Kazeyomi
suddenly,
everything i’ve ever known disappears
like a thought in a dream
and returns to silence
there’s nothing that i need
from the world behind
because it seems so faraway
i hear someone whisper into my ear
i turn around but find nothing there
until i look up
and i see colors of love
raining down on me
ride the light
i’m stepping out into open sky
and i’m not afraid of falling
i’m not scared to let go
so beautiful
and everything i ever wanted
blessings
flowing over me
growing
rolling over and over
never want to go back
to the way it was before
i hear someone whisper into my ear
i turn around but find nothing there
until i look up
and i see colors of love
raining down on me
Song info: Image song for a program entitled "Planet Cafe Hoshizora no Niji [Planet Cafe The Starry Sky's Rainbow]" held at the Konica Minolta Planetarium "Manten [The Whole Sky]," located in Sunshine City (Ikebukuro, Tokyo). Maaya is the narrator (or "navigator") of this planetarium show, which runs from November 29, 2008 until June 14, 2009.
Maaya's liner notes: Song lyrics from Tim, it’s been a while. This is the best. The lyrics, the arrangement, and of course the song, they’re all the best. It’s got the universe, the ocean, night, daytime. Please listen to the sound of the colors of miracles. Ahh, Imahori-san’s guitar is MVP!
