Even now, I remember
the dream I had the day you left on your trip
Your cheeks...following the tears,
I stretched out my hand and you disappeared inside the dark.

Suddenly, I awaken
A dozing, illuminated reality
Within people stained red, I found you

Now, I understand
the meaning of the promise we exchanged
A shining, short-lived shooting star
I gaze up at the faraway sky and smile

Each time my eyes shake, I remember
Your eyes...though I gaze at them, they were looking far away

Now, I understand
the meaning of the promise we exchanged
A shining, short-lived shooting star
I gaze up at the faraway sky and smile

Now, I understand
the meaning of the promise exchanged that day
A shining, short-lived shooting star
I gaze up at the faraway sky and smile
