parent song (live from the internet)

This song is based on an unfortunately true story. I did a search for someone I knew in college and I found out that she had passed quite young. I gave this song a happier ending, but it still chokes me up a bit.

LYRICS
(C)2025 Ggreg Snyder

[Intro]
I can still see her leaning on the window ledge in the dorm,
Laughing at my bad jokes,
Her notebooks full of doodles, stars and arrows,
Coffee always in her hand.
Been thirty years… and tonight I just wondered—
Where’d she end up?

[Verse 1]
I typed her middle name, the one she never used,
An age to match my own, a little trail of clues.
No picture, just a town she might’ve passed through,
I sat there chasing shadows in the screen’s blue glow.

[Chorus]
I searched for her,
With a heart full of old refrains.
I searched for her,
Through the wires and the windowpanes.

[Verse 2]
An obituary popped up, with the letters all the same,
And my chest went hollow at the weight of her name.
Thought she’d left the world a few years back,
I whispered it softly, the screen faded black.

[Chorus]
I searched for her,
And I thought I had found the end.
I searched for her,
Like a fool looking back again.

[Bridge]
But the years didn’t line up, the town was all wrong,
She never lived there, not where she belonged.
Funny how the heart can break in a minute,
Over somebody’s story with a stranger in it.

[Verse 3]
Then another page opened, a clearer trail,
Oregon skies and a wedding veil.
Two kids in the picture, smiling wide,
Her husband standing steady at her side.

[Verse 4]
And I leaned back quiet, let the silence fall,
Grateful she’d made it through it all.
Not mine to keep, but good to see,
She’s happy where she’s meant to be.

[Chorus – Reprise]
I searched for her,
Through the years and the miles that fly.
I searched for her,
And I finally found her life.

I Searched For Her

I made a mistake and was hit by hail.
But still, I borrowed solitude.
When I think of being an adventurer, I chuckle.
Becoming a traveler is also impossible.
勘違いをして　あられにふられ
それでも孤独を借りてしまう
冒険者といえば　失笑苦笑
旅人になるのも　無理難題
year  oo
This is the garden of time.
ここは時の庭
ここは　銀河系の青い星
ここは　島国の中の島
ここは　木蓮の花咲く庭
ここは　古くて新しい世界
ここは時の庭
year.
This is a blue planet floating in the galaxy.
This is an island within an island nation.
This is a garden where magnolias bloom.
This is an old and new world.
This is the garden of time.
Year.
明日を作り出せぬままでも
誰かの言葉に飲み込まれない
ぐうの手も出なくなる前に
風を吹かせるふりをしている
時空旅行
時の庭
ここは　銀河系の青い星
ここは　島国の中の島
ここは　木蓮の花咲く庭
ここは　古くて新しい世界
Even if I can't create tomorrow,
I won't be swallowed up by someone's words.
Before doing anything,
I pretend to let the wind blow.
Traveling through time and space.
The garden of time.
This is a blue planet floating in the galaxy.
This is an island within an island nation.
This is a garden where magnolias bloom.
This is an old and new world.
Year.

それでも孤独を借りてしまう
