people who have been inflicted with my presence the past few days would probably be quite familiar with this jap song i insist on playing to anyone around me. squidees, if you want a listen drop me a note. yes, i promise its not a loud metal song. :) in fact its a sweetish melody...kinda like a little kitten: hopelessly adorable.
anyways! found the lyrics and traslations to it. almost started crying. its that good. read it!
--legal mumbo-jumbo: original translation stolen from this site. being more concerned with the message of the song as it spoke to me, rather than the accuracy of the translation, i modified and rephrased. --
inspired by white road by glay.
kissing on this holy night, beyond the sounds of winter
I could hear the song of the wind
I was startled by the news from home
a sad wasteland outside this frosted window
How was this year for you?
I'm at the age where I am lost for words
when someone just comes out and asks me
that we bid goodbye here, and then
made a promise.
in time, both our parting and the promise
tore my heart, and yet
bloomed within, as the seasons changed
this romance that's surmounted the pain of being unrequited
is not the first, and probably not the best
but when it becomes love, I think we'll be able to call it our final love.
on sleepless nights, my mind cannot let go of
the 'see you later' from when we parted
I'm can't tell you how many times I've been saved
this ordinary love with its smiles, and caresses
unconsiously, again and again
I talk about my dreams
but perhaps its time? they shrivel up
when you say in that manner of yours
"when you tire of your dreams, come on home"
my tears fall at your awkward attempts at kindness
looking back, my hometown wasn't a place
it was you, only you.
lonely child in my arms, down the dark night road
now on, I'll walk with someone I love
living with singular purpose, this long white road
days long gone, only memories now,
I'll quietly take them out on nights I'm alone
on the road to finding that special someone,
I count the footprints of those that went away.
our romance that has surmounted the pain of being unrequited
it may not be the first, nor the greatest
but when at last it becomes love, I think we'll be able to call it the last
I swear it.
In my heart, there stands the white road.
one of the more true descriptions of love ive found, anyway.
