I really like the lyrics of this song from Naruto Shippuuden. It’s entitled Closer, by Inoue Joe. It’s the 4th opening song in the Shippuuden series.

Closer

You’ve gotta be extra careful with
The things that are close and dearest to you
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it
Explain to me this happiness
That you just got to experience
Or maybe you’re so blessed that
You can’t even remember it all
That you are standing here with me
That you live and breathe and see and feel
They’re all little miracles and wonder
Just by themselves.
You’ve gotta be extra careful with
The things that are close and dearest to you
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it
And I’ll never take it for granted
Let’s go!
Even though there are those
Who call the act of mercy hypocrisy,
Because there are both
People who believe and people who doubt
Even if, for example,
That is hypocrisy,
If someone is salvageable,
That is always better than anything else.
It’s fine to say “Never give up”
Say “Keep chasing your dreams on
But the more time you spend talking big
The less you get done with life
I’ll let that handful of courage in my heart
Help me survive another day
And I’ll never take it for granted
Let’s go!
You’ve gotta be extra careful with
The things that are close and dearest to you
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it
And I’ll never take it for granted
It’s fine to say “Never give up”
Say “Keep chasing your dreams on
But the more time you spend talking big
The less you get done with life
I’ll let that handful of courage in my heart
Help me survive another day
And I’ll never take it for granted
Let’s go!
