Wahhhh!

Who else is a total sucker for sad anime/manga/songs? I was listening to Japan-A-Radio and "Another Grey Day in the Big Blue World" by Sakamoto Maaya came on. I liked to sound of it so I headed to Anime Lyrics and read the lyrics and...WAHHHHHHH!

And now she wakes to another grey day
In the Big Blue World
And her room's a tiny cage for a golden bird
O where did love go?

And now the baby, that looks like him,
Starts to cry again
And again, again, eternally over again
Do rivers ever end?

Count a thousand drops of rain
Washed down the drain
Is life the same, in a way?

Catch the bus that never comes
Clouds block the sun
Is life the same, in a way?

What will tomorrow bring?
Will birds sing?

And now the flowers in the window box
Seem to bow their heads
As she sits and stares with eyes, sad circles of red
where did love go?

Never a letter or a call
A knock upon the door
So much like life, in a way

Watch the hands move round the clock
Tie time in knots
Life does the same, in a way

What will tomorrow bring?
Will birds sing?

Let the birds sing!

And now she sleeps in an empty bed
Through a starless night
But she dreams of snow-white doves
Bringing branches of love
maybe that's enough

Count a thousand drops of rain
Washed down the drain
Is life the same, in a way?

Catch the bus that never comes
Clouds block the sun
Is life the same, in a way?

Never a letter or a call
A knock upon the door
So much like life, in a way

Watch the hands move round the clock
Tie time in knots
Life does the same, in a way

What will tomorrow bring?
Will birds sing?

Sniff...ocassionly Parfait Tic! or other shojo manga will make me cry (Mars, CCS), when I first heard Piccolo went to Hell at the end of DBGT, heck, when Haruko returns in the last episode of FLCL and Naota hugs her made me cry!

Yubiwa from Escaflowne: The Movie gets me everytime. Maaya's voice is sooooooo pretty.

As my tears keep overflowing
I can't see your last smile through the blur
Don't go! Don't go! Stay with me
Light breaks through the sky

I'm so insignificant but
I loved you with all my soul, more than anyone
Thank you for all of the
Precious feelings
That you gave to me

At that time I just
Watched for ages as the vapor trail vanished

Don't forget
You're not alone
Even if we part, our hands are still linked
It was my first love, when I first
Learned of sadness like this

Even if something fades away, something
Will live again
The smile you gave as we parted was
Your message for me to triumph

Someday surely we'll meet again
And be together
No matter how far, we'll stare into each other's eyes
Bet all our hopes and dreams
Let's promise each other
That we'll hold onto the intensity
Of that day
And live in the future that blooms in tomorrow

So sad, ahhhh........
