because i love you

Song: because i love you
Translation of: 好きだから (Japanese – because I love you)
Original Artist: 加藤いづみ

Is this where we part? “I’ll see you around.”
And your figure makes its way through the crowd

Far away from me, God only can see
If your eyes are shedding silent tears like mine

Every word you whispered, one by one
Haunts my every thought
If only you could give me back my heart…

Despite the many times that we were happy
Desolating thoughts were raining down on us
Still I hope that we are somehow meant to be
And I won’t spend a lifetime without you

There’s so much more that I still want to tell you
Hidden in my heart and only because
I’m in love with you, I’m in love with you
Head over heels in love with you

Is this where I turn—”Were you even real?”
—when all I want is to go running after you?

But as the winter wind starts howling through my veins
Any hope I had seems petty and inane

Of every single smile you sent my way
Mere memories remain
If only I could find our dreams again…

I know you won’t be here to save my world
No matter how I try, no matter how I fight
I know I shouldn’t cry although we said good-bye
And I will spend a lifetime without you

I wonder if you knew the kind of feelings
I hid inside my heart and only because
I’m in love with you, I’m still in love with you
Still head over heels in love with you
