Spring Left Behind in the Little Tower

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

The wind pushes open the little tower's window again

The flowers in the old courtyard bloom overnight in my dream

I fold my memories into a long, long river

Yet I cannot find a boat that will take me back

[Pre-Chorus]

Everything I once held has become an echo

Only the moonlight is still as cold as before

[Chorus]

The little tower still hears the spring breeze

Yet the city in my heart keeps its gates shut

I want to ask the clouds drifting past the window

Have you brought back a lamp for an old friend

The little tower still hears the spring breeze

It cannot blow yesterday back or scatter the pain

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 2]

The shadow on the railing slowly grows old

The people in my dreams remain in different autumns

At last I have learned to stop questioning the flowing water

Only murmuring one name softly for a long, long time

[Pre-Chorus]

Everything I once held has become an echo

Only the moonlight is still as cold as before

[Chorus]

The little tower still hears the spring breeze

Yet the city in my heart keeps its gates shut

I want to ask the clouds drifting past the window

Have you brought back a lamp for an old friend

The little tower still hears the spring breeze

It cannot blow yesterday back or scatter the pain

[Bridge]

If I no longer get to write the story's ending

May someone cherish ordinary sunshine on my behalf

When worldly splendor recedes into a thin sheet of paper

Only then do I see the lightest tenderness in this world

[Final Chorus]

The little tower still hears the spring breeze

Yet the city in my heart keeps its gates shut

I want to ask the clouds drifting past the window

Have you brought back a lamp for an old friend

The little tower still hears the spring breeze

It cannot blow yesterday back or scatter the pain

[Outro]

The moon before the window slowly passes over the little tower

I let my sigh drift softly away with the long night
