Taeko Ohnuki & Ryuichi Sakamoto Lyrics

Once I thought that I was in control
At some point, I believed that I had full authority over my life.

But that was just another trick of fate
However, that was merely a gimmick of destiny.

Playing with my life.
Destiny was manipulating my life.

There have been some times
I have encountered some moments

I was so tied up
Where I felt so tangled

And I said to myself: "Gotta break it all,"
I told myself, "I need to break free from it all,"

But didn't really try
Although, I didn't make much effort on my part.

Two hearts beating
Two hearts throbbing

In this place you made you know
In this place you have created and know of

Nothing changes
Nothing really changes

My Antarctica
But my Antarctica stands still

You can make your rhymes and paint your rules
You are permitted to create your rhymes and compose your rules

In black and white for me to memorize
In black and white, let me memorize them

Never understand
But I will never really comprehend

And there will be times
There will also come a moment

For a thousand vows
Where a thousand promises are exchanged

A thousand promises we forgot
But we eventually forgot about all of those promises

To be realized
That were meant to be fulfilled

One life pumping
One life pulsating

We make love to make our ...
We have sexual relations to make our

And we ...
And we

We'll keep the rhythm going and we'll remember
We shall maintain the beat and always recall

We'll keep the laughter flowing and we'll remember
We shall keep the fun flowing and never forget

We'll let the music jangle and we'll remember
We shall let the music play on and always recollect

This is what we made you know
This is what we created, you know

I will stay here
I will remain here

In Antarctica
In Antarctica

And you will
And you too shall

Stay here
Remain here

With me
Alongside me
