Lyrics
Intro
Verse 1
If I saw you in the morning light
Would you tell me it’s alright?
I’m walking through these lonely days
Searching for your face through the haze
Pre-Chorus
I must be strong, I must carry on
‘Cause I know I don’t belong here yet
Chorus
Beyond the golden gate, will you know my name?
Beyond the silver mist, will you feel the same?
Time can break a heart, make you bend and pray
But love is the bridge that will find a way
Verse 2
Softly now, the shadows fall
I think I hear your spirit call
A gentle breeze, a touch of grace
In this quiet, empty space
Pre-Chorus
I’ll find my way, through the night and day
‘Cause I know there’s no more tears to cry
Chorus
Beyond the golden gate, will you know my name?
Beyond the silver mist, will you feel the same?
Time can break a heart, make you bend and pray
But love is the bridge that will find a way
Outro
Beyond the gate...
I’ll see you there...
Just a little while longer...
[Verse 1]
もし朝の光の中で君に会えたら
「大丈夫だよ」って言ってくれるかな？
僕は一人きりの日々を歩いている
霞（かすみ）の中に君の顔を探しながら
強くならなきゃいけない、歩き続けなきゃいけない
だって、僕はまだそちら側へ行くべきじゃないから
[Chorus]
黄金の門の向こうで、僕の名前を覚えていてくれる？
銀色の霧の向こうで、変わらぬ想いでいてくれる？
時間は心を打ち砕き、人を膝まかせ、祈らせるけれど
愛という架け橋が、いつか道を見つけてくれるはずさ
[Verse 2]
静かに、今、影が落ちていく
君の魂が呼んでいるような気がするんだ
穏やかなそよ風、慈しみの手触り
この静かで、空っぽな場所で
夜も昼も、僕は自分の道を見つけるよ
だって、もう流す涙なんて残っていないのだから
[Outro]
あの門の向こうで……
そこで会おう……
あともう少しだけ……
