Cotton Tree

© music and lyrics by Koki @kokinozawa -The main song of the 'Chimney Birds'- Lyrics I'm stretching my arms to the endless sky. I close my eyes and think, "I'm here now..." Weary moments (lasting without sounds) Watching the clouds (moved by the wind) Yesterday Are just small grains of sand That slip through my hands (my fingers) They're floating aimlessly Until I can no longer see them I'm always searching for tomorrow (always) While the seeds I sow grow into the past Learned from tears, keeping a joyous heart Now I walk forward and start anew la la la... la la la... Don't want to let them go, Don't want them to change Under the rain, I think. "I'm here now..." Tearful moments (stopped without sound) Under the clouds (illuminated by the sun) Yesterday Is like a small seed of grain Nurtured by the sun and rain (sun and rain...) It shoots roots deeply (inside my heart) Until it's grown strong Old days blossom like a cotton tree But the scene I see will eventually pass Even though the tree withers and all the flowers die (even they die) In my heart, they are forever in bloom la la la Never fade away la la la Never fade away "Even though all the flowers die... In my heart, they are forever in bloom"
