LYRICS:
My mind is elsewhere
上の空
Chaos within my heart
混沌としたこの胸の中
For example,
たとえば
Like the blood from a hand grasping the sky
空を掴んだ手の血潮の様に
During an endless journey,
果てしない旅の中で
When answers don't come,
答えが出ない時に
What connected my life
いのちを繋げたのは
Was you, more than anything
何よりあなただった
I can sing, though my voice is faint
歌は歌える 声は微かで
A life that seemed empty
なにもないような
Is now changed into praise
人生はただ賛美に変わる
Fear and doubt are no longer needed
恐れは迷いはもう いらない
I invited you into my cluttered room
散らかった部屋に招いた
You sat there
そこにあなたは座って
And listened with clear eyes
澄んだ瞳で話を聞いたね
A world without silence
無音のない世界は
Passes by busily
忙しなく過ぎゆくけど
But the melodies I hum
口ずさむメロディーたちは
Are always for you
いつだってあなたのため
Since the day I met you,
あなたと出会った日から
The music flowing
流れてる音楽は
Is certainly different
確かに違う
My heart begins to move, trembling
震えるように 心が動き出す
I can sing, though my voice is faint
歌は歌える 声は微かで
A life that seemed empty
なにもないような
Is now changed into praise
人生はただ賛美に変わる
Fear and doubt are no longer needed
恐れは迷いはもう いらない
