They both thought 3v3`d+;&
that a sudden feeling had united them n<Ki.;-ZE

They thought they didn't know each other, |;R-q8

These streets, these stairs, this corridors, 0oo_m6ie&
they could have passed each other long ago RQ,X0pS

I would like to ask them, SDO~g ~NTp
if they can remember - Pt7C/

perhaps in a revolving door n6{nx[%7N7
face to face one day? Vu,:rPqI

Not quite yet ready Yy_mX}\x
to change into destiny, 9\i^.2&
which brings them nearer and yet further, bjFND]p?w
barriering their path hcQv!!Q"k$

There were signs, indications, 2Oy-jM

this leaf flying >|JMvbje

他们都以为 U`ELd:
是那瞬间的感觉 oOK&+r7
将他们结合在一起 y?{YQ)fj
这种确定的感觉很美 7(KVA1P66

他们觉得彼此从未见面 Q

我想问问他们 STgYXA(
是否记得在某个回转门 \~'+TW
那个面对面的瞬间? _M7NL^B&
拥挤人潮中的那句「对不起」? `?:X-dh_

不,他们并不记得 '; Z!(r
