Fra-Foa: 13th Leaf
03.2.01
Artist: Fra-Foa Title: 13th Leaf Words: Mikami Chisako Music: ??? why is it that happiness puts me on the verge of tears? there you are through the soft steam rising from dinner tell me, will there come a day when you won't open those pretty eyelids anymore? I wonder how much we can do together *1 before that day comes. stop saying that someday you'll be gone because it makes my heart ache for now, all I want is to take you, with me here and now, in my arms and go to sleep. Translated By: Brian Stewart & Takako Sakuma Translator's Notes: Pretty. This is the hidden track on 13 Leaves. I've never heard it named before but since there is no official word on what it's called and it is the 13th track I named it The 13th Leaf. * 1 - This is less poetic than the Japanese, which is literally "how many scenes can we carve out together" But the metaphor is too important to lose in translation. What it basically means is, Mikami is wondering what kind of life they can have together before one of them dies. Such as dates, marriage, children etc...
