If you’re watching over your shoulder to look who’s stalking now
If you think my time is up, and it’s time to leave the ball
If you think it’s acid rain that’s rolling down my face
I just want you to know my name

You’re my shimai
I am your bro
Your wings unfold
Take off, fly home

Pale and bright and black and white, snapshots in my mind
Colorful and toyful, joyful memories scattered around
Gone all hurtful or desertful, it’s vivid all I see
The bride is coming down the aisle, the most beautiful scene

You’re my shimai
I am your bro
Your wings unfold
Fly out, fly home

I know that day is coming this way, as sure as yesterday
When the ore is in the open, the jewels on display   
And when you see it, when you know who I am
That is all I need, carry on

You’re my shimai
I am your bro
Your wings unfold
Take off, fly home
