Rie Fu, Life is Like a Boat single
| Nobody knows who I
really am I never felt this empty before And if I ever need someone to come along, Who’s gonna comfort me, and keep me strong? We are all rowing the boat of fate The waves keep on coming and we can’t escape But if we ever get lost on our way The waves would guide you through another day tooku de iki o shiteru toomei ni natta mitai kurayami ni omoe dakedo mekaku shisareteta dake inori o sasagete atarashii hi o matsu asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made Nobody knows who I really am Maybe they just don’t give a damn But if I ever need someone to come along I know you would follow me, and keep me strong hito no kokoro wa utsuriyuku nukedashitaku naru tsuki wa mada atarashii shuuki de fune o tsureteku And every time I see your face The ocean heaves up to my heart You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon I can see the shore Oh, I can see the shore When will I see the shore? I want you to know who I really am I never thought I’d feel this way towards you And if you ever need someone to come along, I will follow you, and keep you strong tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku odayakana hi mo tsuki wa mada atarashii shuuki de fune o terashidasu inori o sasagete atarashii hi o matsu asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made And every time I see your face The ocean heaves up to my heart You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon I can see the shore unmei no fune o kogi nami wa tsugi kara tsugi e to watashi-tachi o shou kedo [1] sore mo suteki na tabi ne dore mo suteki na tabi ne |
I’m breathing in a faraway place, it seems like I’ve become transparent And though I think I’m in the dark, I’ve only been blindfolded Offering a prayer, I wait for a new day to come Until the morning stops glittering on the sea People’s hearts shift and change, wanting to slip out The moon still keeps bringing in the boat with each new phase The journey still continues, even on calm days The moon still starts shining down on the boat with each new phase Offering a prayer, I wait for a new day to come Until the morning stops glittering on the sea We are all rowing the boat of fate, the waves keep on coming and we can’t escape [1] That too is a beautiful journey, isn’t it? Any of them is a beautiful journey, isn’t it |
