A silver crescent moon flutters down into my parched heart
In this night without any moonlight, you tell me "you can walk even alone"
Those words you gave to me, with kindness and warmth
Turned the tears back into a smile on my face that was hung in dispair
When I'm sad, if I close my eyes,
You're by my side
You refused to show your tears as you bid farewell
And you gave me your same kind smile
I will never forget that warmth
I smile even as the tears flow
Even if this road comes to an end
I'll unfurl my wings for you
The broad back that disappears into the fallen drops of the moon
Teach me once more why I keep walking
I can keep walking without turning back
Because you are always by my side
May my tears never spill over again
Because I have decided not to go back
Because that is the promise that we made that day
Even if the tears gather, the rain will wash them away
Because if I ever get to see you again
I want to be able to tell you that I surpassed you
