North Wing

Love is a mystery...
...that's calling me
Love is a mystery...
...with its incomprehensible power
 
Like the scene in a movie,
...I'm going to board the plane, leaving everything behind
Passing the "North Wing" terminal on my way to you,
...tonight I depart alone
 
I had once given up on you
Constantly crying had given me a pause to rethink
The city lights look further and further away...
...as I watch them from above
 
Like in a dream state...
...wandering,
...I'm flying across the night...
...on a midnight flight, chasing you
Love is a mystery
With its wings spread out,
...the plane crosses the shiny sea
I'm a little nervous
 
The date will soon change,
...ending the yesterday that has nothing but pains
The misty city where you live...
...is awaiting beneath the clouds
 
Fallen asleep, my romantic dream...
...is interrupted as I wake up to find myself...
...in the unfamiliar sky
The midnight flight feels dreamy
Love is a mystery
Saving the pleasantries for later,
...I quickly jump into your arms
This is my reply to you~
 
Love is a mystery
You've been calling me here
Love is a mystery...
...with its incomprehensible power
Love is a mystery
Our hearts are bound by its magic
Love is a forever unsolvable mystery
It enabled me to keep holding onto you in my heart
