Stargazing
2 o'clock in the morning at the railroad crossing, telescope on my shouldersThe radio tied to my waist said it wouldn't rain
After two minutes, you came with way too many thingsShall we begin watching the night sky and searching for falling stars?
To avoid being swallowed by the darkness,I earnestly considered holding your trembling hand that night.
Searching for things we can't see, we looked into the telescopeA number of new voices were born which sliced through the darknessTomorrow was calling for us, but we never gave it a proper responseWe chased the comet named "the present" together
Before I realized it, I began searching for somethingSomething like the meaning of happiness, or a place to store sadness
From the day I'm born until the moment I die I'll be searching for itBut for now, lets go watch the night sky and search for falling stars
I still remember all the things we found that day,and I still remember the pain of not holding your trembling hand
Hoping to know the things we didn't know, we peered into the telescopeHoping to illuminate the darkness with the faint, twinkling lightsAnd I still remember the pain we discovered through thisAlone, I still chase the comet named "the present" even now
And as we grow up, the number of things I want to tell you also increaseMy unaddressed letters have built up into a pile that's so large it looks like it would crumble
I'm doing well. And my worries are few.But there's one that I still remember even now.
While the rain the reports didn't predict showered on us, you looked like you were about to cryThat day when I didn't take your quivering hand
Searching for things I can see, a telescope on my shoulders againI run back through the silence and darknessAnd I still hold the pain at bayAlone, I still chase the comet named "the present" even now
Let's meet again one more time, a telescope on my shouldersAt 2 am at the railroad crossing like beforeShall we start watching the stars? Even if you don't arrive 2 minutes laterWe'll chase the comet called "The Present" together
