English (Full Version)
The song of midnight cried out and from that day on, I've truly…

After the twilight turned a translucent red the stars lay in the sky and played their twinkling sounds

Without even being told to be more open already my tears brought my feelings along and became a small sea at my feet

The sky doesn't move, it's just the sun that comes and goes The ground doesn't move, it's just you who walk upon it

The song of midnight cried out I truly hate being alone more than anything and from that day on, I learned the hard way of what was important

Ah, all I need is being able to scoop up happiness with a tiny spoon so long as I have someone to share it with

The days I pretended to be strong come back to me It’s like showing my heart in glasswork, a fleeting dream Throwing purity around is scary We’ve all pretended we’ve had it at one point in this opaque world we live in

I walked, dragging a heavy freedom along When the farewell came, it looked like the sky was leaving

The rain of goodbye muttered, and my umbrella was open And now opened kindness will always be in my chest I haven’t given up on the hope that we will meet again I made a promise to the people who sleep with stardust on their beds

It was only a matter of showing some kinds to the boys hugging their knees in the season-less town but even so…

Those children, so sensitive to the cold, gaze upon the stars.

The song of midnight cried out I truly hate being alone more than anything I hate to go on living completely alone…

Ah, all I need is being able to scoop happiness with a tiny spoon so long as I have someone to share it with

The song of midnight cried out I was truly, truly… lonely Even if I were to be erased by the sun's radiance.

Now come! Let's lead the way, or stand shoulder to shoulder or just sing out! Whichever is fine, as long as you're here to share it with me
