Life is Like a Boat

Rie Fu


Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me, and keep me strong?

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you through another day

Tooku de iki wo shiteru toumei ni natta mitai
Kurayami ni omoeta kedo mekakushisareteta dake

Inori wo sasagete atarashii hi wo matsu
Asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

Hito no kokoro wa utsuri yuku nukedashitaku naru
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de fune wo tsureteku

And every time I see your face
the oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
and soon I can see the shore

I want you to know who I really am
I never though I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

Tabi wa mada tsudzuiteku odayaka na hi mo
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de fune wo terashi dasu

Inori wo sasagete atarashii hi wo matsu
Asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

And every time I see your face
the oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
and soon I can see the shore

Unmei no fune wo kogi nami wa tsugi kara tsugi e to
Watashitachi wo osou kedo
Sore mo suteki na tabi ne doremo suteki na tabi ne

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me, and keep me strong?

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you through another day

Far away, I'm breathing, as if I were transparent
It would seem I was in the dark, but I was only blindfolded

I give a prayer as I wait for the new day
Shining vividly up to the edge of that sea

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

People's hearts change and sneak away from them
The moon in its new cycle leads the boats again

And every time I see your face
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
and soon I can see the shore

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

And still the journey continues on quiet days as well
The moon in its new cycle shines on the boats again

I give a prayer as I wait for the new day
Shining vividly up to the edge of that sea

And every time I see your face
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars
and soon I can see the shore

We are rowing the boat of fate
But the waves keep attacking us
But isn't that still a wonderful journey? Aren't any of them a wonderful journey?
