Can you sing for me? What should I sing?
Anything. I want to hear your voice.
Okay…
And you? Can you sing for me?
Yes…

괜찮은거니 어떻게 지내는거야 나 없다고또 울고 그러진
않니 매일 꿈속에 찾아와 재잘대던 너 요즘은 왜 보이질
않는거니 혹시 무슨 일이라도 생겼니 내게 올 수 없을
만큼 더 멀리 갔니 니가 없이도 나 잘 지내 보여 괜히
너 심술나서 장난친거지 비라도 내리면 구름뒤에 숨어서
니가 울고 있는건 아닌지
걱정만 하는 내게 제발 이러지마 볼 수 없다고 쉽게
널 잊을수 있는 내가 아닌걸 잘 알잖아
혹시 니가 없어 힘이 들까봐 니가 아닌 다른 사랑
만날 수 있게 너의 자릴 비워둔 것이라면 그 자린
To Heaven

Are you alright? How are you these days?
You aren’t crying because I’m not there, are you?
You used to come in my dreams every night
But why can’t I see you these days?
Did something happen?
Did you go far away so that you can’t come to me?
Are you mad because I try to look like I’m fine without you?
So you are just playing a joke on me as well?
When it is raining, are you hiding behind a cloud and crying?
All I do is worry about you, please don’t do this to me
You know how I can’t easily forget you just because I can’t see you
In case I was having a hard time without you
I kept your place empty so that I can find a new love
But all I can fill in that place is despair
Don’t be sorry; even if you are far way
Your image from before is stilled filled up inside of me
It won’t take that long until we meet in that place where there’s no goodbye
Until than, just wait for me a little longer
You aren’t crying because I’m not there, are you?
You used to come in my dreams every night
But why can’t I see you these days?
Did something happen?
Did you go far away so that you can’t come to me?
Are you mad because I try to look like I’m fine without you?
So you are just playing a joke on me as well?
When it is raining, are you hiding behind a cloud and crying?
All I do is worry about you, please don’t do this to me
You know how I can’t easily forget you just because I can’t see you
In case I was having a hard time without you
I kept your place empty so that I can find a new love
But all I can fill in that place is despair
Don’t be sorry; even if you are far way
Your image from before is stilled filled up inside of me
It won’t take that long until we meet in that place where there’s no goodbye
Until than, just wait for me a little longer

Thank you..
If there is anything I should be thankful for having bittersweet memories, it is the reminder that once, a melody was sung for me. If it is in anticipation of the future that seems so impossible to triumph over, I am still grateful that we had the past. And I believed him when he said his name means a road to heaven. I still do.
