A Little Pain

A Little Pain
by Olivia [Reira]

Travel to the moon
Kimi wa nemuri yume wo toku
Dare mo inai, hoshi no hikari
Ayatsurinagara

Tsuyoku naru tame
Wasureta egao
Kitto futari nara torimodosu

* Kizuite
I'm here waiting for you
Ima to wa chigau mirai ga atte mo
I'm here waiting for you
Sakebi tsuzukete
Kitto kokoro wa
Tsunagu ito wo tagutteru
Ano koro no watashi
Me wo samasu you ni
No need to cry

Travel in silence
Te wo nobaseba fureru no ni
Kimi wa tooi, sore wa
Omoide no naka no koto

Koe ga kikoeru
Me wo tojireba
Chiisana itami sae
Itoshikute

Mitsumete
I'm here waiting for you
Kaze ni fukare hitori mayotte mo
I'm here waiting for you
Sora wo miagete
Zutto kokoro wa
Te wo hirogete mamotteru
Ano koro no kimi ga
Furikaeru made
No need to cry

(Feel something, feel nothing
Listen closely, listen closely)
Wide open ears
Disarm the dream tickler
In the constant moment
(You will find me where it's quiet
Listen closely, listen closely)
Let the blood flow
Through all the spaces
Of the universe

Repeat *


English translation:

Travel to the moon
You're asleep, as you work out your dreams
There's no one here
While the light of the stars toys with me

In order to become strong
I have to remember how to smile
If we're together, I can do it

* Realize that...
I'm here waiting for you
Even if the future is different from now
I'm here waiting for you
I keep on shouting
I'm sure all I have to do
Is pull in the thread that connects our hearts
So the person I was back then
Would open her eyes
No need to cry

Travel in silence
I can reach you if I stretch out my hands
The only memory I have of you
Is so far away

I can hear your voice
If I close my eyes
Even a little pain
Would be nice

Look at me
I'm here waiting for you
Even if you get lost, blown away by the wind
I'm here waiting for you
I look up at the sky
I was protecting my heart
With outstretched hands
Until the person you were back then
Looked back
No need to cry

(Feel something, feel nothing
Listen closely, listen closely)
Wide open ears
Disarm the dream tickler
In the constant moment
(You will find me where it's quiet
Listen closely, listen closely)
Let the blood flow
Through all the spaces
Of the universe

Repeat *

*****

This song is the first ending theme for the anime Nana. I am sooooo attached to this song since I first hear it. Maybe it was because of the sad feelings portrayed by the song on most of the earlier episodes of the series.

Tsuyoku naru tame
Wasureta egao
Kitto futari nara torimodosu

This part was played mostly when Komatsu Nana (Hachi) was totally down with love, most noticeably when she was with Asano. The song often gives me the shiver, even when the episode has nothing to do with Asano. Asano-complex?

But what gives me the creep makes me stick. What am I saying here? Well, the song made my hair rise somehow, but that part is what made me listen to the song repeatedly.

Well, anyway, the song is really great. Olivia matches Reira perfectly. (I don't really like Reira actually but they somehow resembles each other so much.)

I have watched the video clip and the live clips (the one she performed at the street performance and another one, a shortened version on a TV programme) and I absolutely love her.

I tried to find the ringtone, but sadly couldn't find any. Huhu~ (-_-) And sadly to say, my phone is not among the coolest in the market. It could only play polyphonic tones. If only I could convert the MP3 file into the composer codes.

*sigh*

Anyway, here is the song if you feel like you want to give it a try.
