Lyrics:
How I wish this tired tragedy was just a fading dream
Even now wrapped in the darkness you’re the light calling to me
Dusting off the happy memories a feeling comes to mind
Like returning to a better time when I had called you mine
It was you who taught me many things and helped me on my way
There’re joys here in this wide world that could never be replaced
All the pain that I had hid away and buried out of sight
It was only by your gentle touch they ever came to light
Never more could I feel pain
Any more than I did that day
Round and round I’m just stuck in place I can’t get away
Even all the tears that we were shedding
Even all the pain I try forgetting
I could bear it all if I was with you it won’t matter where we are
Even now I still can smell that bitter sweetened scent of lemon on my heart
Couldn’t take a single step until the clouds and rain had part
To this day I’ve never changed you are my only shining star
In the dark I closed my eyes and drew the “you” I used to know
I recall every emotion even here all on my own
But there’s still a looming agony at times I just can’t fight
I’m alone painting a ghost that leaves me crying through the night
Tell me what did you do today?
What was making you look that way?
Never once had I seen your face so covered in pain
If beyond the raining you are waiting
Reaching for a light that’s gone and fading
If the lonely tears are only burning and are smothering your heart
Won’t you just forget the fool that’s searching so he could hold you in his arms
And I pray that you could keep on walking no matter where you are
To this day I’ve never changed you are my only shining star
More than I had ever knew
I was so in love with you
Since that time I can’t undo
Taking breath just hurts me too
Even now I sometimes think it’s strange
Just how long we spent that way
But I swear I won’t forget those days
In my heart they’ll always remain
Even all the tears that we were shedding
Even all the pain I try forgetting
I could bear it all if I was with you it won’t matter where we are
Even now I still can smell that bitter sweetened scent of lemon on my heart
Couldn’t take a single step until the clouds and rain had part
Like a single sour fruit we shared together in the dark
To this day my love remains you are my only shining star

If Kenshi Yonezu sees this ILY
1/10 not a single "WEK"
When life gives you lemons, you sing about the memories that came with it
Do you mind if I make a nightcore of this?(>▽
This cover is SO underrated, I mean this is probably the best 'Lemon' cover i've heard so far!!
The vocal, the guitar, but really the thing that get me the most is those LYRICS!
even though it's not 100% similar to the original it's still has the feels of the original!
BRAVO Will!!
This cover deserve more views and likes!
I think you right about it. This cover was so good
Yes, I think this perfectly exemplifies how you can stray a little further from the direct translation, but capture the exact emotions the original lyrics have
**JubyPhonic has joined the chat**
The lyrics are like 99% similar to the original. They are really damn good if you understand both English and Japanese.
When life gives you lemons...
*farm them*
make a music video
don't make lemonade.
.
.
.
MAKE LIFE TAKE THE LEMONS BACK! GET MAD! I DON'T WANT YOUR DAMN LEMONS, WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE? DEMAND TO SEE LIFE'S MANAGER! MAKE LIFE RUE THE DAY IT THOUGHT IT COULD GIVE CAVE JOHNSON LEMONS! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I'M THE MAN WHO'S GONNA BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN! WITH THE LEMONS! I'M GONNA GET MY ENGINEERS TO INVENT A COMBUSTIBLE LEMON THAT BURNS YOUR HOUSE DOWN!
Just make a lemonade and drink it while hearing this
... Then you probably found a will
I’m from japan. This one is the best English cover I ever heard!!!,
Hello from South Korea i love Japanese it’s beautiful ✨❤️✨
Oya?
*_AMAZING!_*
Hello from the United Kingdom, I love the japanese version and this version!
Greetings from the Philippines! I love this cover and the Japanese version!
