So long, my colorful girl feat.GUMI / さよならわたしのカラーガール (Retake)

A song of partings from the heart of the departed. I never liked the mix on this song before, so I redid it and made some minor tweaks to the piano. I think it makes a pretty big difference. Additionally, I wanted an image, which gave me an excuse to draw something for the first time in a millennia. Music/lyrics/tuning/art: Breadbox/David Toth Diva: GUMI English V3 Lyrics: In the inky black, we chased away the past Walking close, I followed your back When you turned, I laughed and touched your shaking hand Those moments defined who I am Remembering, you said to me: “At times it’s hard to breathe” While trembling, the deafening regret had stalled your feet No more crying, my dear… don’t cover your ears You’re more than the monsters you fear Lift your head to the sky! Tomorrow is beckoning No hiding your eyes—I’ll stay here by your side When the night passes on, It’s all just a memory So take the morning in stride At the end, I sighed and fled your teary eyes As I cursed the flowing of time You had held me tight and struggled not to cry I hurt you with all of my lies You ran away from all the shame that left you in a daze A bitter hate for everything you tried and failed to save Let me shelter your heart…It’s cold in the dark Remember the warmth of my arms No more tears, turn ahead—I speak in the radiance The warmth you had left will blossom once again When you’re thinking of me, I pray that you’re smiling And know it isn’t the end Through summers and winters, we followed the sky You were laughing so kindly, a beacon in the night So keep walking tomorrow and carry the light Cause I’m always there by your side When I see you again, I pray that I’m smiling No pain, no regret, will take you from my hands So I’ll go on ahead… I’m sorry for everything And glad you guided me home I loved you more than you know #vocaloid #gumi #original
