Lyrics

English version (Sanctuary)

I need more affection than you know
In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight
I need more affection than you know
A sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie
I need more affection than you know
What's left of me, what's left of me now
I watch you
Fast asleep
All I fear means nothing
In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight
I need more affection than you know
A sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie
I need more affection than you know
What's left of me, what's left of me
So many ups and downs
My heart's a battleground
I need true emotions
I need more affection than you know
I need true emotions
You show me how to see
That nothing is whole
And nothing is broken
In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight
I need more affection than you know
A sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie
I need more affection than you know
What's left of me, what's left of me now
My fears, my lies
Melt away
I need more affection than you know

Japanese version (Passion)

I need more affection than you know
Omoidaseba haruka haruka

I need more affection than you know
Doko made mo kagayaiteta
Kirei na aozora no shita de
Bokura wa
I need more affection than you know
Sukoshi dake obiete ita
Natsukashii iro ni

Mae wo muiteru no
Mata aemasu ka

Doko e demo tsuzuiteru 'n da
Ooki na kanban no shita de
Jidai no
I need more affection than you know
Utsuroi wo mite itai na
Hitoshirezu
My heart's a battleground
I need true emotions
I need more affection than you know
I need true emotions
Nido to aenu
Hito ni basho ni
Mado wo akeru
Omoidaseba haruka haruka
Mirai wa
I need more affection than you know
Doko made mo kagayaiteta
Kirei na aozora no shita de
Bokura wa
I need more affection than you know
Itsumademo nemutte ita
My fears my lies
Aozora no shita
I need more affection than you know

Japanese > English translation

I need more affection than you know
When I remember far far back
The future
I need more affection than you know
Was bright for as far as I can see
Underneath the beautiful blue sky
We were
I need more affection than you know
A little afraid
The windows are becoming stained
With a nostalgic color
If I face forward will I meet you again?
The future
I need more affection than you know
Continues on and on
Underneath a large signboard
I want
I need more affection than you know
To watch as the times change
Hidden
My heart's a battleground
I need true emotions
I need more affection than you know
I need true emotions
I open the window
To those people and places I can never go to
When I remember far far back
The future
I need more affection than you know
Was bright for as far as I can see
Underneath the beautiful blue sky
We would
I need more affection than you know
Keep sleeping
My fears, our lies
Underneath the blue sky
I need more affection than you know

Japanese lyrics in Kanji

I need more affection than you know
思い出せば遙か遙か
未来は
I need more affection than you know
どこまでも輝いてた
きれいな青空の下で
僕らは
I need more affection than you know
少しだけ怯えていた
懐かしい色に
窓が染まる
前を向いてればまた会えますか
未来は
I need more affection than you know
どこへでも続いてるんだ
大きな看板の下で
時代の
I need more affection than you know
移ろいを見ていたいな
人知れず
My heart's a battleground
I need true emotions
I need more affection than you know
I need true emotions
二度と会えぬ人に場所に
窓を開ける
思い出せば遙か遙か
未来は
I need more affection than you know
どこまでも輝いてた
きれいな青空の下で
僕らは
I need more affection than you know
いつまでも眠っていた
My fears, our lies
青空の下
I need more affection than you know
