Deep Love
行きたい場所に 行けなくなったら
何故いけないのか 心に訊いてみよう
欲しいものが 手に入らないなら
じっと座って 理由を探して
人を責めても 答えはでない
宝物はすでに 今ここにあるのに
あなたの深い愛に気づいたとき
肩の力が抜けて安心できたよ
あなたのやさしさに包まれたとき
ただただ「ありがとう」と素直に言えたよ
やりたいことが できなくなったら
本当にやりたいのか 心に訊いてみよう
会いたい人に 会えなかったら
心の中で ひとつでいよう
自分を責めても 道は見えない
目の前で天使が 手を差し伸べていた
あなたの深い愛に 気づいたとき
肩の力が抜けて安心できたよ
あなたのやさしさに包まれたとき
ただただ「ありがとう」と素直に言えたよ

Deep Love
Akiko Nakashima
The song "Deep Love" was born during a trip to Sedona
Released as a single for streaming!!
When you can't go where you want to go
When you can't do what you want to do
I was given the opportunity to face myself
I arrived at a church in the red rocks called The Chapel of the Holy Cross.
When I entered The Chapel of the Holy Cross.
I was surrounded by great love.
I just wanted to say thank you
I was moved to tears.
This song was born while remembering the time when I was moved to tears.
The Treasure is here now.
The experience of this trip was like a microcosm of my life
I learned a great things from this trip.
