Hitomi Wo Tojite (Close Your Eyes)

Every morning I’d awake, you naked beside me
I’d feel your warmth, but your back was always cold

Stop smiling so bitterly, open that serious curtain
the morning light is dazzling, but you chase it and me away every day

That one day, you saw me cry, my tears shining in the setting sun
Even if I wish I wouldn’t, my heart, my body, they remember the warmth of your shoulder

Your love forever
Close your eyes, let me paint your picture, even if my heart
becomes deserted through the changing seasons, this much would do me good

One day, I would no longer be able to feel you here
It’ll be okay if I sleep on my side, hugging the pain inside

That one night, I wished upon a star as we both searched for the light
The twinkle faded, but in my heart, my body, you still shine

I wish forever
Close your eyes, let me paint your picture, even if the world should
abandon me, this would help me get through it all

Your love forever
Close your eyes, let me paint your picture, even if my heart
becomes deserted through the changing seasons, this much would do me good

I found you as I searched my memorories, and it’s okay
because you gave me the strength I need to get over the things I lost
That’s what you gave to me
