What a beautiful collaboration. At first listen, it sounds like a kind of nostalgic, dreamy pop song. Sweet, lovely. But the lyrics make you realize what a melancholic song this really is — she's reflecting on her friends that have passed and the deep sadness that never goes away, but she'll keep the beautiful memories of them until they can meet once again.
Finally happy now, yeah?
Well, I'm exactly the same
I think I've lost everything
Everything comes as it pleases and leaves without a goodbye
Like this, I don't want to love anything
Where the sun has set, as far as the sun sets
I travel in those memories
Under an orange sun
We dance with no shadows
There is no such thing as decided farewells
Meet me in that memory that was once beautiful
Forever young
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Forever we young
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
If it is this kind of nightmare, I won't ever wake up
Island, yeah, here is an island
A small one that we made with each other
Yeah, um, forever young, the word "forever" is a sandcastle
A farewell is like a disaster cast
A morning greeted along with yearning
Let us both pass this eternity
Surely meet once more on this island
Like what someone said as they were consoling me, passing
It isn't that easy to forget a memory merely big as a handspan
Even as time goes by, still
At that place which takes hold of me
Under an orange sun
We dance with no shadows
There is no such thing as decided farewells
Meet me in that memory that was once beautiful
Forever young
We lie down atop of each other
Share stories that aren't of sorrow
There is no such thing as gloomy endings
I will forever meet you in this memory
Forever young
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Forever we young
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
If it is this kind of nightmare, I won't ever wake up
