They say that I'm always brightly smiling

They say that I don't know such a thing as pain

But my heart is crying

Oh but I say in my brightly smiling heart

I'm covered by a dark shadow

I hate myself for being like that

but my sad heart will smile someday

The after hours of nighttime

that always comes is my companion

It comes to me in case I get lonely from being alone

When the sun sets, tears well up without reason

Suddenly thinking of how I got dumped by a past lover

How I held back tears as I looked at the night sky

How I swallowed my tears,

not being able to cry, like a fool

The after hours of nighttime

that always comes is my companion

It comes to me in case

I get lonely from being alone

The after hours of nighttime

that always comes is my companion

It comes when I cry in case I get lonely

This place without you has stopped in time

Don't go too far away, stay where you are

Please wait for me, stay where you are

I'm going crazy, being alone here

during the wee hours of night

The mug cup you worked

so hard to make for me has shattered

A piece of it got stuck in my hand

and I'm bleeding but why am I blaming you?

It's a cold cold world out there

Sometimes I feel as if nobody cares

I'm down down down

Can somebody save me now

It's a cold cold world out there

Sometimes I feel as if nobody cares

I'm down down down

Can somebody save me now

Though it's hard

I gotta get up, don't give up now

Even my sad heart

Will smile someday

The morning sun that always comes is my companion

It shines on me in case I get lonely from being alone

When the sun rises, the birds fly to the sky

Sometimes, even the birds have no choice but to fly

Sometimes, I don't even know what I'm saying

But someone somewhere will know my heart

The morning sun that always comes is my companion

I gotta get up and stand up now

The morning sun that always comes is my companion

It shines on me when I cry in case I get lonely

I want to go back to the days before I met you

I want to go back to when I was young,

when everything was happy

You still don't know why I let you go

It was hard enough to walk on my own, do you know?

But I will go looking for you,

even if you're on the other side of the earth

It's not too far, I will have you

It's a cold cold world out there

Sometimes I feel as if nobody cares

I'm down down down

Can somebody save me now

It's a cold cold world out there

Sometimes I feel as if nobody cares

I'm down down down

Can somebody save me now

Though it's hard

I gotta get up, don't give up now

Even my sad heart

Will smile someday

Though it's hard

I gotta get up, don't give up now

Even my sad heart

Will smile now
