Lyrics
Game Size
I open my eyes to another day To things that I have known, things that happen everyday I feel there's a shadow creeping up on me The wind blows through the streets Telling me something I don't see Draw the line, (and) turn the time Taking back what was mine Now I could change almost anything Hold tight, search for the light Do I know what's wrong or right? Put the pieces back where they belong The air is still. A path appears. The choice is clear. I'm finally here. Safely back in your arms...
Japanese Translation
また新しい日が始まった知っている事ばかりの、いつも通りの一日 でも影が忍び寄って来ている気がするんだ 風が道を通り過ぎ行く僕に見えない物を教えているみたいに・・・ ラインを引き、時間を回せ僕の物を取り返すんだ 今なら何だって変えられるかもしれない しっかり掴まって光を探せ 僕は自分を信じていいのだろうか 散らばった欠片を元に戻せ 空気は止まり、道が現れる 選ぶのは一つ。やっとたどり着いたんだ 君の腕の中へ・・・ |
Long Version
I open my eyes to another day To things that I have known, things that happen everyday. I feel there's a shadow creeping up on me The wind blows through the streets Telling me something I don't see Draw the line, (and) turn the time Taking back what was mine Now I could change almost anything Hold tight, search for the light Do I know what's wrong or right Put the pieces back where they belong The days and the months are drifting by As though they didn't notice seasons changing in the breeze They all look the same but I sense something's there Waiting around the path Revealing a truth that I will defend Draw the line, (and) turn the time Taking back what was mine Now I could change almost anything Hold tight, search for the light Do I know what's wrong or right? Put the pieces back where they belong In my heavy heart I see the truth, no scar ever heals They never fade away Each and every one... It's going to be all right Light comes after every night Draw the line, (and) turn the time Taking back what was mine Now I could change almost anything Hold tight, search for the light Do I know what's wrong or right Put the pieces back where they belong The air is still, A path appears, The choice is clear, I'm finally here. Safely back in your arms... |
