Is this a dream my eyes are seeing?

Is this a story of hide-and-seek?

Is it playing without ever getting lost?

Is it the memory of unspoken desires?

Are these two shadows coming together as one?

Is it unfolding so beautifully?

Does it forget the distance as it reaches for the sky?

Does it blend together to live in love?

Is this a dream my eyes are seeing?

Is this a story of hide-and-seek?

Is it playing without ever getting lost?

If you pluck at flowers,

will their colors change?

If you scoop up water from the sea,

will the waves ever end?

If spoken out loud, will words

turn into sweet joy?

Even if our eyes fall asleep,

will our dreams ever stop?

Do not disappear,

searching for water right before us.

What is time without truly living?

Where will this life go?

Once again,

let the clouds join the blowing wind,

a gentle drizzle will fall,

beneath a new sky right here.

Is this a dream my eyes are seeing?

Is this a story of hide-and-seek?

Is it playing without ever getting lost?

Is it the memory of unspoken desires?

Are these two shadows coming together as one?

Is it unfolding so beautifully?
