Lyrics;
When I was young, I was dreaming a dream.
Playground for old mysteries.
It could be something, when I think about this time.
When I was young, innocent.
Playing with rain, how I loved to get wet.
Sweet memories when you're old.
Thinking of nothing, just enjoying the moments.
When we grow old feeling young.
Happy childhood, happy old times.
Memories too sweet to be real.
What will it be if it wasn't a dream.
Life, is a mirror.
When we grow old, like an old crumbling tree.
Sweet memories flying high.
Swimming in darkness, unaware of the danger.
Those memories brings me joy.
Laughing myself why I'm feeling so scared.
Just a big sound scared me off.
Lifting myself up, like a bird. Watching fire.
Seeing it all from above.
Happy childhood. Happy old times.
Memories too sweet to be real.
What will it be If it wasn't a dream.
Life, is a mirror.
When I was young, insecure and afraid.
Trying my best to be brave.
Looking for something that could lift up my spirit.
What is the meaning of life.
Is it a night, with the dream vision on?
Or is it just fashion show?
Looking for answer in a cloud full of questions.
What will be next after this?
Happy childhood, happy old times,
Memories to sweet to be real.
What will it be, if it wasn't a dream?
Life, is a mirror.

Lovely lyric and melody with a very sympathetic arrangement behind it.
The vocaloid was very disconcerting though.
Not a spoiler but odd - though it does gives a clue of how the song would sound with a sweet girly vocal. Personally I think it'd have the sweet spot with a more mature voice.
Cool stuff nonetheless.

Hey Leo,
I think this is my new favorite from you! There's a lot to like here:

The chord progression is very good, and the melody works very well with it! Put my name on the list of people who would like to hear the song with a human female vocalist! But apart from that, I thought this was a very good implementation of the vocaloid! It is very easy to understand, and overall, it really sounds pretty darn good!

The few places where the song paused on a held note from the vocaloid seemed a bit jarring to me... but not so much as to undermine the listening experience!

As I said, this my new favorite from you!

Hello, Leo

This is very nice. The strings, trombone and the chord progressions are going together very well.
Your vocaloid sings it so soft and fine.
Maybe I like this one the most of your vocaloid songs.
Melody: BIAB subscribed on your soundcloud page.
Is this mean Melody Maker was used on this song?
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best Regards.
