| Live well, live well, to our love It's been dejected by the setting of the sun But I'll keep it discreetly in my heart 'Tis shows that my heart remains firm with you. Chorus Love, our love I am restless by having to wait this long for you Love, my love Absent-minded1from having to wait far too long for you. Anxious from living afar from you I am in tears, begging you -- dear me And always shedding tears on moonlight nights With a deep breath, I swore that my love for you will never end.
