Far

Lyrics & Composition: Marie Ueda
Arrangement: Akihito Tokunaga
Strings Arrange: Daisuke Ikeda

I was simply an adolescent. I was still in my teens
I was invincible in my imagination, but I lacked so many things
and those around me gradually increased - those beloved to me
They quickly became important. Then they become what I lose
and while I could see what was invisible
what I could see became invisible

A white line was drawn on the ground
Once I notice the flower petals falling (far far)
when they open, I leave them behind and say good-night
At the window the moonlight was singing (far far)
taking me away

I easily got stronger and every weekend got worried
My breathing bounds, I wake up, and an SOS gets through here
Even if it seems painful, only a transient heat is left now
An optimistic mind like this will save you. How?
While unable to see the invisible stars,
they're waiting in hiding in the clouds

A red plum bore fruit on my veranda
The old me said something (far far)
to the lips of that girl who was crying
What could I sing for the current me? (Far far)
It grows far away

Fussing over what I don't really understand
Clinging to the shell I protected
Crying again over my weak imagination
Feeling hopeless even when morning comes
Managing to do it now
The shell I protected disappearing long ago
Forgetting when I sleep
Agreeing even if it was frustrating

A red plum bore fruit on my veranda
The old me said something (far far)
to the lips of that girl who was crying
What could I sing for the current me? (Far far)

A white line was drawn on the ground
Once I notice the flower petals falling (far far)
when they open, I leave them behind and say good-night
At the window the moonlight was singing (far far)
taking me away

Growing far away
Taking me away
Growing far away
