Connect Karaoke - English

Predictably enough, this is me, singing Connect, by ClariS (best known as the opening theme for Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica), with English lyrics.

As always, the translation is my own work. The lyrics are included below for convenience. And no, I don't look like Jesus any more. Deal with it.

---

How could I forget the promise I made to you, my friend?
I hold it so close to my heart
And though the black of night closes in around me, I will go on

Oh, how much longer must I go on waiting here
'Til the future that I lost that day will return to greet me?

Always these doubts are lingering somewhere in my mind
But I cast them all aside, and seek the path I know I'll find

Though the sands of time never cease to flow
There's a new beginning waiting down below
Though the world may change, still my heart will remain
So it's time to open the tightly-bolted door

Now I feel my heart awaken, I'm racing onwards
To the future I know I must find
And though the path I follow is never easy
High up above
I can see the sky in all of its brilliant glory waiting for me
So what do I have to fear?
For whatever happens now, my path is clear

Over my shoulder I see my beloved friends
And I find a tender comfort there in the warmth they give me

Although this world is twisted far beyond repair
I can always look around and see their faces smiling there

All the wildest joy and the deep despair
True emotion comes from all the bonds we share
If the words I cry reach your heart, show you why
Then a miracle can't be all that far away

How could I forget the promise I made to you, my friend?
I hold it so close to my heart
And though the black of night closes in around me, I will go on
No matter how wide the river that stands before me
I can cross it, there's nothing I can't achieve
My tomorrow will arrive; I still believe

Wand'ring in a broken world, with nobody here to guide me
Somehow there was only one destination I could reach

Now I feel my heart awaken, I'm racing onwards
To the future I know I must find
And though the path I follow is never easy
High up above
I can see the sky in all of its brilliant glory waiting for me
So what do I have to fear?
For whatever happens now, my path is clear

Tomorrow's always near

The lyrics are just... wow! It fits perfectly.

Is it okay if I make an audition with your lyrics though? I might be able to bring up a chorus. XD

I will credit you afterwards.

[cnet128]

@L3irus By all means.

[LamunesKI]

You're great! Do you do theatre?

[cnet128]

@LamunesKI Well, I used to act in musicals back when I was in high school. Haven't done anything of the sort lately, though.

[cnet128]

As long as I'm appropriately credited, I don't see why not.
