Don’t believe in death as an end. There is no such thing. Believe in new beginnings. Fresh perspectives. Every exit is an entrance somewhere else.

Lyrics:
I fear that you’ll never love me
and it breaks my heart
to accept that reality has
displaced me from you

I fear that you’ll never meet me
and it cuts my soul
trapped on the other side
of this looking glass

I’ve got a window into you
with these pages in my hands
I can flip through time
to see you again and again and again

to remember your smile
makes it all worth while
every day without you
there’s still hope within me

to dream of your kiss
drowns down the amiss
if only I could speak to you
my sweet Akemi

I wish that I could meet you
In real life
Instead a feel like a voyeur
a shadow, sometimes I cast
a shadow over you

I beg to the creator
And tell him my heart is true
But he thinks my love’s a joke
And I fear it will never reach you

to remember your smile
makes it all worth while
every day without you
there’s still hope within me

to dream of your kiss
drowns down the amiss
if only I could speak to you
my sweet Akemi

A total without you
is a puzzle without glue
is a fractured resistance
to this half-hearted existence

Kimi wa toi yume
Kimi wa toi yume
Kimi wa toi yume
Kimi wa toi yume

I know that you’ll never love me
but what can I do?
Just try to get by
yet I hold onto you
I know that you’ll never love me
it’s so obvious to me
let I follow you
in my dreams
you still haunt me

Kimi wa toi yume
Kimi wa toi yume
Kimi wa toi yume
Kimi wa toi yume

sayonara akemichan
itsumo boku no kokoro no naka de
kimi o motsu

Notes:
According to Michael Goodman, the Japanese lyrics have the following English translations:
· kimi wa toi yume = you are a distant dream
· sayonara akemichan = good-bye, Akemi
· itsumo boku no kokoro no naka de = always, in my heart
· kimi o motsu = I will keep you
