(Two different versions of "Melodies of Life" exist: the English version that will appear in the North American and European releases, and "A Bird Flying Towards the Sky", the Japanese version [same music but different lyrics] that appears in the Japanese version. Both are available on the CD single released in Japan.)

"Melodies of Life"

Alone for a while, I've been searching through the dark
For traces of the love you left inside my lonely heart
To heal (?) by picking the pieces that remain
Melodies of life, love's lost refrain

A past they disclose
Now I cannot say just why
We met, we left, we held 'em fast
And then we said goodbye

And who will hear the echoes
Of stories never told?
Let them ring out loud 'til they unfold

In my dearest memories
I see you're reaching out to me
Now you're gone
I still believe that you can call
Out my name

A voice from the past
Joining yours and mine
Adding up the layers of harmony
And so it goes on and on
Melodies of life to the sky beyond the flying birds
Forever and beyond

So far and away, see the bird as it flies by
Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky
I laid my memories and dreams upon those wings
Live them now and see what tomorrow brings

In your dearest memories
Do you remember loving me?
Was it fate
That brought us close and now leaves
Me behind?

A voice from the past
Joining yours and mine
Adding up the layers of harmony
And so it goes on and on
Melodies of life to the sky beyond the flying birds
Forever and beyond

And if you should leave this lonely world behind
Your voice will still remember our melodies
Now I know we'll carry on
Melodies of life can circle 'round and grow deep in our hearts
As long as we remember
