With gratitude and respect to Kohei Uchimura, who is retiring.

This song was inspired by Kohei Uchimura who is a gymnastics athlete at Tokyo 2020 Olympic.
But maybe you can sing this for your hero, for your friends, for your lovers, for your parents….
Whatever it is, this is a song of gratitude and respect for the person you admire.

[Lyrics]

Cause I Saw You Were There

Do you know why I could come here?
Do you know what made me to come here?
It’s you. 
Cause I saw you were there. 
You were there.
Yes, it’s you. 
Cause I saw you were there. 
You were there.

引退される内村航平選手へ、感謝と敬意をこめて。

体操の内村航平選手の東京オリンピックを見て、この曲が生まれました。
でもたぶんこの曲は、あなたのヒーローのため、あなたの友人のため、あなたの恋人のため、あなたの両親のための曲でもあります…。
それが何であれ、あなたの憧れの人への感謝と敬意を歌ったものです。

[歌詞]

僕がなぜここに来ることが出来たのか知っていますか？
何が僕をここに連れて来たのか知っていますか？
あなたです。 
あなたがそこにいたのを見たからです。 
あなたはそこにいた。
そう、それはあなたです。 
あなたがそこにいたのを見たからです。 
あなたはそこにいました。

Cause I Saw You Were There

the crowd is ecstatic
the hands are lifted
a crowd of tools

a new messias
shines on us                                 
and explains the rules

it's getting better
we climb all ladders
who gets fooled again?

call it religion
fanatic missions
fill your boots

stroke the fears and
preach salvation
let the demons loose

but does it matter?
we're deeply shatterd
who gets fooled again?

we travel in those trial balloons
soapbubble dreams that ends too soon
when the last of us
reaches the gates of the moon

Soap Bubble Dreams
