Here
KANNO YOKO feat. SAKAMOTO MAAYA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here, people look for heaven
Livin' in a fear of God
Losing themselves,hiding
forever
Afraid of what they're not
She spent her whole life
Chasing stardust
And then
when she could taste it
A million dollars of pride
And still unhappy
So sad, she couldn't feel,
she couldn't feel
I know the story
So sad, she couldn't feel,
she couldn't feel
I know the score
Here I am,
I've walked a promise
But it can take so long
Here I am,
I've walked the shadows
It's time that I move on
With myself,
I share the silence
I just walk along
Walk along

Here, people hide in darkness
Watchin' their shadows grow
Tears of gold or nothing
matters
Selling themselves out short
Take diamonds
for hope and fame for caring
The things she couldn't give up
She blows out the candle
of love
And loses her way out
So mad, she couldn't see,
she couldn't see
I know the story
So mad, she couldn't see,
she couldn't see
I know the score
Here I am,
I've walked a promise
But it can take so long
Here I am,
I've walked the shadows
It's time that I move on
With myself,
I share the silence
I just walk along
I walk along

People
here choose not to listen
Afraid of what they might hear
Believing in
lies and contradiction
Can be so safe and warm
And so many people
tried to tell her
You know she wouldn't listen
A million voices called out
She just walked away
So loud, she couldn't hear,
she couldn't hear
I know the story
So loud, she wouldn't hear,
she wouldn't hear
I know the score
Here I am,
I've walked a promise
But it can take so long
Here I am,
I've walked the shadows
It's time that I move on
With myself,
I share the silence




I just walk along
I walk along
