Always fumbling in the dark on my own,
I laugh as I talk about tomorrow.
Funny, isn't it?

under the sky above

Lyrics from Animelyrics.com
Now matter how pretty the words I use
to say "I won't hurt anyone,"
It doesn't mean I've gotten the hang of
Kindness or lying.

Now, even on days when all around us

the night light gently lights
the profile of your face.

Softly I call your name in my heart
time and again to keep from crying.
The nightlight that is always by my side,
lighting up tomorrow.

hurikaeru kimi ha
yawarakai hikari datta
sou ima mo itsudemo


Lyrics from Animelyrics.com
When you looked over your shoulder, 
and there was a soft light
Yes, now and forever

[1] "kimi wo" is a sort of tacked on at the end of the stanza. I interpretted as "And now it's you I won't lose sight of." There are probably other ways to translate it though.
