vanity
Kajiura Yuki feat. Emily Bindiger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lovers are in pain
They blame and pick on each other
You play melodies of love
Forgotten phrases
Tender and sweet
Come a little bit closer
(La la la la la la la)
The melody's fading.....
Now or never, love will go
I'll be there by your side
Share your fears in the silent redemption
Touch my lips, hold me tight
Live in vanity for a while
As winter melts in the sun
Boys will be out running and reaching for the light
Oh mother please find me in that place
Before the memories tear us into pieces
Clinging to affection, we somehow do learn to live
(La la la la la la la)
In endless motion
Never coming back, love will go
You'll be there by my side
You may never know my devotion
Feel my breath in the quiet night
Live in vanity for ever
Won't you feel my gentle emotion
Let us live in peace with conviction
If you're here please hold me

The melody's fading.....
The music is getting quieter and less noticeable
Now or never, love will go
If we do not act now, our love will cease to exist
I'll be there by your side
I will always be with you
Share your fears in the silent redemption
Open up about your worries during our quiet moments together
Touch my lips, hold me tight
Kiss me and embrace me tightly
Live in vanity for a while
Let us indulge in luxurious and selfish behaviors momentarily
As winter melts in the sun
Springtime approaches
Boys will be out running and reaching for the light
People will be out and about, making the most of the newfound warmth
Oh mother please find me in that place
Please help me locate my desired spot
Before the memories tear us into pieces
Before past reminiscences damage our relationship irreparably
Clinging to affection, we somehow do learn to live
We manage to survive through our attachment to each other
(La la la la la la la)
No meaning
In endless motion
In a state of continuous activity
Never coming back, love will go
If we do not treasure our love, it will vanish forever
You'll be there by my side
You will always accompany me
You may never know my devotion
Perhaps you will never understand how much I love you
Feel my breath in the quiet night
Sense my presence during the serene hours
Live in vanity for ever
Let us live selfishly indefinitely
Won't you feel my gentle emotion
Do you not sense my tender feelings?
Let us live in peace with conviction
Let us live harmoniously with confidence
If you're here please hold me
If you are present, please embrace me
