Whisk Me Away On the Voice of the Wind
Capture me...
The wind gently sighing through the rose bushes
Stirring their sweet scent as their dresses unfold
The Moon tenderly illuminates a hidden path
I can hear the stars singing twinkling notes
Trudging forward, there's a light that awaits us
A disruption of tears crash down
How have I lost my courage?
I am thrown before an emerald mirror
I see a girl who is unknown but known by me
What has happened to her?
Movements that imitate each other I miss this young girl
She asks me why I shut her away
And I couldn't answer her through my tears...
I want to beg her to come back but I can't anymore...
That little girl,
The innocent, kind, naive girl was me...
But as I grew I slowly lost her...
One day, she just disappeared...
I miss her so very much
The person I have turned into....
That's now the real me
