【歌ってみた】Metronome (English)【Luna☽】 |
Description: "I couldn’t bring myself to tell you 'I really want to have you here'" In the most authentic "me" style, have a sad love song for Valentine's Day. Notes from mixer: https://gyazo.com/5fefc3fff55b3a4b1fd42fbd46b16df1 Like Eine Kleine, this song feels very personal and I've been writing lyrics for it since it came out over a year ago, yet I could only quickly record and had to ask other people to mix/subtitle for me. THESIS LIFE IS CRAZY. Thanks to my friends for their hard work! PS I also have lyrics for Eine Kleine, if you trust my lyric writing quality, you can totally ask for them if you'd like. I'm a bit sick and had to mostly oneshot this, but even so, I hope you'll enjoy it. Thanks for listening!

It’s a question that I can’t help but ponder when you aren’t near Then, did fate bring us apart? Even though I’m afraid to get an answer, it keeps going through my mind You see, even if I knew that it couldn’t be, I kept dreaming of you and me, But in our blind and foolish selfishness, we just hurt each other I couldn’t bring myself to tell you “I really want to have you here”, I was afraid you wouldn’t care, or that I’d be pushed away So I simply let you leave… No matter how the days go by or how long you’re out of sight, Even if our time is through, each time I will go back to you All of my feelings, clear as day, that I cannot confess, I will keep them inside once again If you know them, please laugh them away… Any time you aren’t here, Every color and feeling that surrounds me begins to grow dim But now that we’re back to the start, I cannot understand why it’s all different… I wish you could tell me why? We’ve been like two metronomes, and their every tick* has followed our life, I think Despite our tempos starting out the same, each of us went their way With every beat, and every measure, our timing grew further away Our synchrony had disappeared, until we had to accept You and I can’t** share a pace... From this day on, I do not know what it is the future holds Maybe we’ll forget at once and keep on going through our lives? Please promise me that from now on, you’ll smile on your own Even so, please don’t ever forget In my heart, you will always have a place In life we’ll pass each other by and walk on past, perhaps we won’t look back And as they say, we’ll be out of sight and out of mind But if our tempo stays the same, perhaps someday it’ll start to match again And maybe then, in some unknown confine of Earth We’ll start from the top once again… No matter how the days go by or how long you’re out of sight, I can promise this is true: the one I love will still be you All of my feelings, clear as day, that I cannot confess, I will keep them inside once again If you know them, please laugh them away… Yet, I want you to be here again… (Notes: * I sang "beat" instead of "tick"; these are the right lyrics ** Video says "don't" instead of "can't"; it is indeed "can't") |
