to hold each other, my love?
Alright, fine, just this once
Just this once I’m allowed to be weak with this regretful memory
