A Certainty

Romantic Japanese song by Kazumasa Oda (小田和正) entitled Tashika-na Koto (A Certainty).

****************

I was looking up at the sky after the rain among the people walking by
I'm sure I never noticed the smallest happiness because I couldn't bear the sadness

As time goes by, can I love you? Can I really protect you?
As I looked up at the sky I thought, what can I do for you now?

Never forget, because no matter when, I'll surely be beside you
That's why we're here now
Being blown by the same wind, living in the same time

Like looking out for yourself and quietly thinking of someone else
When you're sad, don't be alone, don't go far away from me

I'd rather trust than doubt, even if the wounds in my heart never go away
Let's go looking for the things we've lost, I'm sure we'll find them someday

The most important things aren't the special occasions
They're the days I spend gazing at you
Feeling the way I do now

There's something I still haven't said to you
It's that, since the day we met, I've always loved you

Are you looking at the sky? Are you listening to the wind?
We can never return here
But don't ever think of that as a sad thing

The most important things aren't the special occasions
They're the days I spend gazing at you
Feeling the way I do now

Never forget, no matter how much time passes, because I'll surely be beside you
That's why we're here now
Being blown by the same wind, living in the same time

No matter when, I'll surely be beside you
