Yubiwa ~size 9~
To the tune of “Yubiwa” by ELLEGARDEN:
You always wanted this
This ring that we could never find
Well, now at last I’ve
Found that ring for you
On the outskirts of town
In an old store I’d known about
But, for some reason, never been inside
Can’t for the life of me
Remember if a size nine fits you, hm~
I hope you will not mind
The wrapping paper’s kind of cheap
Not that it matters
It’s just that ever since you left me
Everything has lost its meaning
The setting sun looks colorless
There’s no light in the starry sky
They fall away like something worthless
All the days we gave each other
And now all that still remains
Is the mem’ry of your words
There’s just nobody like you anymore
So what do I still truly have
What can I treasure
Now that you’re not here
With all the time that’s mine
The precious time that’s all my own
It doesn’t matter
It’s just that ever since you left me
Everything has lost its meaning
Now the morning sun can’t warm me
I can’t even feel the wind
It’s all worth absolutely nothing
Not if we can’t be together
And now the whole world becomes
No more than an empty shell
(Inst.)
If only we could talk all night
I’ve been dying to say to you
We know each other perfectly
I can feel you in my bones
Ours was a meeting without fanfare
And our parting momentary
For the first time I have learned
Of the days when my heart burned
It’s just that ever since you left me
Everything has lost its meaning
Even the heat of the day
New faces and new names
I could throw it all away
I only want you here with me
We never chose our destiny
And its strange fragility
But if we ever meet again
I swear I’ll give this ring to you
Someday, if we can meet again
zutto, zutto
I won’t let you go
(Ah~ it’s what you’ve always wanted, though)
