Ready Steady Go (English Arrangement)

I know what you're all thinking. "OH LORD NOT ANOTHER ONE!!" But due to the response I got from my last submission (too stuffy, sloppy, etc etc), I decided to take an entirely different approach to this song.

I wrote some english lyrics for L'arc~En~Ciel's "Ready Steady Go," loosely based on the japanese lyrics.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ready Steady can’t hold me back
Ready Steady give me good luck
Ready Steady never look back
Let’s get started, Ready Steady Go!

I was always yearning to fly free, taking in the wonders around me
Nothing can stop me anymore, it’s time to take a step and find my destiny

I don’t need a map to find my way, I’m already halfway out the door
My heart will lead to where you are, and I know I was meant to love you all along

And I will run (straight to you), my soul burning with courage!
It doesn’t matter how far I must go if it means I will hold you again
Can you hear me (calling you), across the endless distance? I don’t have time to stand around, I’ve got a date with destiny, so-
Ready, Steady Go!

I was once a lost and broken soul, taking chances had taken it’s toll
But then you dried away my tears, you held me tight and made me feel like I was whole

You, my love, were always by my side, mended my heart and my broken pride,
With you my life means so much more, I long to hear your voice and let our worlds collide!

And I will run (straight to you), my soul burning with courage!
It doesn’t matter how far I must go if it means I will hold you again
Can you hear me (calling you), across the endless distance?
I don’t have time to stand around, I’ve got a date with destiny, so-
Ready, Steady Go!

Ready Steady can’t hold me back
Ready Steady give me good luck
Ready Steady never look back
Let’s get started, Ready Steady Go!

And I will run (straight to you) (straight to you), my soul burning with courage!
It doesn’t matter how far I must go if it means I will hold you again
Can you hear me (calling you), across the endless distance?
I don’t have time to stand around, I’ve got a date with destiny, so-
Ready, Steady Go!

I’m on my way (hastily) (wait for me!), the sun is shining brightly
Over that big blue sky that hasn’t changed at all since the first day we met!
Can you hear me? (I love you!) I’ll see you in a while
My heart is keeping time until the day I finally see your smile again-
Ready, Steady Go!

Please, trust me
