Everything Goes On

Romaji

Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told
So let’s pretend a little longer
Cause when we’re gone,
Everything goes on
Well, you were staring at the window
And I said, “I’ll just bring the sea to you”
But if I was gone tomorrow,
Won’t the waves crash on?
Is it selfish that I’m happy,
As we pass the setting sun?
Someday I’ll be overcast,
But you won’t have to cry –
Cause we’ll do the grieving
While I’m by your side
I said:
Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told
So let’s pretend a little longer
Cause when we’re gone,
Everything goes on
And I’m so scared of getting used to this
All the vines that keep you tethered in your room
Said, “I’m sorry that you worried”
But don’t apologize
I told you to forget me
But you stayed by my side
When I said:
“Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told”
So let’s pretend a little longer
And when we’re gone,
Everything goes on
