    Underwater, where I met you
    The moment I held your hand, I could breathe again
    That's all I felt in that moment

    With my heart so restless, I pressed my forehead against yours
    I gave you a kiss while kneeling on the floor
    And we smiled gently

    In this cage full of hope
    Love was there without rhyme or reason
    It was just you

    Our childhood memories, what we want to eat tonight
    If everything is different
    Then why do I still want to be by your side?
    A feeling that belongs only to strangers

    If I could put those days filled with my feelings for you
    Into words, I just might be satisfied
    But it's still too far and too fragile
    A feeling you could call love
    Begins to sparkle in our eyes

    In this hell glimmering with joy
    We embraced with these restless bodies of ours
    And we became like babies once more

    There will be days where we stumble and laugh, and glasses raised with tears too
    Yet we’ll keep moving onward with everything we’ve got
    Eventually, we’ll come to the same place to rest
    In this miracle shared by two strangers

    My feelings for you put a smile on my face
    So for now, I step forward with each passing day, so I can walk on my own
    By loneliness's side is
    Something you could call courage

    In those words that aren’t enough
    In those memories that slip away
    We were always there

    If I could put those days filled with my feelings for you
    Into words, I just might be satisfied
    But it's still too far and too fragile
    Yet strong like love

    All those days I spent thinking of you
    Are packed in this song that's meant for you
    By loneliness's side is
    A feeling you could call love
    And the two strangers start walking together

    Let’s take
    Something out of nothing
    Out of the ordinary
    Breaking rules to create our own way
    Playing every day

    Let’s chase
    All the yellow magic
    Till we count to a hundred
    Running directly to you today
    Playing over again

    Let's create something -- what an insane suggestion
    Directly from a place where nobody's around
    Let's create only one, yeah, that’s yellow magic
    Replaying this game that never grows old

    I was reborn
    My billionth fresh restart
    Is to play in this dull world once more
    Hold the flowers and cards I've been dealt
    And I'll change destiny itself

    Left out and forced out
    If I shift the world to the side, I’ll be in the limelight

    Let's create something -- what a crazy suggestion
    From a place where nobody cares
    Let’s create a beam of the unknown, yeah, that’s yellow magic
    And so I replayed this game without an end
    Progress for you
    Giving it to the outcasts

    I returned from the brink of death
    The meaning of life is to play with life itself
    We’re playful creatures in this fragile and crushed civilization

    Confined inside
    Change your mind and think outside the box

    Let's come up with a bright idea with some flair right now
    From the place where withered tech blossomed
    Watching laterally as the ordinary waves, the future stumbles on, and a new way of thinking emerges
    Repeating tremendous amounts of learning

    In the vast ocean of time, on the waves of hustle and bustle
    Show me your surprised smile

    Let’s run right now, our adventure of creation awaits
    That's impossible
    Even if everything was just a ridiculous delusion
    A new modality and landscape emerge in front of me
    I clutched my sash and hit replay

    All over again

    Let's create something -- what an insane suggestion
    Directly from a place where nobody's around
    Let's create only one, yeah, that’s yellow magic
    Keep replaying this game that never grows old


    3 Dancing On The Inside (New Year's Eve)

    We cross paths every once in a while
    If we close the door and tomorrow comes
    Let's have fun together

    Let's dance on the inside
    Let's dance on our own
    And just let our heartbeats loose as is
    Let's live and dance
    We'll cross paths in our own spaces

    Let's sing on the inside
    On the flipside of our sorrows
    Let's link hands through all the songs we sing
    Let's live and see each other again
    I get the feeling we'll cross paths in our own spaces

    We mock each other all the time
    That's human nature but I'm fed up with it
    Goodbye
    Let's change together

    I'll cook up some food
    Make it on my own
    Polish my bathtub and just soak
    Once the clouds blend with the light through the crack of the window
    I'll finish my lunch

    You can close your eyes and cover your ears
    And when we're tired of it all, let's talk things through
    "What are you up to?"
    I'm singing this song all on my own

    There isn’t enough love
    No matter how messed up and crazy the world gets
    Your heart keeps beating and you keep on living
    Let's dance on the inside of your heart
    Let's dance on our own
    And just let our heartbeats loose as is
    Let's live and dance
    Let's accept that we've always been on our own
    And let's move forward

    Let's sing on our own
    On the flipside of our sorrows
    Let's link hands through all the songs we sing
    Let's live and hug it out so that someday
    We can share our love again and again


    4 Tomato

    I wonder how long it's been since you came into my life
    I have more days and nights you scold me than the ones I get angry with you

    No matter how many times the cells in my body get replaced,
    I’ll still remember that smile of yours

    No one knows what tomorrow will bring
    But for now,
    I'm happy that we made it to today

    So I’ll do the cooking tonight
    “That’s so unlike you,” you laugh
    I don't know if you'll like
    This tomato pasta I made for you

    The future doesn't belong to anyone
    You’re the one who makes it
    That's all I can tell you

    So I’ll do the cooking tonight
    “That’s so unlike you,” you laughed
    I don't know if you'll like
    This tomato pasta I made for you

    I dedicate this dish to your stomach
