1st Ending for Nagi no Asukara

The ocean fills my lonely heart,
my tears and scales of fish float by
Soon their detritus spins a small cocoon,
and you're enveloped in the threads,
safe and warm inside...
*
Can you recall the last time we opened up our eyes
to the glowing world above?
We waited for years, our tears reflected in the stars,
just the two of us
In this aquarium, everything is safe,
but they don't that our home's a gilded cage...
The ocean fills my lonely heart,
I see the scales of fish float by
Soon their detritus spins a small cocoon,
and you're enveloped in the threads
Although you're trapped,
know I'll watch from afar,
protect you from all harm
Until your dreams and wishes can come true,
you know I'll always wait for you...
*
Adrift within paradise, a deafening silence falls,
through which I can't hear your calls
I wish that what happened did not turn out this way,
but now it's too late
When my eyes rest on you, everything is clear
Transfixed by you, now all else just disappears...
Why can't I reach your lonely heart?
It feels so close yet far away
The bridge of sand is slow to fade but still exists
within the lull of the waves
When you're asleep you seem the most at peace,
and I am put at ease
The moonlight shines from high up in the sky,
and it reflects inside my eyes
*
One day you'll begin to wake,
your cocoon will start to break
And you'll wonder if the life you're living's real or fake
But I promise the lullaby I'm sending you comes straight from my heart,
My wish that we will never part...
The ocean fills my lonely heart,
my tears and scales of fish float by
Soon their detritus spins a small cocoon,
and you're enveloped in the threads
Even if you're trapped, I'll watch from afar,
and protect you from all harm
Until your dreams and wishes can come true,
just know I'll always wait for you...
