Orca
lyrics & music: Nobuaki Kaneko
Take a good look at the world you are beautiful
Take a good look at the shore no one will follow
Because your spyhop antenna will surely detect anything quickly
Don't forget the promises of distant days
A longing and then we
will probably meet as though we had been led to each other
A journey at daybreak fins raised high as the heavens
Without any reason I will definitely protect you
Scenery flows by please, don't come back again
Your destination is far off on the other side of the moon
It's twilight the melody you spin
to make it through the night brings a flood of tears
ORUKA
lyrics & music: Nobuaki Kaneko
Sekai wo mitegoran kimi wa utsukushii
minamo wo mitegoran daremo oitsukeyashinai
SUPAIHOPPU no ANTENA de mitsukedasu kara kitto
Wasurenaide tooi hi no ano yakusoku wo
akogare soshite bokura wa
deau darou michibikareru you ni
Akatsuki no tabidachi tentakaku nobita FIN
riyuu nante nai kanarazu kimi wo mamorou
Nagareyuku keshiki wo douka furikaeranai de
ikisaki wa haruka ano tsuki no mukou
tasogare yoru wo koete
tsumugu MERODI namida afureru
Notes:
"spyhop" does not actually involve an "antenna" of any sorts. It refers to an action common amongst young orca whales, in which a curious infant will peak its head out of he water for a glimpse of its above-water surroundings. (More info: http://www.hickerphoto.com/orca-baby-spyhop-4179-pictures.htm (picture).) The antenna here is a metaphorical one, as Orca's have great vision and are known to be perceptive.
