Wareware wa hitotsu desu

我々は一つです。（われわれはひとつです）Wareware wa hitotsu desu. trans. We are One.

I was browsing through my grade school yearbook earlier when I stumbled towards the last page where the graduation song, although with quite a few typographical errors, was printed.

We are One by Allan Pote.

It brought a smile to my face when I read the lyrics. Some of it made me tear up. ^u^

And because I have known you

My life will never be quite the same

May your spirit live through me.

The time we spent together

All the happiness and tears

All those many special moments

We'll keep mem'ries through the years.

*happy sigh* That was a nice stroll down memory lane. ~u~

Full lyrics here:

This song is hard to sing

because goodbye's are hard to say

But I know it's only for a time

We will meet again someday

The songs we left unsung

Will keep ringing in my heart

'Til the melodies keep echoing

And help me do my part

To let the light of our love shine

For all the world to see

May your joy and laughter

Become a part of me

And because I have known you

My life will never be quite the same

May your spirit live through me

The time we spent together

All the memories and tears

All those many special moments

We'll keep mem'ries through the years

And when it's time to meet again

I know you by your name

For a friendship lasts forever

And forever stays the same

Chorus:

We are one, we are one

In the name of the Lord

We are one in the spirit

We are on in our love

And because I have known you

My life will never be quite the same

May your spirit live through me

Live through me
