Текст
[Intro] Ooh, the foxfire wakes tonight Under the moon, under the shrine Ooh, through the torii gates I run Chasing the dawn before it’s gone [Verse 1] Deep in the mountain where the red leaves fall A silver fox heard the village call With nine bright tails and a hidden name She walked through sorrow, she walked through flame The children laughed when the lanterns shined But shadows moved at the edge of time So she became what the night would fear A guardian spirit no one could hear [Pre-Chorus] If the world forgets my face I will still protect this place Even if my heart must break I’ll burn brighter for their sake [Chorus] Run, kitsune, through the midnight sky Let your foxfire rise, let it light the night Even tears can turn into wings When the ancient bells begin to sing Run, kitsune, never fade away Carry every dream to the break of day If this world is lost in blue I’ll become the light that leads them through [Verse 2] Once she loved with a human heart A boy who saw through her spirit’s art He tied a bell to the shrine’s old tree And said, “When it rings, remember me” Years passed by like falling snow Humans leave where spirits cannot go But every spring when the night winds cry She hears his voice in the mountain sky [Pre-Chorus] If the stars forget his name I will carve it into flame Even if I’m left behind I’ll protect his world and mine [Chorus] Run, kitsune, through the midnight sky Let your foxfire rise, let it light the night Even tears can turn into wings When the ancient bells begin to sing Run, kitsune, never fade away Carry every dream to the break of day If this world is lost in blue I’ll become the light that leads them through [Bridge] Yo-i, yo-i, the lanterns glow Yo-i, yo-i, where spirits go Between the rain, between the flame She keeps the gate, she hides her name They called her monster They called her prayer But when the darkness Filled the air She stood alone With burning eyes And painted dawn Across the skies [Final Chorus] Run, kitsune, through the endless sky Let your foxfire bloom, let the heavens cry Even fate can fall apart When a wish is burning in the heart Run, kitsune, never fade away Turn the darkest night into a golden day If this world is lost in blue I’ll become the light that leads them through [Outro] Ooh, the foxfire sleeps tonight Under the moon, under the shrine Ooh, when the shrine bell calls my name I’ll rise again inside the flame [Intro] Ooh, under the moon Yo-i, yo-i, the foxfire blooms Ooh, through cedar and stone A thousand years, still walking alone [Verse 1] At the foot of the mountain shrine Where the red gates kiss the rain A silver fox with amber eyes Learned every human name She watched the farmers light their lamps She heard the children pray And when the winter stole the fields She chased the wolves away [Pre-Chorus] But spirits live where hearts forget And blessings turn to dust She hid her face in a woman’s veil And gave the village trust [Chorus] Nine tails under the moonlight Burning blue against the night She dances where the shadows fall To guard the ones who fear her call Foxfire, foxfire, carry her name Through the wind and the rain If love is a spell that fades too soon She’ll wait beneath the moon [Verse 2] A boy once found her by the stream With blood upon her paw He wrapped her wounds in maple leaves And never felt afraid at all She walked beside him year by year In skin as pale as snow But time is cruel to mortal hands And humans have to go [Pre-Chorus] He left a bell beneath the shrine And whispered, “Do not cry” She rang it once for every spring That passed beneath the sky [Chorus] Nine tails under the moonlight Burning blue against the night She dances where the shadows fall To guard the ones who fear her call Foxfire, foxfire, carry her name Through the wind and the rain If love is a spell that fades too soon She’ll wait beneath the moon [Bridge] Yo-i, yo-i, the lanterns sway Yo-i, yo-i, don’t lose your way Behind the gate, beyond the pine She keeps the border between worlds alive They called her demon They called her saint They carved her story In smoke and paint But every harvest Every child’s first song Was guarded by the fox Who had loved too long [Final Chorus] Nine tails under the moonlight Rising bright into the sky She weeps in fire, she smiles in rain And turns her sorrow into flame Foxfire, foxfire, carry her name Through the wind and the rain If love is a spell that fades too soon She’ll wait beneath the moon [Outro] Ooh, under the moon Yo-i, yo-i, the foxfire blooms Ooh, through cedar and stone A thousand years, still guarding alone [Outro]
