I'm waiting alone looking at the hourglass that's wasting away
All I need to do is turn it upside-down and it will start again
However I can't just reset the sands of time
What I want is to live my life again with you
Up upon the hill where you walked alone on that fated day
Beams of light shone down and were left behind shining on every step you'd take
All alone to this day, collecting my memories
So I'll never forget the warm feelings you shared with me
Yes you were the one, you were the one
The only one I loved
But as the wind blows away my tears
I see you're no longer near
No matter what now, I'll always love you
Most things may change, but my heart will pull through
One thing that will stay, one thing that will stay
Safe in my heart now, every night and day
The rest of my life, I will hold it dear
Fulfill our promise, let everyone hear
That we'll meet again, and I will begin my life again with you
*PAUSE*
One day we'll wake up together and you'll share the springtime air with me
The flowers will grow and the river will flow onward, whistling
I have you by my side at a table set for three
There's no need to worry because you'll always be with me
Yes you're still the one, you're still the one
The only one I love
All that I need now is for you to stay
So our dreams won't fade away
*PAUSE*
Yes you were the one, you were the one
The only one I loved
I will continue to sing just for you
Sing until our love pulls through
This is our time, this is our life
The sands of time won't stop us now
We will continue to live life happily
And remain a family
*PAUSE*
No matter what now, I'll always love you
Most things may change, but my heart will pull through
Through all the pain and through all the sorrow
I will prevail and wait for tomorrow
I will support you, you will support me
Our love will last as long as we believe
Now I will begin to walk on the path of a family with you
All I need to do is turn it upside-down and it will start again
However I can't just reset the sands of time
What I want is to live my life again with you
Up upon the hill where you walked alone on that fated day
Beams of light shone down and were left behind shining on every step you'd take
All alone to this day, collecting my memories
So I'll never forget the warm feelings you shared with me
Yes you were the one, you were the one
The only one I loved
But as the wind blows away my tears
I see you're no longer near
No matter what now, I'll always love you
Most things may change, but my heart will pull through
One thing that will stay, one thing that will stay
Safe in my heart now, every night and day
The rest of my life, I will hold it dear
Fulfill our promise, let everyone hear
That we'll meet again, and I will begin my life again with you
*PAUSE*

Yes you're still the one, you're still the one

These are my own English lyrics to the opening theme of Clannad After Story. This is a very special song to me; probably one of my favorite songs ever. And it's from one of my favorite animes ever. If you'd like to use these lyrics in a cover, by all means, be my guest. My only request is that you link me to it if it goes public somewhere and you give me credit for the english lyrics. Linked below is the Japanese version of this song in case you wanted to try singing my lyrics along with the Japanese lyrics. This was really fun to work on and although I'm no song dubbing master, I honestly think it came out pretty good. Let me know what you think of it, and also if you haven't seen Clannad, I highly urge you to see it. It's one of the greatest experiences I've ever had and I guarantee you won't be disappointed!
