The Price of Freedom
Takeharu Ishimoto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gentle eyes of beauty bringing peace to me now
The silent peace so soft it passes right through my arms
I'm wishing that this moment lasts a little bit more
You saved me through the rocky roads
You gave me half of your precious soul
I wanna hear you laugh some more
Don't wanna see you go
Even when we part, you will never be gone
Look into the sky and see the dream we never lost
Can't you see it coming true?
We made it through
I share this time with you
I wanna see your smile
Close your eyes, you've gone through so much, my love
All the past is now a cloud of floating memories
The sunlight shining through the long and dark nights we've walked
All that's left to do is rest and heal our hearts
Every step along the way
You gave me strength to stand my ground
There's so much to say to you
But now it's time to go
All the times we fought
, it was never just about winning or losing. We fought together as a team, and we always had each other’s back. This is what makes our bond so strong, and why even when we are apart, our connection will never disappear. In this moment, lying next to you, I am at peace. Your gentle beauty and calming presence have a way of passing right through my arms and into my soul, and I find myself wishing that time would stand still.
You have been my constant throughout the rocky roads of life. You have given me more than I deserve, and have shared your precious soul with me. I want nothing more than to hear your laughter, to experience your joy, and to never have to say goodbye. Even when life has thrown us challenges, we have faced them together, and we have emerged victorious. As we look up into the sky, we can see the dreams that we had long ago, the ones that we thought were lost. But they are not lost, they are coming true right in front of us. And it is all thanks to you.
As we close our eyes and let go of the past, we can feel the healing and rest that we so desperately need. You have been my strength, my constant, my rock, and I can never repay you for all that you have done for me. But in this moment, lying next to you, holding your hand, I am content. I share this time with you, and I want nothing more than to see your smile.

Unfortunately, it is time for us to depart
