The light was gently swaying
Far beyond the silent sky
Even your smile faded slow
In dreams I knew would never fly
Holding a torn letter tight
Swallowing words I couldn't say
I never said goodbye to you
That answer lost along the way
Your voice, your touch, they feel like dreams
But you're still here inside of me
If I could go back to that day
I’d tell you “thank you” face to face
This love I couldn’t reach became
A petal drifting into space
Do we still gaze at the same stars?
Even inside your silent dreams?
I keep on singing quietly
In every pulse you cannot hear
I searched for you, but time moved on
Only your fragile warmth lives on
If someday fate brings us again
I’ll give you warmth, not words I send
If tears and sorrow stay with me
I’ll call them love until the end
Until my voice can reach your soul
I'll stay right here and keep you whole
I couldn’t say goodbye to you
But “thank you” still wraps around me
I send a wish to falling stars
Until the day we meet and see
Until the day we meet and see
