Without Rain (Ame no Furanai... English Cover) Dedicated to People of Japan in this trying time

The song "Ame no furanai hoshi de wa aisenai darou" ("If It Doesn't Rain, Will the Stars Not Love?") is just a beautiful song, but it seems just the song that is needed during Japan's struggles with the Earthquakes and Tsunami's. We're praying for Japan, know that the world is with you!
You can hear the original here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WU53jSHjXSA

I didn't change the meaning at all, just fit the lyrics to flow better in English :)

Please donate to the relief efforts, find out more here: http://newsfeed.time.com/2011/03/11/five-ways-you-can-help-earthquake-and-tsu...

Lady Gaga has made special bracelets to support the releif effort also: http://ladygaga.shop.bravadousa.com/Product.aspx?cp=14781_42444&pc=BGAMLG88

Notes: You can hear me sniffle and clear my throat and I forgot about. I've got a cold, but this is all I can so to show my support (And donate.) The orginal had a Chinese chorus in it, so I replaced the Chinese chorus with a Japanese one as a show of solidarity.

This isn't my best but I'm seriously ill XD

Lyrics:
With my heart inside the city
Walking down the roads, busy as they are, it still feels a bit lonely
And these dreams are all around me
They make it much harder to face reality

If we can reach out to each other
I just know it will get better.
There is no other way that I know
than to help one another

In a world that doesn't rain, we would never be able to see the rainbow
We have to do what we can right now, so the future will be brighter, you know
We have learned to love, and we will learn how to love again
Let us sing our song so that the whole world will know

Right now where we came from
We hope and pray that our families are safe inside of their homes
Even when your just on the phone
Somehow, I really don't feel all that alone

If we can smile through all the tears
It will get better than it appears
We aLL deserve our happiness
throughout our many years.


In a world that feels no pain, we would never know what happiness could ever be
Good times, bad times, are all part of our beautiful exsistance, you see
We have learned to dream, and we will learn how to dream again
Let us sing our song, in our special melody

ame no furanai hoshi de wa aishi aenai darou
boku tachi wa mirai made tasuki wo watasu shimei
riku no nai hoshi ni wa naranai you ni
boku tachi ga sei ippai utau

In a world that doesn't rain, we would never be able to see the rainbow
We have to do what we can right now, so the future will be brighter, you know
We have learned to stand, and we will learn how to stand again
Let us sing our song so that the whole world will know
