B'z - Eien no Tsubasa

B'z - Eien no Tsubasa

I love the mv, i love the song, i totally dig Koshi's voice and, to put it simply, i love B'z!

A little bit about B'z:

B'z (ビーズ Bīzu) is a Japanese hard rock duo comprised of Tak Matsumoto (松本 孝弘 Matsumoto Takahiro, composition, guitar) and Koshi Inaba (稲葉 浩志 Inaba Kōshi, lyrics, vocals).

B'z were the first artists from Asia to have their hand prints and signatures put up in the Hollywood's Rock Walk.


Here's the lyrics to Eien no Tsubasa:

(romaji)

Masshiroi kumo no tadayou hate nani ga aru no
Sakura no oka de nekoronde yume wo miteta

Itsuka modottekitai bashou wa kitto koko ni aru

Eien no tsubasa ga hoshii mata au toki no tame ni
Hakanai kono inochi wo asa hi no youni moyashi nagara
Habataite yukou

Akari no shita wo futari nori jitensha koide
Tsuyoku dakitsuku aa nukumori namida ga desou
Ushinatte wa ikenai mono wo shitte shimatta yo

Eien no tsubasa hiroge tada kimi no tame dake ni
Mabayui sono egao ga kienai youni negai nagara
Habataite yukou

Bokura ga itsumo mesasu no wa
Itoshii monotachi no shiawase
Setsubou no saki ni kanarazu aru
Hitosuji no kibou no hikari

Eien no tsubasa hiroge tada kimi no tame dake ni
Mabayui sono egao ga kienai youni negai nagara
Eien no tsubasa ga aru nara hiroraka na kaze ni notte
Itsuka kuru yasashii mirai wo mune ni egaki shinji nagara
Habataite yukou

Spread your wings and fly away


(translation)

What is there at the end of the floating pure-white clouds?
I was lying down on a hill of cherry blossoms, dreaming

Here is where I’ll want to return to someday

I want eternal wings for the next time we meet
Burning this ephemeral existence of mine like the morning sun
I’ll fly on

The two of us on a bicycle, pedaling beneath the streetlights
Ah, the warmth that holds on to me tightly, I feel like I might cry

I’ve just come to know what it is that I cannot allow myself to lose

Spreading my eternal wings - and it’s all for you -
Wishing that that blinding smile of yours should never fade
I’ll fly on

What we’re always striving for is the happiness of those dear to us
The single ray of hope that can always be found past despair

Spreading my eternal wings - and it’s all for you -
Wishing that that blinding smile of yours should never fade
If I have eternal wings I’ll ride this pure wind
Picturing a gentle future that’ll come one day in my heart, and believing in it
I’ll fly on

(Spread your wings and fly away)
