Do you still think of me?

Me, who used to make you struggle, sad and hurt
Me, who thoughtlessly called you because I was drunk

My days have become too long
More than the times I spent with you back then
Though the minute hand of the clock goes around just the same

I will be living like that after time passes
I’ll meet someone else and say I love you
I’ll cast away the words I couldn’t say and my sadness
But as I look at myself like this
The person who made me happily smile more than anyone in the world
That person can’t be you anymore
So I stopped in place like a fool

The sadness is still there
Your image is still the same in me
I am silently, quietly looking at your photo

The small photo is smiling a little bit
In those times that seem so strange to me now
The me who is looking at you is not me anymore

I will be living like that after time passes
I’ll meet someone else and say I love you
I’ll cast away the words I couldn’t say and my sadness
But as I look at myself like this
The person who made me happily smile more than anyone in the world
That person can’t be you anymore
So I stopped in place like a fool

The dust called you, no matter how much I brush it off, it won’t get brushed off
No matter how much I erase you, the stain called you won’t be erased, won’t disappear
I spill and spill you out but you don’t empty out
No matter how much I run and run, the milestone called you won’t come to an end
I’m trapped in a maze called you so I can’t do anything

Time has stopped after I let you go
I’m dying, trapped in regret, the tears won’t stop
I take out the ring we both shared
As I follow and walk through the past memories
As I walk, I see you and I, both smiling brightly
How are you? Are you really living well without feeling anything?
Or are you in pain? Can’t we meet again?

I will be living like that after time passes
I’ll meet someone else and say I love you
I’ll cast away the words I couldn’t say and my sadness
But as I look at myself like this
The person who made me happily smile more than anyone in the world
That person can’t be you anymore
So I stopped in place like a fool
