The Old Man And The Sea
ヨルシカ (Yorushika)
The Old Man And The Sea
My shoelace is untied, the sunlight dances on my feet
All I can hear is the sound of my breath
You’re rising now from the old, worn-out chair
There’s a soft scent of morning in the air
Far away, still far away
We’re shedding our bodies
Still far away, beyond the clouds, still further
Riding the wind
Beyond the gravity of my imagination
Still far away, still far away, towards the sea
My shoelace is untied, wriggling like a snake
I can’t help but notice your shoes
We’re starting to walk now, the sea breeze kisses our skin
Following the path as you hold my hand
Come on, still far away, still far away
We’re just becoming the wind
Still far away, beyond the clouds, still further
Riding the wind, breaking free from the chains of my imagination
Still far away, still far away, towards the sea
My shoelace is untied, I finally crouch down
All I can hear is the call of the birds
A gentle tap on my shoulder makes me realize
The sea is right in front of me
Ah, still far away, still far away
We’re just hearts now
Still far away, beyond the sea, still further
Riding the wind, beyond the gravity of my imagination
Still far away, still far away, towards the sea
We’re now taking off our shoes, the gentle waves kiss our feet
Your eyes are looking far away
Lions are playing, the sandy beaches of Africa
Are far beyond the sea.