*Ikr!!*
This has been the best lemon english cover I had listened to, since the lyrics hits me more, it just felt so good. Who knew I would come for the memes and stay for the feels... Keep it up :p
:^)
@@willstetson I ended up here for your "Teo" cover, the music box one XD, and thanks to that I discovered a song that I enjoy a lot along with Snow Drive, and now I'm seeing you have a lot of covers of songs that I like, and I love you're singing and how fitting your lyrics are, thanks for these awesome covers
He took some creative liberties to make the english natural, and decided on a meaning of the song....rather than being obscire. Yes the song could have been about a lost love or a dead love in japanese, but english dosn't fluidly support both, we have way less homophones in our language. wish more covers would do this.
will snapped on this one
That string-type instrument being plucked a few times during the most emotionally intense parts really is what pulls this song together. Really, masterpiece-tier song right here.
I think it's a small harp
To this day, I still think that this one video encompasses all the talent you have, all the work you put into your covers, and how well it pays off in the end. In my opinion, this is the best video on your channel, and the fact that you dont get enough recognition for these beautiful renditions should be a crime, lol.
From Japan 🇯🇵
Amazing！！！！！！！！！
While keeping original meaning of the words, and rhyming the lines. Wow.Lyrics could never be better.
Sorry for my poor English.
All I want to say is “I LOVE IT”.
You are pretty cool.
You look a bit different than I imagined. But hey man no homo but your a good lookin dude. Nonetheless incredible cover as always, good luck and have fun on your future stuff dude!

fellas, is it gay to compliment guys
@@palea1335 let me ask you this; Is it not-gay to compliment guys?
@@danielakbari3447 on one hand, i feel like saying fair enough.
on the other, i feel like disagreeing and going into a 4 paragraph essay on why you're wrong.
therefore, disagree enough. I shall not decide, it is simultaneously gay yet not gay to compliment a guy.
I know this was a year ago but this still needs attention, this is just perfection in so many ways-
His voice so clean
This is amazing! I love the lyrics and the MV so much as well as your voice! GREAT JOB!!!
Yoo this is sick
lemons be like: 🍋🍋🍋
they yabba dabba do be like that
finally an above average english cover
imma be honest this song unlocked a new emotion for me
This is hands down... the best cover I have ever heard of this song. Heck, one of my top covers of ALL TIME. This is so beautiful??? Your voice is amazing???
The freaking music, video, and YOU are just perfect. Like,,, this deserves 1 Mil views. I am not joking. Please, someone give Will more love and attention like he deserves. :(((
When I first listened to this and listened to the lyrics I broke down and collapsed, since the story is scarily similar to what's been happening for the past 13 weeks for me. But now I listen to it and feel slightly motivated. I will reunite with my loved one soon...
For you two, I hope you sincerely do.
Dude, I love this! Was great seeing you on camera
Your cover makes me really *feel* the song. I dunno if that really makes sense. I really like this, thank you. :)
This is the best English cover of Lemon I heard! I can really hear the emotion you put into your singing and lyrics! :)
I really love the message of this song since it really is a sad and emotional song but your arrangement of the lyrics made me feel the song more
OH MY GOD this is the best English cover of a Japanese song I've ever read and heard. Thank you.
this is my best cover.
When life gives you lemons, cry
Be grateful because life gave you something
The duality of man
when life gives you lemons, pinch them on your eyes and cry
you perfectly understood the meaning of the song and remade it.
FINALLY! I watched this live, nice job will!
Uwa, this was brilliant! The lyrics were translated beautifully, and I love your voice.
Super awesome!
if kenshi yonezu sees this ily
will probably forgot this so yeah

@@crossymmd5146 Thank you- :)
remember
The best lemon English cover I heard till now , magnificent 👏
Will’s voice is so perfect. I can’t- 👌😫
すごい！！！とっても素敵です！！！素晴らしい！！！ありがとうございました！！
when life gives you a beautiful voice
I love how it was filmed, this vibe is my cup of tea. You're really something man.
すき
めちゃ聴き入った
I'm Japanese.I like this song!But this is the first time I've listen to 'Lemon'an English.
Guitar sounds..
Sound effects..
Voice..
But what matters the most is...
