There was something about the way this song flowed that made me want to write it. It was something a little out of the ordinary too. I tend to use rhymes frequently, but this song didn't call for them all that much. It was more about telling the story. One thing I've noticed about Japanese music is that the choruses don't really use as much repetition. Much of the time, they bring the story forward as much as the verses do. Either way, here's another depressing Christmas song for ya!

Winter Wish

It's just a little moment in time,
But just the feeling when I'm here with you.
Hey, inside my heart, inside of my mind,
Doesn't matter how cold it is outside.

I look in your eyes, I listen to your voice,
When you're near, it's my soul's rejoice.

The fresh falling snow, flakes rolling along my face-
They're not alone: They're joined by tears.
Forever longing for you by my side;
To take my hands and never let them go.
The cold winter sky, the sight of the stars in space-
They're shining on the two of us.
Snow on our shoulders, the sight of your breath,
My love for you- feelings deep as my winter wish.

Sometimes I dream we're walking alone,
We're getting closer as we see the sights.
Hey, I'll dream as long as I can condone,
But it never replaces real-life.

Somewhere far away, I still can taste your kiss,
But today, I can only wish.

The start of a tale- a storied romance.
When evening comes around, you're here with me.
A little story of falling in love;
You take my hands and never let them go.
The hope for tomorrow's happy ending,
Where we can be at peace, forevermore.
The warmth you give me, the touch of your hand,
And your embrace- it's as deep as my winter wish.

The fresh falling snow, flakes rolling along my face-
They're not alone: They're joined by tears.
Forever longing for you by my side;
To take my hands and never let them go.
The cold winter sky, the sight of the stars in space-
They're shining on the two of us.
Snow on our shoulders, the sight of your breath,
My love for you- feelings deep as my winter wish.
