Tatoe Kimi ga Hohoendemo

Even When You Smile

        Heero's second image song, which is another easy-to-sing song that's great and gets stuck in head. I don't know why, but I think of Heero's green tank top when I listen to this... x_X I'm beginning to think all the songs get stuck in my head... oh well! Back to the song... The whole beat is rather slow... um... if there's English in there, it's not decipherable. (Why are there suddenly so many ellipsis now?) I hate repeating myself, but... text in this color are the actual Japanese lyrics, and text in this color are the English translations.

Tatazumu kinou no yukue o sagasu
Sotto tozashita kioku no yami
Tomadoi kizutsuki oreta tsubasa de
Utsuro ni mitsumeru ginga no umi

Searching for yesterday, frozen in time
Into the darkness of quietly sealed up memory
Confused, with injured and broken wings
I gaze into the sea of the Milky Way

Kaeru basho o toki o
Ushinatta monotachi
Nan no tame ni
Habataku no ka?

You who have lost
A place to return to
What do you
Keep flying for?

Tatoe kimi ga hohoendemo
Yasuragi o sutete kaze wa mau
Kage mo naku hikari mo nai
Ikari to kodoku ga kousa suru ashita e

For instance, even if you smile
The wind dances without rest
Without shadow, without light
Toward tomorrow where anger and solitude meet

Ate naku hirogaru musuu no seiza
Kutsu oto dake yoru ni tokeru
Kogoeru kokoro ga muchiutsu kodou o
Nemureru daichi o yuriokose yo

The constellations are spread out limitlessly
Only the footsteps are dissolving into the night
The heartbeats are whipped by the freezing heart
Shaking up the sleeping earth

Tooku takaku haruka
Yume wa tadayotteru
Dare no tame ni
Habataku no ka?

The distant dream is drifting
Knocking far away
Who are you
Flying for?

Tatoe kimi ga hohoendemo
Fukinukeru kaze wa kizukanai
Yorokobi mo itami no nai
Kyuukutsuna ima o tobidasou ashita e

For instance, even if you smile
The wind blows by without noticing
Let's escape from this confining present
Where there is neither joy nor pain, towards tomorrow

Tatoe kimi ga hohoendemo
Yasuragi o sutete kaze wa mau
Kage mo naku hikari mo nai
Ikari to kodoku ga kousa suru ashita e

For instance, even if you smile
The wind dances without rest
Without shadow, without light
Toward tomorrow where anger and solitude meet

Tatoe kimi ga hohoendemo
Fukinukeru kaze wa kizukanai
Yorokobi mo itami no nai
Kyuukutsuna ima o tobidasou ashita e

For instance, even if you smile
The wind blows by without noticing
Let's escape from this confining present
Where there is neither joy nor pain, towards tomorrow
