In the flickering memories of you
I’m always smiling
Even if I’m anxious about the memories
It’s always you who holds me
Even if the seasons change and we’re in different places
Our hearts will never change

Even if I’m anxious about the memories
It’s always you who holds me
Even if the seasons change and we’re in different places
Our hearts will never change

The Starry sky we’ve created
The joy filling between our trust
I feel it, we’ll be eternal
Every day is new, time with you always
