Dear Karen (English Version) Lyrics

Many things that surround us may go and disappear
But everywhere there is music; I know that you hear
Oh, I breathe in your gift of love and rejoice
Everywhere I feel your love; how I long for you voice.

I was just a shy kid in the gym
That I ain't had no place in the world
Till' you opened me up

All the love that you give is more than a melody
It's all that I hear beneath every line
All the love that you give I live in your legacy
It's all that I am, you have lead me to this time,
Telling me how to live a life.

Shallow, fickle, hearted people, they come and go
While you stay right beside me, this I know
Oh, I breathe in your gift of love and rejoice
Every time I feel your love, I'm saved by your voice

I was just a shy kid in the gym
That I ain't had no place in the world
Till' you opened me up

All the love that you give is more than a melody
It's all that I hear beneath every line
All the love that you give I live in your legacy
It's all that I am, and this man that I love
Safe and sound next to me


And this song that I'm singing would play its part
As long as the string of love won't fall apart
When my body surrenders to time naturally
While this song could exists here eternally
Eternally...
Ahh~

Rie fu (舩越 里恵/Rie Funakoshi; born January 11, 1985) is a Japanese singer-songwriter born in Tokyo, Japan. She is a graduate of the University of the Arts, London.

From the age of 7 to 10, Rie fu lived in Maryland, United States. She was greatly influenced by The Carpenters and female singers/songwriters such as Sheryl Crow and Michelle Branch. Rie fu started writing songs in high school with her piano and guitar. Within a year, her talents were recognized by Sony, who released her first single in March 2004.

Rie fu's songs are often bilingual. Although most of her songs are primarily sung in Japanese, many feature entire verses written in English. Her debut album features two entirely English songs, "Voice" and "Shine," both of which she wrote herself. Of her songs written entirely in Japanese, at least two have later been released with English language versions.

Rie completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, London, in 2007. She has returned to Japan to further pursue her musical career.
