Melodies of Life

This song always reminds me of
the greatest loving and caring friends....
that I have met all along
the melodies of my life.
I am very greatful for having all of you
....as memories that made up who I am today.
For you all to enjoy........

(I don't want to upload the song on my blog.
So, here it is the site that I found where you can listen the song and read lyrics.
Personally, I love the Japanese version better.)

Melodies of Life
Vocals: Emiko Shiratori

Alone for a while I've been searching through the dark
For traces of the love you left inside my lonely heart
To weave by picking up the pieces that remain
Melodies of life--love's lost refrain

Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why
We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said goodbye
And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told?
Let them ring out loud till they unfold
In my dearest memories, I see you reaching out to me
Though you're gone, I still believe that you can call out my name

* A voice from the past, joining yours and mine
Adding up the layers of harmony
And so it goes, on and on
Melodies of life,
To the sky beyond the flying birds--forever and beyond

So far and away, see the bird as it flies by
Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky
I've laid my memories and dreams upon those wings
Leave them now and see what tomorrow brings

In your dearest memories, do you remember loving me?
Was it fate that brought us close and now leaves me behind?

* Repeat

If I should leave this lonely world behind
Your voice will still remember our melody
Now I know we'll carry on
Melodies of life
Come circle round and grow deep in our hearts
As long as we remember

Japanese Version Lyrics
Melodies of Life

ate monaku sama yotte ita
tegakari monaku sagashi tsuzuketa
anata ga kureta omoi de kokoro iyasu toka nishite

yakusoku mo suru kota monaku
kawasu koto bama kimetari mosezu
dakishime soshite tashika mete hibiwa nido to kaeranau

kioku no naka no te ofuru anata
wawatashi no namae o yobuku toga deki runo

afureru sono namida o kagaya kuyuu kini kaete
inochi wa tsuzuku yoruo koa uta gau koto nonai ashitare totsuzuku

tobu tori no mukou no sorade ikutsu
no kioku azuke tada rou
hakanai kibou mo yume mo todokanai basyo ni wasurete

Meguri aunowa guuzen toi e runo
wakareru toki ga kanarazu kuru noni

kieyuku unmei demo kimi ga ikiteiru kagiri
inochi watsuzuku eien ni sono chikara no kagiri doko made mo

watashi ga shinou tomo kimi ga ikiteiru kagiri
inochi watsuzuku eien ni sono chikara no kagiri
doko made no tsuzuku
