about

I wrote this song as a duet for Gumi and IA when I first heard that IA English was going to be released.
The theme of the song is around a couple who find it difficult to talk to one another due to a language barrier but they manage to make the relationship work through their love for each other.

lyrics

Gumi:
In chance circumstances
We exchanged passing glances
Just two lonely faces
Drifting through crowded places

In my self-reflection
I felt a strange connection
That draws me
Could we be
Two souls that were fated to meet

Chorus:
I stood there at the border
Lost in uncharted waters
When our two worlds collided
And left my heart divided
Without words
The meaning
Made me want to believe in
'Barriers are meant to break'

IA:
In my naivety
I maintained my brevity
Afraid to even dream
Of what your soft smile could mean

But in self-reflection
I still felt a connection
It draws me
Could it be
That we were always meant to be

Chorus:
I stood there at the border
Lost in uncharted waters
When our two worlds collided
And left my heart divided
With one look
The meaning
Made me want to believe in
'Barriers are meant to break'

Coda:
Gumi: In this time
In this place
Together we'll never lose face
IA: As I am
As we are
Both: Side by side we'll both go far

Chorus:
We stood there at the border
Crossing uncharted waters
When our two worlds collided
Gumi: It was then I decided
IA: In your eyes
Gumi: The meaning
Both: Made it all worth believing
The barrier would finally break

IA: This barrier will finally break...