*How you express your lyrics.*
Your Kenshi Yonezu covers are always blessing my ears... Like, I discovered your work through Eine Kleine (which made me suscribe to your channel). I'm listening to your version of Lemon for the first time just right now... and I'm in love. Thank you so much for these beautiful cover and translyrics
🍋 This lyric is the best feeling comfortable for my Japasese ears 😌👂
if will see this ily
panda eyes
I like the way you translated the lyrics. It isn’t a direct translation but because of that the words can be twisted to have so much more impact. Lovely cover and guitar work, is this on Spotify or ITunes?
Suddenly got this recommended, love every seconds of it
When life gives you lemons, dont make lemonades, make a song instead!
Love your cover dude! Love ur english version!!
This is a song I keep coming back to only more and more often after losing my husband a few years ago. I'm happy now, and have new people in my life, but no one can ever fit the exact groove in your soul that a person is. It will always be there, and it's good that it is, I think.
😢
@@user-bd6ny6sf1z I can make it worse. Our honeymoon meal had a lemon cake dessert and we ate the same slice during a power outage. So that last line near the end is laserfocused at me personally lol.
I need a 1 hour version of this
The cover you did on this song is just... Amazing! You captured the emotion on the voice and the purity it has is just astonishing.
This song is so bittersweet, thank you for this cover buddy. It’s amazing.
I love this so much. Ive only found this song and cover today, but its absolutly amazing. And honestly at first it just reminded me of tangled. It gives me motivation to live, it sounds stupid, but it really does. I'm not exactly doing that well and this just makes me want to actually take care of myself. Idk why it just does.
This is genuinely one of the most amazing covers I have ever heard!!! You did a fantastic job translating the true feelings of the song over to its English version and your voice is so smooth and emotionally poignant!!! Fantastic job!!! I'm definitely going to subscribe
When life gives you lemon, make a masterpiece.
Dayumm, this is impressive. I love the lyrics!
THIS IS SO GOOD WILL YOU REALLY OUTDONE YOURSELF
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE?? LEMON COVER OUT THERE.
if will sees this ily
can you hear that? its the sound of this perfect cover playing beauifully as the world falls apart.
(also, i’m crying. thank you. so much.)
How do I just now find this. You’re voice is amazing! I love this song as well!
My first and favourite Will Stetson cover
OmG coolVoiceAndNice
Lmao first time seeing Will's face. What a great cover
i just found out abt this cover today, and all i can say is WHAT A MASTERPIECE, i actually didnt think that "lemon" could get even better. thank u for this😭💖💖
Been a fan ever since the good ol zenzenzence says and this is by far my fav cover you've ever done. I listen to it every morning in my campuses lounge and get people sitting close by and listening. Even had a few asked for your name. Hope to be listening for years to come!
damnnn the tone of the real song to this english cover still remain intact with the rhymes and its meaning
when will this banger be available on spotify? i'm waiting for this since 2020 when I discovered this GOAT cover
Ah! First time hearing one of your covers, this is amazing! It literally feels like Lemon but in English (and I’ve never liked english covers of japanese songs). I don’t usually comment either, this was just so good!!
Thank you so much for this!
I loved every second of it. This is the best english cover of Lemon I've heard.
The lyrics, the voice, the video, how the syllables match with every note and fit- it's perfect.
Why does this only have 600k views?! It should have at LEAST a million!
Bravo!
You are so good 😭 thank you so much for this cover ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🫶🏼✨ may God bless you!
I will never get over the beauty of this cover
David Toth directed and made the lyrics? eyy, that was awesome! and the vocals were so perfect
absolutely breathtaking, i don't think there's a cover i don't like from your channel ❤️❤️
keep up the amazing work!
The best english cover of lemon ❤👌
The lyrics, it makes me cry
One of my favourite song, now I can understand the lyrics
This song made me think of someone I refused to think of, then forced me to get over it- lmaooo
I can't believe I've only discovered this now 😭♥️ This is so beautiful thank you!
The lyrics, videography and your VOICE. wow!
I don't understand why this video hasn't reached 1 million views yet.
This MV reproduces the atmosphere of the original one, so I was moved.
one of the best covers, keep it up mate.
yeah , 君和すごいです おめでと!!
