The vastness of what we lose oh

The weight of what we gain uh

Who are you

From what lifetime did you find me eh

I longed to know where you had been

So I kept searching deep within your eyes

Fell in love at the very first sight

Your hand just a little smaller than mine

I thought I would hold it through every passing lifetime

Until time itself grew old uh

Even the flowers along the path once felt so dear to me

The morning light broke into particles and poured across the world

I was dreaming an endless dream

If it was always meant to be taken away why was it given at all

Across the twilight of Shinobazu Pond the cries of ducks echoed on the water

And woke me from that endless dream

My friend oh I will keep walking to find that answer

Along a road far longer than any I have known before

The vastness of what we lose

The weight of what we gain

You know I got completely lost in this endless universe

The mothership has already vanished far from my sight

There is no way to return to those innocent days before we ever found each other

This quiet despair this sense of loss will stay with me for the rest of my life

The vastness of what we lose oh

The weight of what we gain uh

What is selfless love I never stopped to question it ah

It was simply there too natural to doubt

A bond beyond reason brass bound all naming

And painfully so a love that only gives never asking

Quiet and without asking beyond all measure

There is nothing in this world more precious than this uh

(repeat twice)

Even the flowers along the path feel dear to me

Morning light scatters into particles and falls across the world

I want to keep dreaming this endless dream

But if it will all be taken someday why was it given at all

Across the twilight of Shinobazu Pond the ducks call out across the water

They pull me back from that endless dream

My friend oh I will keep walking to find that answer

On a road far longer than any I have known before

The vastness of what we lose

The weight of what we gain
