A Thousand Winds

(千の風)

 

Words: from Chicken Soup of the Soul
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

 

 

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I’m the diamond glint on snow
I’m the sunlight on ripened grain
I’m the autumn rain

 

 

When you awake in the morning hush,
I’m the swift uplifting rush
Of birds circling in flight
I’m the stars that shine at night
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep

 

Sitting On The Roof 

 

Words: Reita Shiiyu
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

Sitting on the roof I’m all alone
and feeling lonely
Nothing seems to be alright
A tune as my friend, I need a song
that soon I think of
A song that I would like to sing

At times how I feel
like you are here by my side
But now no one’s there,
just here I am on the roof

Sitting on the roof, I feel the wind
against my shoulder
Which makes me feel I am free
And before my eyes the sky is
spreading endlessly
It makes me think that I can fly

At times how I feel
like you are here by my side
But now no one’s there,
just here I am on the roof

Sitting on the roof,
maybe I’m waiting for someone
Someone that never comes again
Nowhere to go,
and there is no one beside me
Just here I am on the roof
Just here I am on the roof
Just here I am on the roof

 

My Whole Life Depends On You

 

When you are lonely, feeling so small
I can tell the world it’s true
Don’t you know that I’m with you
When you’re deserted, when you’re alone
I can tell you now and forever
I will always be with you

Oh I wish I could tell you something
Just to make you feel so fine
I’m so much in love with you
And my whole life depends on you

 

When you’re beside me, it makes me so happy
All the feeling that I have
I will show you everywhere
I’ll love you forever, that’s all I can do
Every time I feel you near
Every day I’m satisfied

Oh I wish I could think of some ways
Which can give you everything
I’m so much in love with you
And my whole life depends on you
I’m so much in love with you
And my whole life depends on you

 

Little Eyes Upon You

小さな瞳

 

Words: Unknown
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

There are little eyes upon you
and they're watching night and day
There are little ears that quickly
take in every word you say
There are little hands all eager
to do anything you do
And a little boy who' dreaming
of the day he'll be like you

You're the little fellow's idol
You're the wisest of the wise
In his little mind about you
no suspicions ever rise
He believes in you devoutly
holds all you say and do
He will say and do, in your way
when he's grown up like you

There's a wide-eyed little fellow
who believes you're always right
and his eyes are always opened
and he watches day and night
You are setting an example
every day in all you do
mmm mmm
to grow up like you

 

Leapy

 

Think before you start
or look before you leap
And Leapy is the door way to the place you're looking for
I say Leapy is the front door to the world you're looking for

 

No Matter What Goes On

 

Words: Reita Shiiyu
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

You and I, the world is always spinning round
Slowly fading, the sun is sinking down beyond the skyline
I feel my heart so calm in peace
As long as I’m beside you
I know what is so important
I don’t wanna live alone without you

Please say you’ll always stay by my side
We can make it through together
No matter what goes on

You and I, the wind is blowing across the sky
Slowly turning, green to yellow, the color of the mountains
I feel my life so full of love
I love you more than ever
I know what is so important
I don’t wanna live alone without you

Please say you’ll always stay by my side
We can make it through together
No matter what goes on

I know what is so important
I don’t wanna live alone without you

Please say you’ll always stay by my side
We can make it through together
No matter what goes on

 

Family

 

 

Words: Reita Shiiyu
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

We used to live our life,
Laughing in the sun, walking in the rain

We used to talk a lot
Spending every moment, sharing everything
Of what you call a life

We were very young
There was nothing to be afraid of
Believing everything would last eternally

Together we used to live together
Together we were always one
Living, rain or shine, our living would never change
Believing everything would last eternally

Time’s completely changed our life
What we used to be has gone and disappeared

Now we are far apart
Each has their own family, living their own lives
Going their own ways

And the river flows
We have grown up before we knew it
My dearest passed away, now lives in heaven

Tomorrow we will meet tomorrow
Tomorrow we will see again
Forever our life will last wherever we will be
Believing everything will last eternally

Living, rain or shine, our living would never change
Believing everything would last eternally

 

Will you say you follow me, always kind you will be 

 

Words: Reita Shiiyu
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

There’s a little rain on the window pane
Here I am watching them in vane

But I don’t know why I begin to sigh
Though I know that I will never cry

But then one thing for sure
The only one I love is you
What could I do to make you smile
I wanna say I love you
Time after time and day after day

Living with you means believing that our love will never end
Will you say you follow me,
always kind you will be
mmm mmm mmm to me

I wanna be with you and you know it’s true
But my words are mostly of no use

And I want you to stay every night and day
I declare it’s not the game to play

And now I feel the rain
And time are slowly going by
I feel as though they are the same
And let me say I love you
Time after time and day after day

Living with you means believing that our love will never end
Will you say you follow me,
always kind you will be
mmm mmm mmm to me

 

Feel Close To Me

 

 

Words: Reita Shiiyu
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

When the sun has lost its brightest light
And the world is just a darkest night
Could I make a special wish come true
I'd like to be a star that shines on you

Ooo, stay close to me
Ooo, feel close to me

If the wind is blowing like a storm
I’d like to hold you tight to keep you warm
If the rain begins to fall like spears
I’d like to be a shelter from the fears

You, my love, you’re the one I need the most
Take my hands, so you feel just close to me

I’m afraid that there will come a day
When something’s going to break us far away
I’ve gotta do whatever I can do
I’ll fight it out as long as I’m with you

You, my love, you’re the one I need the most
Take my hands, so you feel just close to me

 

I Won Your Love

 

 

Words: Reita Shiiyu
Music: Tsutomu Yonejima

I won your love
I wish that I could say these words
But now you are gone I don't know why
All my life depends on you and my love is all for you
Will all disappear in no time
It's me that was to blame
It's me that made you cry
After all this time my love has gone away
I won your love
I wanna tell the world it's so
And I thought you were mine, what a fool
But everyday I think of you, every night I dream of you
I still love you so, and it's true
It's me that was to blame
It's me that made you cry
After all this time my love has gone away

It's me that was to blame
It's me that made you cry
After all this time my love has gone away
