Careless with Love

Saya is the only woman that I’ve ever truly loved.
I was careless with our love and I lost her.
And I thought I’d never see her baby face again.
Fortunately, fate brought us back together,
But I was still careless with love and I lost her twice.
This time I don’t think I’m going to get her back.

I abandoned her in the south plain a year ago.
Now I’m in the mountainous region of the west.
Two hundred kilometres away from her, I sit and ponder.
She gave me something to live for each day.
Why did I turn my back on someone who loves me?
She doesn’t deserve to be treated this way.
I made the stupidest decision of my life.

She desperately gripped my hand to soften me,
But I pulled it out of her grasp in the hurricane.
I didn’t think I was going to lose her for good.
Who’d have anticipated such a traumatic conclusion?
I know how it feels to lose the one I love twice.
My loss is the greatest loss that has ever occurred.

Will she ever give me another chance to love her?
I seriously doubt that she wants me back,
But if she does, I’ll never be careless with love again.
And I couldn’t be more certain about this.
Now I know what she really means to me.
Too bad it took losing her twice to appreciate her.
