Let's Sing: Suikoden II 'Reminiscence'「回想」を歌ってみた（幻想水滸伝２）

Out of all the lyrics I've done so far I am most proud of this one. I composed lyrics to the theme 'Reminiscence' from Suikoden 2. I was a little daunted to try putting my vocals to this song because it's so poignant and so important to the story of the game, but I think I did it justice. Listen and tell me what you think!
幻想水滸伝２の主題歌「回想」を使って作詞して、歌ってみました。

「破片〜回想」 "Fragments - Reminiscence"

記憶の底まで探してみても
昔の幸せは
破片しかない
Kioku no soko made sagashitemite mo
mukashi no shiawase wa
hahen shika nai

Though I search through to the very bottom of my memories,
only fragments remain of the happiness we once had

君と一緒の日々は
夢だっだように
時の流れに
色あせてくるだけ
Kimi to issho no hibi wa yume datta you ni
toki no nagare ni
iroasetekuru dake

The days we spent together seem like a dream;
in the flow of time their colours only fading

戻れても　（もしも、あの時に戻れても）
敢えて戻らないことにするよ　（敢えて、戻らないことにするよ）
いづれ記憶にまたなるから　（戻れても、いつかまた、記憶になるでしょ。どうしても。。。）
Modoretemo (Moshimo, ano toki ni modoretemo)
aete boku wa modoranai koto ni suru yo (aete, modoranai koto ni suru yo)
izure kioku ni mata naru kara (modoretemo, itsuka mata, kioku ni naru desho? Doushitemo...)

Even if we could go back, I would choose not to.
Because it would all only become memories once more.
(If... we could go back to that time, I would still choose not to. Even if we could go back, it would all turn back into memories someday right? No matter how we tried...)

この幸せは残したい
破片でいい
Kono shiawase wa nokoshitai
hahen de ii

I want to hold onto this happiness I still have.
A fragment is enough.

Sorry British! I reuploaded this because I messed with the volume of the spoken part! But thank you for your comment!

RunsWithBritish:

Well done, good sir! I dare say you took on quite a task. Not only writing lyrics, but ones that actually worked with the message of the game. I appreciate you!

[Fatlinerdadd]

This is really cool.

You made me cry, seriously! I would love if you could send me the mp3, I think your job was great. Lyrics are so deep and inherent, I could think this song is from the game. And your voice is so gentle you could be Riou's seiyuu :)
