I’ve got a calling
Riding to the danger zone
I’m a rock and roll and
Heading to the airfield alone
Take me flying higher
Like heaven like nobody done before
Get away from a fire
Like hell like crying in the war
Yeah yeah yeah uh uh
Yeah yeah
Yeah let me get close to the
Sweet sun that I love
Through the window it makes me feel like I’m alive
Sweet sun that I love
Out of the window yeah
Dream of the beautiful world
Yes I’m falling
Down and down to like an ice cold ocean
Nobody wants to stay in
Feel like a breath in slow motion
Keep me flying higher
Like heaven like nobody done before
Get away from a fire
Like hell like crying in the war
Yeah yeah yeah uh uh
Yeah yeah
Yeah let me get close to the
Sweet sun that I love
Through the window it makes me feel like I’m alive
Sweet sun that I love
Out of the window yeah
Dream of the beautiful world yeah
Feel the air I’m flying
Never stop I see the end
Break the wall of sorrow
Don’t live in a small world
That you can break in
Never feel the same as before
Feel this sun now feel my heart now
Feel the sweet sweet sun that I la la la...love
Yeah la la la...love
Yeah yeah
Yeah let me get close to the
Sweet sun that I love
Through the window it makes me feel like I’m alive
Sweet sun that I love
Out of the window yeah
Dream of the beautiful world yeah

Gaku Ito's Comment:
"In this world, where wars never seem to end and incidents keep occurring, there is an overflow of sorrow across the Earth. I personally have experience working on a U.S. military base, and I have friends who have actually gone to, or lived in, war zones.
Over the 30 years of my life, I've experienced many things - sadness, hardship, joy, loving others, and being loved. I want to keep learning and continue to grow. In my current work, I often fly on airplanes. When I break through the clouds, I'm able to see the magnificent sun that I love, and I feel such comfort in being close to its greatness. Even though sorrow and harsh realities exist down on the ground, I filled this song with my hope and determination to keep moving forward.
For everyone listening to this song, I know that each day can be full of challenges. But I hope you can take a moment, look up at the sky, and feel the warmth of the sun."
