By your side,
I lost myself in the moonlight.
My heart
asked, "Who holds your heart?"
Will they be lost?
Will they move on?
The days and moments that passed by?
Will they be forgotten?
Will they drift away?
Those beautiful sights that passed by?
After I asked,
I felt an unbearable pain...
By your side,
I lost myself in the moonlight.
My heart
asked, "Who holds your heart?"

The central narrative explores the fragile nature of memories, questioning whether time, past moments, and beautiful visions will eventually drift away or be forgotten. Upon confronting their emotional reality and asking for love, the rejection leads to a poignant realization of inner pain.
