Kenshi Yonezu – Moongazing aka Tsuki wo Miteita (English Translation Lyrics)[FINAL FANTASY XVI Theme Song]
Year: 2023
Lyrics:
In the moonlight the willow sways
On this roadside I am but a stone
Visions of you come to me
Like counting sheep
If there is any meaning to our parting ways
Then you need not to be sad
From the silence to a distant sky
Fill your heart with an unwavering love
No matter which night
No matter the cost
Haven’t we been living this life together
As if in the blink of an eye
I was yearning for something Gazing at the moon
I was so afraid of the storm, when you appeared before me
And I’m so glad that it was you
It’s as if nothing before this moment ever mattered
This flame will never go out
Ever
If the wind knocks on your window
Crack it, open it just a little bit
There’s only, yes, there’s only one
In an unspeakable voice, screaming out
Even if we were to be reborn
Unable to remember
Somehow I know I’d still find you
I was burning everything Gazing at the moon
Even if someone found it pitiable
I was happy as long as you were there
Even though we might have been wrong about so much
We will never disappear
Call my name Just one more time
With that soft voice which envelops me so gently
Guided by the moonlight, I seized a branch
And that branch was you
It was you
I was yearning for something Gazing at the moon
I was so afraid of the storm, when you appeared before me
And I’m so glad that it was you
It’s as if nothing before this moment ever mattered
This flame will never go out
Ever
