"I for you"[col:4087353535]
You told me
That you couldn't love anybody
When I saw that you were afraid of everybody
I finally realised what you meant
Wouldn't it be too sad
If the two of us met
only to get hurt?
With all my heart
I have to tell you this
All I want is to see the real YOU
You still don't smile very well
Because even now, you still wear sadness around you
If the only reason I was born
was so I could meet you,
do you think I'll be able to change everything?
With all my heart
I have to tell you this
We're hurt, but we've still got time
With all my heart
I love you
I want to wipe away
All the pain that falls on you
I for You
With all my heart
I have to tell you this
If only you could smile at me like that
forever...
With all my love
I love you
I want to gather every piece of light
and give it all to you
I for You
[mcol:4087353535]Yonekura Chihiro
"Friends"[col:4087353535]
I've always searched those same eyes
those same dreams, my friends
Those tears of the past and the laughter that will come
I wish to take them all in
Fear nothing Not even the rainy mornings nor the long darkness of the night
I want to become the wings that shall protect you like this sky
I shall soar far beyond eras
the future that begins now, I shall give you
I'll face the winds, stamp on the earth
and live forever with you
The world touched by the warmth of
those hands brims with light
Just by staying beside you I grow stronger than anyone
This little miracle of our encounter
shall someday be a part of history
Such that I ease your pain and sadness
like the way this sea does
I shall be the light that lights up the future as
we drift across the distant waves
Till the end of this long journey I
shall live forever with you
I want to become the wings that shall
protect you like this sky
I shall soar far beyond eras and the
future that begins now I shall give you
I'll face the winds, stamp on the earth
and live forever with you
I shall live forever with you

"Powder Snow"
* ENFp-ISTp[col:4087353535]We always miss each other in the season of fluttering powdered snow
Though we're lost in the crowd, we're looking up at the same sky
And blown by the wind, we both feel the same chill
I'm sure I don't know everything about you
But still I found you out of a hundred million people
I have no proof, but I truly believe that
We can't spend time together without quarreling over little things
If we can't be honest with each other, happiness and sadness are empty
If the powdered snow dyed our hearts white
Would we be able to share our loneliness?
I want to press my ear against your heart
And descend quietly into the depths where that voice leads me
Let's meet there once again
I'm the one who said I wanted us to understand each other, but just brushed the surface
When just by holding your cold hand we're connected
Powdered snow, the eternity before us seems too fragile
Like the stained surface of rough asphalt
Powdered snow, unable to rely on time, my heart is swaying
But even so I want to keep protecting you
If the powdered snow has made our hearts white
It will enfold our loneliness and return it to the sky [mcol:4087353535]Hayashibara Megumi
"Lively Motion"
[col:4087353535]All this time, I thought that nothing would change with the passage of time
But I was wrong,
Everyday something changes little by little
I don't need such things as eternity,
But for the moment I spend here with you
I want to feel the beat of my heart, passionately and painfully
I want to feel this throbbing
I want to protect you,
Yet I am protected by your warm look
Strength is not power; Let us engrave these words into our hearts
* Believing in the believable path that we'll embark from here on
I am here; you are here
We don't need anything more than that
I feel that I am living
Rather than look for the reason I was born
Rather than the answer,
I'm finding more important things one by one
When things didn't go well,
I often felt frustrated at being left behind
But I was wrong,
Everyday something is changed little by little
You always smile for me
But what can I do for you?
Rather than "I'm sorry", I want to say
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
Protecting, yet being protected
Together, let's support each other
Tears are not signs of weakness; This we know deep in our hearts
When we're alone or together
The time each one spends with everybody is filled with
Moments that make our hearts tremble
The searchable happiness that we seek must be there
Because I'll find the things that matter more than the answer
One by one

"For Fruits Basket"
[col:4087353535] I was so happy, you were laughing
With a smile that melts everything away
Spring is still far away, inside the cold earth,
Waiting for the time to sprout
For instance, even if today is painful
And yesterday's wounds remain
I want to believe that I can free my heart and go on
I cannot be reborn
But I can change as I go on, so
Let's stay together always
Smile only at me and touch me with those fingers
This simple desire is everlasting
I want things to be simple
Let's finally get across this sea of mournful sorrow
For instance, even if today is painful
Someday it will become a warm memory
If you leave everything up to your heart
I understand the meaning our living here
It is to know the joy of having been born
Let's stay together always
For instance, even if today is painful
Someday it will become a warm memory
If you leave everything up to your heart
I understand the meaning our living here
It is to know the joy of having been born
Let's stay together always

"Scarlet"[col:4087353535]Can you still see your dreams in the distant, starry sky?
Are they more vivid than they were when you were little?
When one forgets to put the emotions that overflow in her heart
to rest, they burn the color of passion.
I used to believe without a doubt that I could reach my dreams, no matter how far off they were.
But that me from long ago now sleeps inside my heart.
Dreams are more fragile and fleeting than a glass rose,
so then why are we destined to dream?
Sometimes two dreams can turn into love,
but there are also times when they can't.
Even when they're alone, people want to share their feelings, but it can be so hard.
Words are powerless to express one's feelings, and sometimes they become a silver knife.
Even when they're alone, people want to share their feelings, but it can be so hard.
Words are powerless to express one's feelings, and sometimes they become a silver knife.
I used to believe without a doubt that I could reach my dreams, no matter how far off they were.
But that me from long ago now sleeps inside my heart.

"Fly High"[col:4087353535]I couldn't leave at all, because
there's scenery I've gotten so used to seeing.
Even if I come here again some time
I'll see the same sky in the same way
Maybe I thought too much
about whether or not you could call it beautiful.
After a little sleep let's hurry again tomorrow.
I'm afraid. The steps I can't take
pile up, and turn into a long, long
path untraveled; I'm too late.
During that time, I started thinking that
somehow maybe even this place isn't so bad.
I kept giving myself reasons.
In reality, since as long as I haven't understood even once,
I've been pretending to understand everything.
I couldn't leave at all, because
there's scenery I've gotten used to seeing.
Somehow everything seems small, and
what I thought was a small lump was
the sky I look up at that has no end.
Maybe because it's too wide.
Maybe because I was next to you.
I wanted to understand it with my head, but
I envy looking back at
someone, somewhere that I missed.
I'll forever be demanding something that isn't there.
I've been thinking like that since I met you.
It's all in this hand for sure.
I mustn't leave my dreams here.
It's all in this hand for sure.
I don't need a predetermined future.
[mcol:4087353535]Do As Infinity
"Deep Forest"
[col:4087353535]Inside the deep, deep forest, even now there is surely
hidden an abandoned heart.
Without the power to search for it, people
tire and disappear into the eternal darkness.
If I were still small I could probably still see it.
As we live we lose it, little by little.
Wearing falsehoods and lies we are petrified, without even voices.
While we don't even notice the color of the blue, blue sky,
the days that pass constantly change.
Surpassing our artificial boundaries, we live in the now;
the rusted heart begins to move again.
If you know the rhythm of time, you can surely fly again.
We live on while wandering to the ends of the earth;
We walk in search of the light we believe in; you and me, now.
As we live we lose it, little by little.
Wearing falsehoods and lies we are petrified, without even voices.
We live on while wandering to the ends of the earth;
We close the path behind us and walk on into eternity.
We're petrified, without even voices.
We live on into eternity.
