Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

It makes me think of snow... falling softly.... Ice... crystals...
And a darkening sky... or pure white... Looking into the window of a car, at a girl looking down, with her hand fisted and pressed against her cheek to hold up her head. Her eyes look inwards, where determination is apparent, but overall she expresses the immense melancholy of this song.

There is something bittersweet about this song, so different from Hikari/Simple and Clean, and yet so similar. I'm not sure I can point it out right now... but if ever I acquire KH2 and defeat it, I will definitely come back to this...

What have I said before about this song? That it has a reminiscent feel to it... looking back on your past in melancholy, thinking of, perhaps, people you loved once... lost friends or family... and this song... I feel like I want to curl up somewhere alone and cry, just to feel the full force of this song...

思い出せば遥か遥か
未来はどこまでも輝いてた
きれいな青空の下で
僕らは少しだけ怯えていた

Omoidaseba haruka haruka
Mirai wa doko mademo kagayaiteta
Kireina aozora no shita de
Bokura wa sukoshi dake obieteita

If I recall, far far away
The future was shining on everywhere
Beneath the beautiful blue sky
We were just a little frightened

懐かしい色に窓が染まる

Natsukashii iro ni mado ga somaru

The window is tinted a nostalgic color

前を向いてればまた会えますか
未来はどこへでも続いてるんだ
大きな看板の下で
時代の移ろいを見ていたいな[1]

Mae wo muitereba mata aemasu ka
Mirai wa doko edemo tsuduiterunda
Ookina kanban no shita de
Jidai no utsuroi wo miteitai na [1]

If we advance forth, can we ever meet again?
The future goes on to everywhere
Beneath the large signboard
How I want to watch the times changing [1]

二度と会えぬ人に場所に
窓を開ける

Nido to aenu hito ni basho ni
Mado wo akeru

I will open a window
To the people and places I can't see again

思い出せば遥か遥か
未来はどこまでも輝いてた
きれいな青空の下で
僕らはいつまでも眠っていた

Omoidaseba haruka haruka
Mirai wa doko mademo kagayaiteta
Kireina aozora no shita de
Bokura wa itsu mademo nemutteita

If I recall, far far away
The future was shining on everywhere
Beneath the beautiful blue sky
We were slumbering forever

ずっと前に好きだった人
冬に子供が生まれるそうだ
昔からの決まり事を
たまに疑いたくなるよ
ずっと忘れられなかったの [2]
年賀状は写真付きかな [3]
私たちに出来なかったことを
とても懐かしく思うよ

Zutto mae ni suki datta hito
Fuyu ni kodomo ga umareru sou da
Mukashi kara no kimari goto wo
Tama ni utagaitaku naru yo
Zutto wasurerarenakatta no [2]
Nengajou wa shashin tsuki kana [3]
Watashitachi ni dekinakatta koto wo
Totemo natsukashiku omou yo

The person I liked since long ago
I heard will bear a child in winter
What I decided since long ago
I sometimes would want to doubt it
The New Year's card I could never forget [2]
Is it really like a photograph? [3]
I think very nostalgically
Of what we couldn't do
