In these dark shadows of sorrow, I search for just a ray of light.
How can I tell you how broken I have become from within?
Yet I still ask people for directions to your house.
Don’t ask about the restlessness of this heart in front of everyone;
Your name will come up, and people will make your life difficult.
In this city of mirrors, I search for my own reflection.
The person I had lost years ago,
Today, once again, I search for them in this loneliness.
I had thought that after today I would never set foot in your streets again,
But what can I do? The habit of seeing you keeps pulling me toward you.
For just a single dose of love, I have been starving for many days.
The thirst to have you now outweighs every one of my desires.
Whatever feelings were hidden in this heart, today I have written them all down.
Now it is up to you whether you accept me or not.
I have simply closed my eyes and followed after you.
I cannot believe it when I hear people speak of your unfaithfulness.
In these dark shadows of sorrow, I search for just a ray of light.
