梶浦由記 FICTION II歌詞
1.in this winter

we're in the middle of the winter
and walking hand in hand
long time no see, but now you're here with me
to bless this icy land

if the night is dark and cold
I will warm you with my kiss
let me hold you in my arms again
and vow to stay with me
through the snow

I was always sad and cold
all alone, before we met
now you've taught me how to find the light
even in darkness of winter

we are wandering hand in hand
up and over hills of snow
we'll keep on walking through winter

冬の真ん中で
私達は手を取り合って歩いている
ずっと会えなかったけれど
貴方はやっと帰って来た
この冷たい大地を祝福する為に

夜が暗くて寒いのならば
キスで暖めてあげる
もう一度抱きしめさせて
そしてこの雪を越えて
ずっと側にいると言って欲しいの

貴方と会うまでは
私はいつも寒くて寂しい想いをしていた
でも今貴方がどうやって光を見つけるかを教えてくれた
どんな冬の暗闇の中でも

私達は手に手を取って彷徨っている
雪の丘を越えて
私達は冬の中を歩いて行くでしょう

4.my long forgotten cloisterd sleep

(unreleased work of Xenosaga)
作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

in my long forgotten cloistered sleep
you and I were resting close in peace
was it just a dreaming of my heart?
now I'm crying, don't know why

where do all the tears come from?
could no one ever dry up the spring?
if you find me crying in the dark
please call my name, from the heart

sing with me a tiny autumn song
weep me melodies of the days gone by
dress my body all in flowers white,
so no mortal eye can see

where have all my memories gone?
should I roam again up yonder hill?
I can never rest my soul
until you call my name
you call my name, from the heart

in my long forgotten cloistered sleep
someone kissed me, whispering words of love
is it just a longing of my heart?
such a moment of such peace

where do all the tears come from?
with no memories, why should I cry?
I can never rest my soul
until you call my name…you call my name
you call my name, call my soul, from the heart


5.I swear

作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

I swear, my love
I will always be by your side
I'll be your shelter
and keep you from the cold and rain
from every hurt of life
and fallen pain

I know, I'm in love
in overwhelmin' tears and bravery
so I smile, and I kiss you
to show you how a heart is made
in every breath of love

call me your only one
sharing the time of life
searching for old-time forgotten melodies
calling the name of love
we're in the pain of love
sharing the old-time forgotten melodies

calling you only one
sharing the time of life
never betray my forgotten melodies

I swear you're my love
you'll never be alone in freezing night
and I'll be your memories
to warm you in tomorrow's rain
in sleepless night

if you are still in the shadow
if you are still in your pain
just call my name
I'll be your light, till the sun will find you
by the name of darkness
I swear to you

call me your only one
sharing the time of life
you're my sweet triplet in boring melodies
calling the name of love
we're in the pain of love
searching for old-time forgotten melodies

singing the song of love
we're in the pain of love
never betray my forgotten melodies
calling the name of love
we're in the pain of love
sharing the old-time forgotten melodies

calling the name of the true love
sharing the time of the pain
and I swear
so I swear
by you……


6.forest

作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

summer rain falls on the apple branches
lights from heaven dancing with the shadows

come take my hand
let me be in your forest

sometimes you think loneliness is better than pain
and you sink deeper in your valley

is this the place to be, in your memory?

no, I never wanna lose you in the forest of the night
in vanity's lair
yearning for the angel calling
hear the lonely prayer ringing through the land of rain
across the thin air
they sing voice to voice
the ancient melodies
calling you

autumn goes by
combing twilight into my hair
I look back on the passing tenderness

let me stay by your side
in your memory

no, you never gonna find me in the forest of the night
in vanity's lair
no more holly angel calling
hear my lonely prayer ringing through the land of rain
across the thin air
we sing voice to voice
the ancient melodies
I'm calling you

no, I never wanna lose you in the forest of the night
in vanity's lair
yearning for the angel calling
hear the lonely prayer ringing through the land of rain
across the thin air
they sing voice to voice
the ancient melodies
I'm calling you


7.Sweet Song

(Xenosaga Ⅱ ending theme)
作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

I remember the days of summer
We were so close together
You were humming the songs of silence
Sweetly plucking the harp of wind

Ev'ry moment was sacret and mystic
We were near to the shore of eternity
The days are gone, and will never come back

