Tears For You / Nada SouSou by Hayley Westenra
Next up in my Nada SouSou themed posts is the English version sung by Hayley Westenra called "Tears For You".
As I've said before, I first became aware of this version while shopping in the Shibuya Body Shop and heard it on the shop's sound system. I was so hyped to hear and English version but was in a rush and didn't have time to ask who the singer was. I eventually tracked it down on YouTube while doing a random search.
Apparently the song was released as a bonus track on a cd here in Japan and is not available internationally. If you have a Japanese credit card though, you can buy it on the Japanese iTunes store.
Luckily someone was kind enough to rip the song and play it over a photo of Hayley Westenra.
Here are the English for Nada SouSou / Tears for You:
Turning the pages of old photographs
I whisper thanks to each and every one
Deep in my heart you have come, come to live
Sure as the sun to see me through
Come rain or shine however the day may be
You shelter me with your smile
However far your memories may fade
Traces of you I hope to find
Then you appear and I drown in my own tears
I wish on a star, the first star of the night
You'll find me here every evening of the year
As twilight approaches I look to the sky
Seaching for you with all of my heart
In grief and joy I long for you and your smile
Hoping you feel the way I do
If only you could find me from where you are
I do believe somewhere in time
I do believe I will see you once again
Come rain or shine however the day may be
You shelter me with your smile
But as each memory of you fades away
I'm so alone longing for you
You're on my mind as I drown in my own tears
Missing you so I'm missing you so
You're on my mind as I drown in my own tears

Welcome. My name's Brad and I'm about to start my fifth year in Tokyo, Japan though lately I've found that that defines me as badly as saying I'm from Sydney, Australia.
