I still remember you

With a sleepless face

The tenderness in the smile

And summer behind your back

It was almost morning

(Uh, ah, uh)

You told me: See you later

(Uh, ah, uh)

You left slowly

(Uh, ah, uh)

Turning into a memory

My hands can't forget you

My eyes miss your gaze

And your sugar‑sweet skin on my lips

Turns salty

Nostalgia is inevitable

The days by your side hurt me

And I won't accept losing you

With arms crossed

All the time that has passed

It hurts me deeply

And thinking of your return

It feels insufficient

To me, nothing is eternal

(Uh, ah, uh)

And anyone who is usually with you

(Uh, ah, uh)

Nothing more than to save me

(Uh, ah, uh)

And to believe that I'm still alive

My hands can't forget you

My eyes miss your gaze

And your sugar‑sweet skin on my lips

Turns salty

Nostalgia is inevitable

The days by your side hurt me

And I won't accept losing you

With arms crossed

(Music)

My hands can't forget you

My eyes miss your gaze

And your sugar‑sweet skin on my lips

Turns salty

Nostalgia is inevitable

The days by your side hurt me

And I won't accept losing you

With arms crossed
