Lyrics: L'Arc-En-Ciel. Niji (Rainbow).

toki ha kanadete omoi ha afureru
togiresou na hodo toumei na koe ni
arukidashita sono hitomi he
hateshinai mirai ga tsuzuiteru

hontou ha totemo kokoro ha moroku
daremo ga hibiwareteiru
furidashita ame ni nurete
kimi ha mata tachidomatteshimau kedo
shinjite kureru kara

dare yori takaku sora he to chikazuku
kagayaki wo atsume hikari wo motometeru
moetsukite mo kamawanai sa
subete ha shinjitsu to tomo ni aru

'shounen ha hito no kage ni yuganda nikushimi wo mita'
sonna sekai ni nante mou nanimo mitakunai yo
nanimo! nanimo! nanimo!

kioku no tenbin ni kaketa
hitotsu no kizu ga tsuriau ni ha
hyaku no ai wo you suru...
keredo kokoro ha kaigan no ishi no you
nami ni nomare, takusan no kizu wo eru koto ni yori
ai ha keisei sareteyuku

sore demo omou anata no koto wo
kisetsu ga nagareteite mo...
me wo tojite itsumo miteta fuukei no you ni
nandome ka no ame mo agatta

setsunai hito yo kanawanu negai yo
naze kono mune kara ai ha umareteyuku?
sakimidareta hana ha yurete
shizunda daichi ni furisosogu

ai wo toki ha kanadete omoi ha afureru
togiresou na hodo toumei na koe ni
arukidashita sono hitomi he
owaranai mirai wo sasageyou

(chorus)
stairway to heaven
labyrinth to heart



(Translation)

Time plays, the feelings overflow
I began to walk,
to a voice so faint and wispy
to your eyes,
the endless future goes on.

the truth is, the heart is a very fragile thing
we've all got cracks.
wet by a sudden downpour,
you've come to a standstill again but,
because you believe me

I'll get closer to the sky, higher than anyone
gathering bits of glimmer, I want the light
even if I burn myself out, it doesn't matter
all is with truth

'the boy saw a twisted hatred in the shadows of others'
I don't want to see anything of such a world.
Nothing! Nothing! Nothing!

it takes one hundred loves,
to balance one scratch
on the scales of memory...
but the heart is like a rock on the shore
swallowed by the waves,
love will take shape
through the many scratches.

yet still I think of you
even as the seasons go by...
I close my eyes,
and like I'd seen it do many times before
yet another rain let up.

oh sad person. unfulfilled wish.
why is it love is born from this heart?
on the sunken earth flowers blooming all over
tremble in the downpour

Time plays love. the feelings overflow
I began to walk,
to a voice so faint and wispy
to your eyes,
I'll devote an endless future.
L'arc-En-Ciel
