Himawari

The soft trail across the blue sky
I hope you'll always chase it
We're not together, but I wish
Our days will never disappear
The sunflower reaches towards the sky
I wonder if I'll be able to fly to your side

The same old road home as always, your tiny hand in mine
Your face when you laughed innocently at trivial things

Sometimes I said things that weren't in my heart, like "I hate you"
Although It was that sort of clumsy love
You always accepted me

The sunflowers are beckoning, the scent of early summer
Wafts across the beach
The sun's shining almost too brightly
The memories float on the wide ocean
To the other side we saw together
Will I be able to go there someday?

I just can't get to sleep, there are so many things I want to tell you
The park we always used to stop in is beginning to turn colors

My left hand feels empty, the road home is unchanged
If you've been able to overcome that loneliness
I'm still right here now

I remember that hill where we felt we could reach the sky
"Let's come again," we promised
As I look down on the town alone, it gets blurred
I watch you frame by frame

The soft trail across the blue sky
I hope you'll always chase it
We're not together, but I wish
Our days will never disappear
The sunflower reaches towards the sky
I wonder if I'll be able to fly to your side
