This Is All I Have For You
[v.1]
It’s not like there’s anything that’s coming,
That you know of yet.
[v.2]
No more than a secret you’ve never heard of,
Skippin’ in my heartbeat~
[hook]
Your smile in neon lights,
A sound strikes in the air tonight…
A howling echo, calling you~
[v.3]
Maybe, my trickery has finally beat me,
At my own game.
[pre-ch.]
Maybe I’m a player out to get you.
What if you’re caught in my ruse?
[chorus]
Sunglasses in midnight subway trains.
They’re almost hollow,
Shadow eyes of greed.
Don’t inch too close to me.
Don’t swim too deep until you
Find nothing more,
Nothing else,
Just my shadow, calling you…
[reprise]
This is all I have for you,
This is all I need from you…
[v.4]
Maybe I’ve stolen just a little,
More than you’d like.
[v.5]
No more than a glance that I keep of you,
A locket in my heart’s pocket
[hook]
The dark side of the moon,
Sparkles a different kind of light…
Two eyes they search, for you too
[v.7]
Maybe, there’s a bit more lying,
More than I admit.
[pre-ch.]
Each night, in your halo lying
Is when I’ll know, what to do.
[chorus]
Searching the freeways for something
Just to keep you,
Smiling in my dreams.
Away from my eclipse.
It won’t be too long, only you
You are the one,
Deep in me,
Psyche’s smile in neon lights.
[reprise]
This is all I have for you,
This is all I need from you…
[coda]
No, it won’t be too long,
Sweetheart,
Just wait.
Once I can breathe again…
I’ll be there for you~
[outro]
This is all I have for you…
This is all I have for you…
This is all I have for you...

I wrote these English lyrics a long time ago, and the original song is sung by the coolest voice from 80s J-pop, Makoto Matsushita.
Here is the original remastered audio of this fantastic song:
