Kokoro no Takarabako
Trouble with the audio sample?

"Kokoro no Takarabako" (心のたからばこ, The Heart's Treasure Chest^?) is the ending theme for Chocobo Racing. The thirtieth track in the original soundtrack, the music was written by Kenji Ito, with arrangements by Shirō Hamaguchi. The Japanese lyrics are written by Takashi Tokita, and sung by Hiromi Ohta alongside the Suzukake Children's Choir.

"Diamonds in My Heart" is the English version counterpart. It is sung by Vicki Bell.

LyricsEdit

"Diamonds in My Heart"Edit

Do you remember the days when we had a long long way to go

And you were there for me, as I was there for you to be around

The sun was shining brightly down on us so gently

That we thought we could go on for as long and as far as we pleased

Hand in hand, forever and far more, we would run, we'd never have enough

Didn’t even need know if it was time to eat or time to sleep

On and on, the hours tick away so the memories can go astray

How I miss the days of golden sun; and please, I'd rather be with you

I still remember the days when we had a long long time to share

That's when I saw you there, looking as tired as I used to be

"Hello", I said unsurely; you smiled a little shyly

Soon we knew we would go on together on a journey to our dreams

Hand in hand, forever and far more, we would run, we'd never have enough

Didn't even care to ask how far away from home we'd have to go

On and on, the hours tick away, so the memories can go astray

Oh I miss the never-ending road, and sure, I'd rather be with you

Sweet summer breeze or autumn leaves

Through winter skies and blooming flowers of spring

Friends and their laughter, precious and kind

Let all shine like diamonds in my heart

All along, I'm here to find the way to the dream we used to have before

And I hope to see again your smiling face along the way somewhere

If you hear me calling out today and you see the meaning of it all

Come and join me on this space again; you know, tomorrow will be there
