I was looking for the song "I Won't Last A Day Without You" which was performed as a duet by Shiina Ringo and Utada Hikaru, originally sung by The Carpenters. The fan video "I Won't Last A Day Without Michael..." comes up for me, and I can't believe it- out of all the chances for me to get that vid, I'm speechless; that made my day. I advise you however, don't watch it if it will make you sad, (like I.) I will put it up and you watch if you see fit this version. That was really special.

I Won't Last A Day Without You
Day after day I must face a world of strangers
Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong
It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to
Who will always care, you're always there
When there's no getting over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
So many times when the city seems to be without a friendly face
A lonely place
It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you
And you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile
When there's no getting over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
Touch me and I end up singing
Troubles seem to up and disappear
You touch me with the love you're bringing
I can't really lose when you're near
If all my friends have forgotten half their promises
They're not unkind, just hard to find
One look at you and I know that I could learn to live
Without the rest, I found the best
When there's no getting over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
When there's no getting over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you..

Fig Flower
Hello, I want to see you soon
California poppies are in the garden
When they appear at the back of the front yard,
look back that child is still not here yet
Hello, whats new with you?
Summer seems to have come to the garden
When it appears at the back of the front yard,
wait eagerly saying to him, ready or not! [1]
Seek a little
confusion from clouds blocking the sun
Dont go chasing after
a sky that alternates gold and scarlet colors
A flower without fruit is, even in dying, loved forever an innocent crime
Attract people by turning into a flower bud
So,
link up today and tomorrow
Pray without fail
for a wind in which shyness gives in to intoxication
Dont come attached
to a self that alternates mixed cotton yarn
A fruit without flowers is, as it rots, forgotten forever a harsh punishment
Cut it in half and eat it
So
take a look
at both today and tomorrow
A flower without fruit is, even as it dies, given the name of eternity
Who is this child wearing clothes that keep getting bigger?
A strangely sweet, vivid fruit
Ah
Sleep, oh you holder of sorrows.
