Far Away

Kanon's song "Far Away" is a heartfelt ballad that explores the themes of love, longing, and commitment. The lyrics tell the story of a person who is separated from their beloved by a vast distance, symbolized by the sea. Despite the physical separation, the narrator's love remains strong and unwavering. The repeated phrase "Far across the sea, I will find my love" emphasizes the determination and hope that one day they will be reunited with their partner.

The song delves into the deep emotional connection between the narrator and their love. Lines like "I feel your heartbeat next to mine" and "Dreaming of the day that I would be the mother of your child one day" highlight the intimacy and future aspirations the narrator holds. The mention of becoming a mother signifies a desire for a long-term, committed relationship, further underscoring the depth of their feelings.

Cultural elements are also present in the song, with the inclusion of Japanese lyrics: "Tooi umi no kanata yume ni kaita basho de, Odayaka ni sugosu anata to futari de." This translates to "Far across the sea, in the place I dreamed of, peacefully spending time with you." This bilingual approach adds a layer of universality to the song, suggesting that love transcends language and cultural barriers. The song's message is clear: true love is worth any sacrifice and will endure despite any obstacles.
