What are you doing right now, tonight?
Are you thinking of me, just a little, right?
'Cause I think about you all day, every day
I look up at the stars, and I say your name
Tonight is Tanabata, the seventh of July
Two stars meet once a year, up there in the sky
They wait so long, but they never say goodbye
So maybe you and me, we'll be fine
I thought being apart means love goes away
But I love you more and more every day
I can't hold your hand tonight
But my heart is holding you so tight
The stars wait a whole year just to meet
So I can wait for you, wait for you and me
No matter how far, no matter how long
I love you, I love you, this feeling is strong
That's all I know, that's all I need to know
I listen to your voice from our last call again
I typed"I miss you" then deleted it and then
I typed it one more time, but I got scared
It's funny, my true words are the hardest to share
I used to count the days and feel so blue
But every day that ends is one day close to you
I can't hold your hand tonight
But my heart is holding you so tight
The stars wait a whole year just to meet
So I can wait for you, wait for you and me
No matter how far, no matter how long
I love you, I love you, this feeling is strong
That's all I know, that's all I need to know
Love is not just being side by side
Love is thinking of you every night
The starlight takes years to reach my eyes
But it still shines, it still arrives
So even if my love takes time to get through
It's on its way, it's flying to you
I can't hold your hand tonight
But my heart is holding you so tight
The stars wait a whole year just to meet
So I can wait for you, wait for you and me
I wrote my wish and hung it on the tree
"Let me see you soon, and please be happy"
No matter how far, no matter how long
I love you, I love you, this feeling is strong
That's all I know, that's all I need to know
Our love is real, and I won't let it go
What are you doing right now, tonight?
I'm under the stars, and I'm alright
See you soon, my love
(I'll be waiting under the stars)
