Loosely based on the song Ai Nante by Tegoshi Yuya, Kato Shigeaki, and Nishikido Ryo of NewS
Selfish Love
We were so close, we shared the most
Of this pitiful existence, and it hurts so much
You said to let go, you couldn’t do it no more
And it became too much to bear…
I’ve walked a hundred thousand miles
To be where you were tonight
What did I see but thousand watt smiles
Meant for someon else tonight
Selfish love; it ran through our hearts
Forever changing us
Selfish love; it hurt us from the start
And we grew apart forever
Wouldn’t it be nice to see
Forever with a few more days to spare
Wouldn’t it be nice to stay
In this single moment for eternity?
Selfish love; you and me forever
Whenever we fought we cried
Selfish love; you and me together
A combination meant to fall apart
Truly, you must be as torn apart as me
As ripped at the seams as me
But I must know the truth
How are you holding up?
I’ve walked a hundred thousand miles
To be where you were tonight
What did I see but thousand watt smiles
Meant for someon else tonight
It’s cruel hell for me
All I remember is seeing your smiling face in the sun
It’s harsh jail for me
All I remember is this feeling that you were the one…
Selfish love; a dedicated song
But it really wasn’t for me
Selfish love; together for so long
But you were counting down the days until you were free
Wouldn’t it be nice
If that single moment of happy
Stood completely still
And turned into Eternity?
But a love like this
Is doomed from the start
And it hurts to reminisce
All I remember now is a broken heart…
