when I saw the lyrics of this song… it’s like they combine some lines of the songs in the album to create this first track. Amazing!!!!!
I know right, here’s what i thought…
1st – hikari furu, 2nd – to the beginning,3rd – Door, 4th – hanataba, 5th – moonfesta
6th – manten , 7th – signal, 8th – Obbligato, 9th – kiichigo no shigemini, 10th – ???
11&12th – Mirai , 13&14th – Yume no Daichi, 15&16th – Consolation
OMG, realizing it makes me love this song 10 times more… <3
@ encryptoferia : I think you mean both 9th and 10th line is from kiichigo no shingemi ni
i think 6th is Seventh Heaven and 7th is Kagayaku Sora no Shijima ni wa
yuki kajiura is the best, made this prolouge of the album so beautiful
