Soubou

Fading Away
From the distant sky above
Twilight starts to descend
Born in this tiny town
Living in the crowd, my friend
To reach the countless souls
Hoping to touch their hearts
In the frozen night
A simple love song plays
Frightened by the chilling wind
My heart feels like it frays
Don’t cry, this road leads on
Into the future, it stays
Through the endless gaps of life
Kindness flows like a stream
The meaning of carrying on
Is what I long for, it seems
Loneliness turns to amber
Quietly starts to gleam
No need for longing or fame
I don’t want a flashy dream
The meaning of carrying on
Is what I long for, it seems
To find the truth of life’s theme
As twilight settles down
I hear a voice in the sound
La la la la la la la la la la
