Like a child who has grown up, like a tree that is left aloneLook at someone’s world that is exhausted with lonelinessThey wanted it so bad but they couldn’t find itLook at the hidden scars of the ones who were pushed awayWe were born as lonersI’m waiting for someoneWho will walk with me though I’m slowHold my hand, draw a circleThat’s how much we’ve sharedMy whole heart is by youYour dream is by meTo live and to endureIf we’re together, it’ll be happierWe’ll be endlessly connectedCan’t live without youLike being pulled by the currentLike floating around the oceanI’m getting tired, but I don’t see paradiseI need your warmthIt tells me that I’m alrightI need you I need youHold my hand, draw a circleThat’s how much we’ve sharedMy whole heart is by youYour dream is by meTo live and to endureIf we’re together, it’ll be happierWe’ll be endlessly connectedCan’t live without youEven when I close my eyes, I feel your warmthYou’re my companion who will walk next to meYou give me comfort, I'm with youYou are the courage to make me live againYou lent me your shoulder, I believe in you because we can share in thisWhen we’re facing sadness, one more timeHold my hand, draw a circleThat’s how much we’ve sharedMy whole heart is by youYour dream is by meTo live and to endureIf we’re together, it’ll be happierWe’ll be endlessly connectedCan’t live without you

English Translation

Like a tree growing alone, facing barrenness Alone in an abandoned world, where no one pays attentionI embrace a bit of longing, but the end is always far awayThe injury from the fall can only be hidden by a large, cruel wallWe live in the name of lonelinessBut I'm waiting for someone with the same scars as meThat person to accompany meHold my hand, draw a circleAnd share the incompleteness of fateYour dream is by meMy whole heart is by youPersevere, be resoluteThen happiness will be closer to usOur hearts will be endlessly connectedcan’t live without youLike the rising and falling of the tideLike wandering away from the seaI'm getting tired, but I can't see the paradise at the endI need your warm and strong shouldersYou respond to my certain smileI need you I need youHold my hand, draw a circleAnd share the incompleteness of fateYour dream is by meMy whole heart is by youPersevere, be resoluteThen happiness will be closer to usOur hearts will be endlessly connectedcan’t live without youEven if I close my eyes, I feel you by my side Give me light, take me out of the past and comfort meNo matter how far the journey is, I'm with youIn your outstretched arms, I feel your considerationLet me have the courage to face all this sadness and sorrowNo matter how tired I am, I'll never go backHold my hand, draw a circleAnd share the incompleteness of fateYour dream is by meMy whole heart is by youPersevere, be resoluteThen happiness will be closer to usOur hearts will be endlessly connectedcan’t live without you
