If Winter Comes, Can Spring Be Far Behind?
The Four Seasons
NIKIIE
Don't stop talking; please try to go on,
since these unsettled feelings have surfaced.
Nights so lonely that your tears won't fall,
how many of those have you endured alone?
Those who say "I can't"
are not those who want to run away,
but those who don't want to give up.
Because there is spring, summer comes;
Because there is summer, autumn comes;
Because there is autumn, winter comes;
It is a natural thing that the world changes.
Being free from trouble, is that happiness?
It is when you're deeply troubled that certain things will surface.
Those who say "All of myself vanishes"
are not those who want to erase things,
but those who want to change themselves.
Because spring comes, winter is dear;
Because winter comes, autumn is dear;
Because autumn comes, summer is dear;
It is by oneself that the world is changed.
What is it that can't be given up? Who is it that won't give up?
You know it from the start, don't you?
Don't stop talking; please try to go on.
Because there is spring, summer comes;
Because there is summer, autumn comes;
Because there is autumn, winter comes;
It is a natural thing.
Because spring comes, winter is dear;
Because winter comes, autumn, too, is dear;
Because autumn comes, summer, too, is dear;
It is by oneself that the world is changed.

Post title has nothing to do with the song, but the conveyed meaning is certainly related.
