I was lost, searching for a place where I could belong;
Now that I’ve made it here, I won’t give it up to anyone.
I stay here.
I’m gate-keeper.
I for you.
We’re not alone
All alone, I didn’t know anywhere I could stay;
I hugged my knees and cried, but that me is no more.
Feeling lonely I ran away and chased after someone in the distance.
When I found and embraced them, there was no need for words.
I let my long hair flow loose and took the wind at my cheek.
I stepped down on the earth, I puffed out my chest and stood.
I realized that we were in this together; I wasn’t the only one.
Everyone carries a weight on their chest and no one can hide it completely.
If standing here smiling is going to be my weapon,
Never looking down, never averting my eyes, I’ll just keep looking forward.
When I thought about the value of my own existence, I should have known it had no limit,
But with a single word of yours – it was strange – all my anxiety vanished.
I let my long hair flow loose and take the wind at my cheek.
I step down on the earth and wait for your return.
I didn’t realize the fact you accepted me for who I am
Became my reason for living.
I was lost, searching for a place where I could belong;
Now that I’ve made it here, I won’t give it up to anyone.
I stay here.
I’m gate-keeper.
I for you.
We’re not alone
