まなざしは光 (Your Gaze, Crepuscular) (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Even though it’s raining and I’m hiding under a small umbrella, there’s still a gentle, comforting light reaching me.

[Verse 1]
Letting go of small burdens makes me feel lighter, and just beyond where I’ve held myself back, someone reaches out to me.

[Pre-Chorus]
When I see your smile, it stirs something deep inside me and brings back old feelings I thought were gone. I realize this strange, overwhelming feeling is love, and it makes my heart race.

[Chorus]
Whenever our eyes meet or our hands touch, it feels like you can see right into who I really am. Every little moment we share—talking, looking at the same sky—makes me want to understand you more. You’ve become a guiding light for me. I even faced big challenges, like those huge summer clouds, just to be closer to you. You shine so brightly, but you feel gentle and warm at the same time. Your gaze feels like light.

[Verse 2]
To avoid hurting anyone or getting hurt, I kept myself within safe boundaries, never stepping beyond them.

[Bridge]
Even while standing in the rain, half-soaked under my umbrella, I feel a soft, comforting light. When I look up through squinted eyes, I can’t find the right words to show just how much you mean to me. That innocent, childlike smile of yours just says it all.

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve fallen for you so deeply and suddenly, it even scares me. I can’t look away anymore—I want to be wrapped up in everything you see and feel.

[Chorus]
Whenever our eyes meet or our fingers brush, it’s like you’ve touched the deepest part of who I am. Sharing moments, talking, and looking at the same world makes me crave knowing you more. You bring light into my life. I pushed through everything, like those giant summer clouds, just to be near you. You shine so brightly, but your warmth makes it feel safe. Your gaze is pure light.