夢ならばどれほどよかったでしょう
If only this were just a dream
未だにあなたのことを夢に見る
Dream about you I still have
忘れた物を取りに帰るように
古びた思い出の埃を払う
Brushing off dust of my old memories
just like coming back to pick up something left behind
戻らない幸せがあることを
最後にあなたは教えてくれた
You taught me at last there is such happiness
as couldn't be restored
言えずに隠してた昏い過去も
あなたがいなきゃ永遠に昏いまま
Without you, my murky past I have kept from you
will forever be kept in the dark
もうこれ以上 傷つくことなど
ありはしないとわかっている
I know I won't get hurt any more
あの日の悲しみさえ あの日の苦しみさえ
その全てを愛してた あなたとともに
Together with you, I used to love anything and everything
Even grief and pain in bygone days
胸に残り離れない 苦いレモンの匂い
Smell of a bitter lemon won't go away from my heart
雨が止むまでは 帰れない
I cannot go home until the rain stops
今でもあなたは わたしの光
Even now, you are still being my light
暗闇であなたの背をなぞった
その輪郭を鮮明に覚えている
I still clearly remember the contour of your back
I traced in the darkness
受け止めきれないものと出会うたび
溢れてやまないのは涙だけ
I just cannot help but shed tears
whenever I face something I cannot accept
何をしていたの 何を見ていたの
わたしの知らない横顔で
What were you doing
What were you seeing
At the other side of your face I have not seen before
どこかであなたが今 わたしと同じ様な
涙に暮れ 淋しさの中にいるなら
わたしのことなどどうか 忘れてください
Should you still be in tears and loneliness just like I am,
I do implore you to wash my memory away
そんなことを心から願うほどに
今でもあなたはわたしの光
As much as I wish you to forget me
Even now, you are still being my light
自分が思うより
恋をしていたあなたに
It seems I loved you more than I had thought
あれから思うように
息ができない
I haven't been able to breathe well since then
あんなに側にいたのに
まるで嘘みたい
It is hard to believe that we have been so close
とても忘れられない
それだけが確か
One clear fact is that I won't be able to forget you
あの日の悲しみさえ あの日の苦しみさえ
その全てを愛してた あなたとともに
Together with you, I used to love anything and everything
even grief and pain in bygone days
胸に残り離れない 苦いレモンの匂い
Smell of a bitter lemon won't go away from my heart
雨が止むまでは 帰れない
I cannot go home until the rain stops
切り分けた果実の片方の様に
今でもあなたはわたしの光
Even now, you are still being my light
Just like the other half of the cut fruit
You really did the song justice with this cover!
Your voice and the lyrics are so amazing ⭐️
the sadest part of your life is when the people give you the best memorie become a memorie
Will's lyrics are always the best. They give me these wonderful and heart wrenching impact.
Holy lemon
Sound like the original but it's in english...
❤️ when the notif came up.. i have never clicked so fast in my life
Thanks so much for this cover 💕✨
will's voice is actually perfect wtf
You sound great, and thank you for making this cover. 🙏
I would love to see this song remastered
The lyrics are awesome
You sound just like Kenshi somehow. Amazing, amazing work man, great translation and singing.
It's amazing how translyrics can differ so much depending on the interpretation yet still has the same general feeling of the original. This feels more like a breakup song, but about a life-lasting loss nonetheless
best cover so far
3:35 i am waiting for suprise background dancer 😂😂😂😂
well, I am not alone 😂
Beautiful. Love your covers. You always do such a great job and your voice is amazing!
Holy cows, the cover is so good and doesn't sound too awkward, kudos man!
I love this video. Thank you for making it.
Just Wooooow
I’m half Japanese so I know this song perfectly and it’s one of my favorite song.
Your lyrics are just perfect keeping the idea of the original lyric but on your way I have no words to describe this cover.
It’s more than perfect !!!!
This is the best English cover.
You are the best person doing english covers in the world
why the heck u so underrated man, u deserve MORE!!!
