AN: This is my first published piece. Constructive reviews would be greatly appreciated, since I plan on writing more. I don't know Japanese so some of the words may not be spelled right. I am truly sorry about that.
Disclaimer: I don't own Escaflowne or the song they played at the end of it. Which is the one I am using here.
I wish… If only…
If I could control time. If I could see the future…
Namida ga ato kara afuredashite
Saigo no egao ga nijinde mienai no
I would tell you before they called me back…
Ikanaide ikanaide koko ni ite
Before they called me back to a place you can never go and I can never leave.
Sora e hikari kakenukete yuku
Konna ni chiisa na watashi dakedo
Anata wo dare yori sei ippai aishita
Sometimes I wish I never went there, wish I never met you, wish I had never fallen…
But I remember the way you protected me, and your smile…
And your eyes…
Arigatou ikutsumo no
Taisetsu no kimochi
Tewata shite kureta yo ne
I never believed in that saying until I met you…
And looked into your eyes.
"sono toki zutto watashi wa
Eyes are the windows to the soul
kie kaketa hikoukigumo wo mite ita…"
During the day…
It's hard, but I try, because of my friends and my family…
Because of you
Wasurenaide
Hitori ja nai
Hanarete mo te wo tsunaide iru
But at night…
It's impossible…
When I'm awake I think of you, but when I sleep…
I dream of us
Hajimete no koi hajimete shitta
Konna kanashimi ga aru koto
But remembering you I have courage.
Nanika ga shoumetsu shite mo nanika ga
Fatatabi yadotte
I will live my life here,
Dreaming of you.
Wakare ni kureta hohoemi wa tsuyoku ikiyou to yuu
Anata kara no messejii
I will live and wait,
But don't worry, I won't waste my life.
Itsu kitto aeru
Futari naraba
For when we meet again…
Tookutemo hitomi mitsumeau
And we will…
Kibou to yume no subete o kakete
We will finish that day and be together,
Like it should have been.
Yakusoku wo shiyou yo
Ano hi no hageshisa wo
Daite
I'll love no other but you…
Ashita saku mirai wo ikiru
Van…
