Ballad of Akira

Verse 1 Akira, it’s been so long, Since I sailed away, since I left you strong. I wonder now, beneath the moonlit sky, Do you ever think of me, or wonder why? The wind it whispers, but it tells me lies, About the life you lead beyond my eyes. Are you happy there, where the spires grow? I wonder, Akira, what I’ll never know.
Chorus Oh, Akira, do you still dream? Of the life we shared, or what could’ve been? I wonder who you’ve become today, In the years since I’ve gone away. Are you the same, or have you grown? In a world we should have known? Akira, I still wonder how you are.
Verse 2 Did you find someone to hold you tight, To chase away your lonely nights? Or are you still as wild and free, As the woman I loved, the one I couldn’t be? I think of the smile you used to wear, And the way your laughter filled the air. Would it have worked, if I’d stayed behind? Or was our love just lost to time?
Chorus Oh, Akira, do you still dream? Of the life we shared, or what could’ve been? I wonder who you’ve become today, In the years since I’ve gone away. Are you the same, or have you grown? In a world we should have known? Akira, I still wonder how you are.
Bridge The stars above, they haven’t changed, But we were young, and life’s rearranged. I wonder now, if we’d stayed true, Would I be there now, beside you? Or were we meant to drift apart, With time and distance in our hearts?
Verse 3 So tell me, love, wherever you are, Do you look up and see the same bright star? Do you ever wonder about me too, About the man you once thought you knew? I hope you’re happy, wherever you roam, But part of me still calls you home.
Chorus Oh, Akira, do you still dream? Of the life we shared, or what could’ve been? I wonder who you’ve become today, In the years since I’ve gone away. Are you the same, or have you grown? In a world we should have known? Akira, I still wonder how you are.
Outro Akira, I still wonder how you are… In the quiet moments, beneath the stars. If our love could have lasted through, I wonder, Akira, if I still know you.
