See You Space Cowboy...(translation)

Yoko Kanno


When everything is finished,
Though my ears are still shut, you speak to me
Your words are being washed away
They can't bring relief as they flow to tomorrow 
In the night when even prayer has vanished
You go on towards what you believe
The teardrop-colored falling stars pass by
So that they can mock you

Unchangeable things and the like don't exist

Yet, even if the mortal life comes to an end,
This love cannot be erased
That is to live forever
Even when the dream hides in the darkness 
I got a rainbow 
In my hands...

Crossing over inside your heart, a voice speaks 
"You can erase even unchangeable things" 
Praying before the truth in the morning 
Love will once again return to this place

Love never dies 
Love never fails 
Love never ever fades away

Although mortal life will someday end, 
This love can't be erased 
It is something that will live forever 
Escaping from the darkness

When you pass phantoms 
Frozen in time 
Love is waiting over the rainbow 
A thousand rays of light are waiting 
You got a rainbow 
Rainbow in your hands...
