Reykjavík

Please keep your promise, to fly here and break the ice for me
Being amidst Iceland's scenic beauty does not kill my dependence
The dust of time has buried that love
But the remnants of the vow were never cleared
While you have talked about
Resuming the old scene the next year
 
(I) walk through the familiar city under snow
The nordic soundtrack is clever and calm
Submerged into my music player
Among the melodies the blue whale hums the laments of an orphan
Like this city, unhurried and unblemished
A troubled pedestrian like me carries unneeded sentimentality
 
There is a light in the arctic
You said you would keep it and we would then see it together
If I ever despaired
Thinking of it would release everything
This light, violet in translucent green
Never blossomed in the heavens
Just like the distant lands we could have reached together but never did
Glaciers unvisited; volcanoes unventured
 
Or am I trapped inside my fantasy
Unquenched passion delivered across ten years
Like a hot spring flowing into a frozen vault
The war between fire and ice is won by the one with patience; the frosted, former romance shall unfreeze
Perhaps missing the date was your plan all along
Keeping the Iceland date was just due to my inability to see through
Simply not all lovers long to reunite and revisit their dreams
(Not) all lovers long to reunite to repair the faults
If lovers could all reunite
Love songs would have much less excellent material
Come, take a step; the sooner one gives up, the sooner one prospers
After the date is missed, I will, I will take it easy
And let the longing lay itself to rest under the deepest snow
 
There is a light in the arctic
You said you would keep it and we would then see it together
If I ever despaired
Thinking of it would release everything
This light, violet in translucent green
Never blossomed in the heavens
Just like the distant lands we could have reached together but never did
Glaciers unvisited; volcanoes unventured
 
Maybe I was too arrogant and vain
The rendezvous in Iceland was merely a misunderstanding
Never cared to pay attention when listening
The city the lover said we will return to suddenly changed its name
It is no use to blame fate for the failed encounter
(I) never had the talent to read the depth of others' hearts
 
Please keep your promise, to fly here and look at the stars with me
The ancient scenery of Fukushima emanates purity within the destruction
Who can, for yesterday's affection,
Journey again after ten years?
In the ruins of time
one searches for the untarnished evidence of love
