Lyrics
In-game English Lyrics
There in the distance
a bird awaits your embrace
With folded wings
it won't fly anywhere without you
Within its time-worn cage
those days fall out of memory
They all fade away
into the blinding light
Won't someone please hear my call?
Shouting up to the skies
Shouting up to beyond the skies
thinking of you
The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
can't compare to the longing I feel
Though the way is long and dark
my love will find a way to you
The distance to heaven
The distance to the sky
The falling rain surrounds me
like a gentle wave washing away
all of my wishes
Can someone tell me,
how long has it been
since I last saw the light of day?
Yet even the faintest light
brings my pain back to me
Won't someone please take my wings?
These wings can't fly
but if they could
I'd fly away from this pain
The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
Whenever I close my eyes
I see an image of you in my heart
fading into the darkness
The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
can't compare to the longing I feel
Though the way is long and dark
my love will find a way to you
The distance to heaven
The distance to the sky
The falling rain surrounds me
like a gentle wave washing away
all of my wishes
The distance to heaven
The distance from my heart
The distance to heaven
The distance to the sky
The distance to heaven
