Lyrics:

[English]

the afternoon on the go

the days we embrace

inevitably everything comes to an end

the sparkle we once shared

the butterflies we once felt

we leave it all behind somewhere

and that's okay

that's fine

til the day we could laugh together like that

whether the sky is dawning or dusking

we're gonna transcend them all

things change, and we can do nothing about it

just letting go, feeling lighter, and becoming filled

becoming filled

the moment we get the pleasure it's gone

but that's almost all we've been chasing for

been misusing the word "love"

are we now aware of its true meaning?

it's tragic to love someone just to be loved

rain of blessings on our dried-out hearts

whether the sky is clearing or getting stormy

we're gonna cherish them all

though i have nothing, i give you everything

just letting go, feeling lighter, and becoming filled

opening up our hearts to shine

it brightens up the darkness and shows us the way

in time, we will be connected beyond life and death

we're both letting go, feeling lighter, and becoming filled

whether the sky is clearing or getting stormy

we're gonna cherish them all

though i have nothing, i give you everything

we're both letting go, feeling lighter, and becoming filled
