lyrics:
hontou no shiawase o sagashita toki ni
ai shi ai saretai to kangaeru you ni narimashita

toki no nagare to sora no iro ni
nanimo nozomi wa shinai you ni
sugao de naite warau kimi no sono mama o ai shite iru yue ni
atashi wa kimi no merodii ya sono
tetsugaku ya kotoba subete o mamoritooshimasu

kimi ga soko ni ikite iru to iu shinjitsu dake de koufuku na no desu


Translation:
When I started looking for true happiness
I started to think that I wanted to be in love and be loved back
And then I started to appreciate all of your strengths and the weaknesses you tend to keep hidden
You laugh and you cry and show me the real you
and I just use all my energy on you
So I don't wish for anything at all from the flow of time or the color of the sky

But I never saw any true happiness around
And I never realized that it was right there the entire time
And then it dawned on me one day that the only thing these numb fingers need are those familiar hands of yours
So if it's for that melody of yours, or
your philosophy or your words and
everything else I wouldn't mind a little effort on my part in order to protect them.

You laugh and you cry and show me the real you
and so I love you just the way you are
So I don't wish for anything at all
from the flow of time or the color of the sky.
That's why I'll protect that melody of yours and
your philosophy, and your words and everything else to the very end
You're there living your life and just knowing this simple little fact makes me so happy.

Is this the real video? It's a bit... slow.

[TheYeohGongCheung]

@kamratframjandet i think it is supposed to be like this. the blue parts when you can see Shiina wither her band, are a little faster then the rest ...there is no other version i know of.

[waynewong36]

amazing song, can someone please translate the lyrics into english.

[TheYeohGongCheung]

@waynewong36 I put the english translation in the video description ;]

[Mesoian]

The Etsuraku version needs a video like whoa.

Shiina Ringo is by far and beyond my favorite little sonic reactor.

Death by apples, so, so young

Interesting bit of information from Wiki:

"She was born with an esophageal atresia in which the esophagus narrows as it approaches the stomach. Treatment of this involved several operations, at least one of which required her right shoulder blade to be cut open. These surgeries left Sheena with large scars on her shoulder blades, said to give the impression that an angel's wings had been removed"

@kamratframjandet

this is the video version of the song, much slower than the album version
