Drifting Across the Ocean to See You
For you, I used half a year’s savings to drift across the ocean
For our reunion, I even rehearsed each and every breath I’d take
Words can never express even a fraction of my feelings
With this regret, tossing and turning at night, unable to sleep
Memories are slow to accumulate, but impossible to erase
In honor of our promise, even in the depths of despair, I will not cry
Familiar crevices in a strange city
Having been each other’s sigh, and comfort, no matter what the future brought
But then left behind, as you walk away, my sorrow runs rampant
Yearning to walk with you, come what may, forever at your side
Words can never express even a fraction of my feelings
With this regret, tossing and turning at night, unable to sleep
Memories are slow to accumulate, but impossible to erase
In honor of our promise, even in the depths of despair, I will not cry
Familiar crevices (familiar crevices) in a strange city (in a strange city)
Having been each other’s sigh, and comfort, no matter what the future brought
But then left behind, as you walk away, my sorrow runs rampant
But then left behind, as you walk away, my sorrow runs rampant
But then left behind, as you walk away, my sorrow runs rampant
But then left behind, as you walk away, my sorrow runs rampant
Yearning to walk with you, come what may, forever at your side
Yearning to walk with you, come what may, forever at your side
