Lyric

Letter in the Drawer

Tera Kira

Deep in the drawer, I found a letter hidden away

Your familiar writing, it’s blurring as I read today

"I hope you find happiness," that final line you wrote

I traced it with my fingers, as the tears began to float

The very first spring, since the day you went away

The cherry blossoms bloom, in the same old gentle way

Those ordinary days, we used to share and see

I finally realized, they were filled with love for me

I’m sorry that I couldn't be honest with my heart

I turned my back away, and let the distance start

I wish I’d said "Thank you," just one more time to you

Though I can’t reach your hand, I’ll say it till it's true

Watch over me, from the other side of the sky

The life that you protected, I’ll make it shine and fly

I’ll give it everything, with all the strength I’ve got

So don't you worry now, I’ll dry the tears I brought

The baton that you passed, is warm within my soul

Living in my heart, and making me feel whole

Looking in the mirror, in the face that I see

There’s a glimpse of you, staring back at me

Even when I’m weak, and I want to run and hide

Your strength is there to push me, walking by my side

When the time finally comes, for me to leave this place

And I make my way to find, the light of your embrace

I’ll find you first of all, in that land so far and wide

"I lived my life so well," I’ll say it with such pride

Hear my voice, let it reach where you are now

To be your child, was a blessing, and I’ll take a bow

I’ll turn this heavy sorrow, into power for the way

Walking to the future, that we promised on that day

To the most beloved one, in the whole wide world, it’s true

"Thank you" forever, let it echo back to you

Rest now, in a peaceful sleep

Until the day we meet again
