Let's Sing: 'Melodies of Life' Final Fantasy IX

I haven't done one of these in a little while - 'Melodies of Life' sung by Shiratori Emiko, composed by Uematsu Nobuo, and lyrics by Shiomi (白鳥英美子, 作曲：植松伸夫, 作詞：シオミ). I love this song! I used to listen to it when I was going to sleep! Because I was in an international mood I decided to sing it half in Japanese and half in English. Also, I'm totally just singing at my Mac, I don't even have a microphone, so I apologize for the distortion in some bits. Hope you like it because I had fun doing it!

Lyrics:

宛てもなく彷徨っていた
手がかりもなく探しつづけた
あなたがくれた想い出を
心を癒す詩にして

約束もすることもなく
交わす言葉を決めたりもせず
抱きしめ　そして確かめた
日々は二度と帰らぬ

記憶の中の手を振るあなたは
わたしの名を呼ぶことが出来るの

あふれるその涙を
輝く勇気にかえて
いのちはつづく
夜を越え
疑うことのない明日へと続く

So far and away, see the bird as it flies by
Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky
I've laid my memories and dreams upon those wings
Leave them now and see what tomorrow brings

In your dearest memories, do you remember loving me?
Was it fate that brought us close and now leaves me behind?

A voice from the past, joining yours and mine
Adding up the layers of harmony
And so it goes, on and on
Melodies of life,
To the sky beyond the flying birds--forever and beyond

If I should leave this lonely world behind
Your voice will still remember our melody
Now I know we'll carry on
Melodies of life
Come circle round and grow deep in our hearts
As long as we remember
