One Liter of Tears

Its’ not how long we held each other’s hand
Its’ not the spring that we wish to come
But the verdant flowers bloom in each other’s heart.
Like a million smiles that brought in our eyes.
Those fade away by one liter of tears.

The hour’s tracks like days across the ages
like a story in every page that turns into yellow.
As the music will never keep playing,
And the songs keep fading to fade.
Can’t you see the time is as endless as forever?
Why love been trying in tears to disappear

The falling leaves fly on a windy day.
Like these love that was forgotten by the time
to my one last cry, one liter of tears
So here I, is something I hide inside
I ‘m in the world where I hide my heart.

Through a hundred million faces that I see
In this world so narrow and wide
looking for the reason that things must change,
But love would fade like summer into fall.
Like a river that flows upstream.

Like a million stars sparkling in the sky
one liter of tears glistened in my eyes,
And all the hopes were faded in black and white.
I cried, I feel alone, I was gone.
Frozen, inside without your touch, without your smile.
