Accounting paper is over!! Now I have the two hardest units left which I have to study both for but it's 1.40am so I'm going to bed.
Not before a TL, that is 8D
ありがとうのうた (Arigatou no Uta) can pretty much be called the first V6 song that I fell in love with back in those years when I didn't know as much about them. Truth is, I keep colliding into them some point in life though I didn't realise it; like watching Gakkou for a short period, or listening to "Change the World" and "Darling" and liking their songs but I didn't actually put effort into knowing more about them until this year *regret* OTL Biggest fandom ever, hands down. Not even buying every single wFL single/album or flying to Japan for the w-inds. concerts TWICE, or harassingemailing doujinka for doujins or scanlating Nitro+CHiRAL stuff or joining Square-Enix members Japan or starting an Akazukin Cha Cha club back in elementary school could compare to this fandom because I KNOW I'm gonna do something (legally and not dangerously) stupid again XD
Anyway, I digress. This song caught me immediately the moment I heard the beginning of the song (first thing I thought about the instruments was "Whoa! Showa!"), and the lyrics even more ;A; I've always associated this song with everyone I love, who totally makes life worth living for, my family, my RL friends, anyone's who's made me laugh/I've made laugh, children, nature, pets and of course, all you lovely LJ buddies here!

If you haven't heard it before XD I am soooo gonna figure out the piano keys for this ;w;
So on to the thankful song lyrics XD:
V6 - ありがとうのうた
漢字
花が芽吹く姿とか 変わりゆく街だとか
ずっと気にとめないでいた 気にかける余裕もなく
僕は少し疲れてたかなあ
君がいてくれて 救われたんだ
ありがとうの言葉が今
そっと僕らを包むだろう
それはほんのささいなこと
僕は見つけられたよ
視線が合うそれだけで 声がするそれだけで
今日を生きててよかったと心から思えるんだ
君の笑顔 大切でした…。
ありがとうという言葉を
1度言うだけで笑顔が
あふれて幸せが咲く
アイを込めてありがとう
ありがとうと言わせて欲しい
たとえば何年経っても
きっと変わらず僕はまだ
今日を覚えているよ
ありがとうの言葉が今
そっと僕らを包むだろう
それはほんのささいなこと
僕は見つけられたよ
ありがとうの言葉たちが
こんなに優しくさせるよ
笑ってシワをふやして
日々を重ねてゆこう
僕は見つけられた…

Translation
The budding form of flowers, or the changing city,
I've never paid attention to these sort of things, I couldn't even bother to be concerned
Maybe I'm just a bit tired
You saved me, just by being there
Right now the words "thank you"
are engulfing us, right?
That is the small, slight matter
I found it1
Just by meeting each other's glances, when I just hear your voice
"I'm glad I'm alive today", is what my heart can feel
Your smile is precious...
The word "thank you"
just saying it once, an overflowing happiness
blooms from my smile
Thanks for all your love
I want to say thank you
For example even if many years pass by
I'm sure that I'll still be the same
remembering this day
Maybe I'm just a bit tired
You saved me, just by being there
Right now the words "thank you"
are engulfing us, right?
That is the small, slight matter
I found it
The words "thank you"
can be this gentle2
Let's smile and add on wrinkles
Let's increase those sort of days
I found it
1The lyrics intended it to be as ambiguous as to what is actually found, so I'm leaving it that way too
2I couldn't think of a better way to put this OTL I'm always open to suggestions =)
P.S. Sis made pudding today with the new bottles we bought. I can't wait to eat them! Pics will come after exams (there's a pileup of food pics in my camera now XD) ;A; Okay, beddy bye for me ;w;
