Sanctuary

Revision as of 15:37, 1 January 2008 by Sorceror Nobody (talk | contribs) (→‎English Lyrics (Sanctuary): Small tidy up of punctuation)

Santuary is the song from the opening AMV of Kingdom Hearts II. It is sung by Utada Hikaru. It was written and produced by Hikaru before it's Japanese counterpart Passion. Both the english and the japanese versions of the song are sung by Utada. "Sanctuary", like "Passion", includes several instances of reversed lyrics throughout the song. Played throughout the song is "I need more affection than you know"; in the "battleground" stanza, "So many ups and downs" and "I need true emotions" are played.

English Lyrics (Sanctuary)

In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
My sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
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
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
My sanctuary my sanctuary yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
What's left of me, what's left of me

snwod dna spu ynam os
My heart's a battleground
snoitome eurt deen I
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
snoitome eurt deen I

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

My sanctuary my sanctuary yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
What's left of me, what's left of me now

My fears and lies
Melt away
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I

Japanese Version (Passion)

Omoidaseba haruka haruka
Mirai wa doko made mo kagayaiteta
Kirei na aozora no shita de
Bokura wa sukoshi dake obiete ita

Natsukashii iro ni mado go somaru

Mae wo muitereba
Mata aemasu ka
Mirai wa doko e demo tsudzuiteru 'n da
Ooki na kanban no shita de
Jidai no utsuroi wo mite itai na

Nido to aenu
Hito ni basho ni
Mado wo akeru

Omoidaseba haruka haruka
Mirai wa doko made mo kagayaiteta
Kirei na aozora no shita de
Bokura wa itsumademo nemutte ita

Zutto mae ni suki datta hito
Fuyu ni kodomo ga umareru sou da
Mukashi kara no kimari goto wo
Tama ni utagaitaku naru yo
Zutto wasurerarenakatta no
Nengajou wa shashin tsuki kana
Watashitachi ni dekinakatta koto wo
Totemo natsukashiku omou yo

My fears my lies

Aozora no shita de
