Glass Blues
The cat with glass eyes sings, in a loud voice, clearlyThe cat with glass eyes sings, his whiskers swinging in the wind, clearly
If my voice dries up, I'll go to the river, and lick the face reflected in the waterIf I can eat a better meal than yesterday, I will laugh and say "today's a good day" as I look up to the sky
Aah, I'm always singing the best I canAah, I'm always living vigorously
The cat with glass eyes sings, even if he's hungry, clearlyThe cat with glass eyes sings, the proof that he's alive, clearlyThe cat with glass eyes shouts, his short life, clearlyThe cat with glass eyes shouts, the precious present, clearly
We were born for a reason We mustn't waste one secondEven if a storm comes or if rain falls down, I'll still laugh as I look up to the sky with all my energy
Aah, someday I'll become a star twinkling in the skyAah, until that day comes I'll sing with all my might
If my voice dries up, I'll go to the river,I will lick the face reflected in the waterWe were born for a reasonWe mustn't waste one secondThat's why I singI'm always singingI'm always singingI'm shouting the present
The cat with glass eyes became a starHis loud voice stoppedHe burned all the fragments of his lifeWe won't hear the blues he was so good at anymore
But your bluesWas engraved in everyone's heartsEven if painful things happen to usWe'll all singThe glass blues as we look up to the sky,Remembering the cat with glass eyes
Aah, I'm always singing the best I canAah, I'm always living vigorouslyAah, even if darkness enshrouds the path in front of meAah, I sing the present with all my might