You were a half of me……Long time ago

Life can never be perfect without you
But I'm still on my way to the future
For I remember your sweet song in my mind

To the lost horison, I'm calling your name
Again and again……

Though the night is so dark
a new dawn is so close to me
Sun will come and shine on all seeds of hope

9.everytime you kissed me

作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

everytime you kissed me
I trembled like a child
gathering the roses
we sang for the hope
your very voice is in my heartbeat
sweeter than my dream
we were there, in everlasting bloom

roses die,
the secret is inside the pain
winds are high up on the hill
I cannot hear you
come and hold me close
I'm shivering cold in the heart of rain
darkness falls, I'm calling for the dawn

silver dishes for the memories,
for the days gone by
singing for the promises
tomorrow may bring
I harbour all the old affection
roses of the past
darkness falls, and summer will be gone

joys of the daylight
shadows of the starlight
everything was sweet by your side, my love
ruby tears have come to me, for your last words
I'm here just singing my song of woe
waiting for you, my love

now let my happiness sing inside my dream..........

everytime you kissed me
my heart was in such pain
gathering the roses
we sang of the grief
your very voice is in my heartbeat
sweeter then despair
we were there, in everlasting bloom

underneath the stars
shaded by the flowers
kiss me in the summer day gloom, my love
you are all my pleasure, my hope and my song
I will be here dreaming in the past
until you come
until we close our eyes


10.I reach for the sun

作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

every kiss you gave me touched my heart
every word still ringers in my mind
still lights the way to go
the song I sing is all for my love

every boat is aiming for the shore
every seed is growing towards the light
my heart still knows the place to go
let all my grief show the way below

every tear, could be like rain of grace to me

I reach for the sun
and sing for the sky
wishing my heart could fly
down to where my happiness lives
up the blue hills
to reach in the heart of the rainbow

I leave this place and then I'll get on board
leaving all sadness behind
a brighter new dawn is breaking
I reach for your soul
deep in immortal love

every heart is wounded by some love
but every soul keep searching from above
we'll make our way beyond the hard pouring rain
just to find love

12.March

作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

dancing with my shadow
my springtime now is coming
every tiny flower
is singing about what love is

bless me with some memories
you taught me how to feel yet one more
lonely ache
one more sigh
for your eyes
for your soul

pressed in my book of pleasure
a crumpled four-leaf clover
rustling for the old days
the moments that I treasure

take my hand, my shadow
you left me on a summer's day
but I dance with you only

hear the wind,
now that spring is coming with all the joy and laughter
in the sky
all the birds are singing for this happy season
you shall hear
sweeter whispers of love under all the branches
now in March, every leaf and cloud are shining bright
without you

in my dreams I wander
through all those scattered flowers
how I smiled beside you
like a new born angel

bless me with your memories
just like shelter from the sunlight
I sing for you only

in the air
see that March is coming, bringing joy and laughter
on the hill
all the flowers are in bloom with hopeful wishes
hear the bells
ring across the river praising light and shadow
now in March, every song and soul
are filled with joy

hear the wind,
now that spring is coming with the lover's glory
in the sky
all the birds are singing for the lost illusions
you shall hear
sweeter whispers of love under all the branches
in March, every leaf and cloud are shining bright
without you

14.maybe tomorrow

(Xenosaga Ⅲ ending theme)
作詞:梶浦由記
作曲:梶浦由記

the moon is gone
and the night is still so dark
I'm a little bit afraid of tomorrow

for this day was so long and hard for me
and I've lost some of the things so far I have trusted

now I will close my heart and sleep a while
bless my dream with gentle darkness
until I could have my strength
to wait for the light
maybe tomorrow……

I've come through
some betrayal, some old pains,
some addiction to the love
and some good-bye

like you did,
like my mother, father did,
I will cry a little while
and wait for tomorrow

there's no way to be free from the loneliness
it took so long for me to notice
but now I am on my way to find my light
maybe this day……
maybe tomorrow……

I will sleep a while, until the dawn wakes me up again
I still believe……come what may……

there is no way to be free from love
deeper we sink in the darkness
brighter is shines in our hearts
the lights of love

the moon is gone
and the night is still so dark
I'm a little bit afraid of tomorrow
but I will go……
I'll go over……
I will go……
