Lyric

The tightness in my chest

After all those long days in the hospital

Suddenly disappeared

Before I knew it

I was looking down at myself

Lying asleep in that bed

Beside me stood my beloved family

Everyone was crying

And seeing them there

All the kindness they had given me through the years

Overflowed inside my heart

And I could not stop my tears

It seems that somehow

I had died

I understood it naturally

I wonder if my voice can still reach you

Even though I’m gone

Surprisingly, I’m not suffering at all

There are still many things I worry about

But right now

Please let me say only this

Thank you so much

For everything until today

There will surely be nights ahead

When loneliness feels too heavy to bear

You may call my name

And cry when no answer comes back

But please

Don’t blame yourselves

Until my very last moment

It was your smiles

That kept me alive

Even if you can no longer see me

That doesn’t mean our love disappears

If somewhere in the scent of the wind

You suddenly feel my presence

I would be happy

I still wish I could stay here

Just a little longer

Watching over all of you

But before I begin this journey

Please let me say it once more

I love you

And truly… thank you

I can’t tell you not to cry

Because those tears

Are proof of how deeply you loved me

But please

Don’t be afraid of tomorrow

I want you to smile again

Just the way you always did

Don’t leave only sadness

In the place where I once was

Hold the warmth of the days we shared

Like a small light in your heart

And someday

When you finally reach the end

Of your own long journey

Even if we are apart

My heart will always stay beside you

This isn’t goodbye

It’s a “thank you”

Until the day we meet again

Thank you for everything

I love you

Until we meet again

Thank you
