Our passion, devotion our deepest emotions our souls laid bare when we sing! Cut in! English (Full version)= Awaken Returner! Let your heart feel desire! A longing for miracles that can inspire

Awaken Returner! Let your heart feel desire! Excitement that makes you want more out of life life life life

Once upon a time my dreams were bright and colorful But then reality said it and everything was dull Now those dreams are coming back I feel them in my belly(?) Desire(?) in my eyes and then

I wake up in the light!

Gotta get it right if we're gonna survive Never gonna stop whether dead or alive Living life the best we can Going down our destined path

Ah how do I go on how do I try? Don't give up all you need is right beside you You'll see if you just look around and round and round

That's right we're with you!

Aim higher Reach for it We'll stop when we break it To all the fears you have say bye bye bye

You've got this You've got this It's your turn To know this

Cut in!

Ah how can I go on I'm so afraid Don't give up, your anxiety's a liar No time to stop you gotta fight fight fight fight

Awaken Returner! Let your heart feel courage! And show the world how we can Go go go go high high high high

Awaken Returner! Let your heart feel desire! A longing for miracles that can inspire

Awaken Returner! Let your heart feel desire! Excitement, take joy wherever you can Give it to me!

Reach for it, and grab it don’t back down, you got it To all the doubt you have say “Bye, bye, bye!”

Our passion, devotion our deepest emotions our souls laid bare when we sing! Cut in!
