Pocari Sweat
Pocari Sweat (ポカリスエット, Pokari Suetto) is a Japanese sports drink, manufactured by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. It was launched in 1980, and is now also available in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
Pocari Sweat is a mild-tasting, relatively light, non-carbonated sweet beverage and is advertised as an "ion supply drink". It has a mild grapefruit flavor with little aftertaste. Ingredients listed are water, sugar, citric acid, trisodium citrate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium lactate, magnesium carbonate, and flavoring. It is sold in aluminium cans, PET bottles, and as a powder for mixing with water. An artificially sweetened version with reduced sugar called Pocari Sweat Ion Water (ポカリスエット イオンウォーター, Pokari Suetto Ion Wōtā) is also sold.
Nomenclature
The reference to sweat in the name of the beverage tends to have a certain off-putting or humorous connotation for native English speakers. However, the name was chosen by the manufacturers originally for the purpose of marketing the product as a sports drink in Japan, where English words are used differently. It was largely derived from the notion of what it is intended to supply to the drinker: all of the nutrients and electrolytes lost when sweating. The first part of the name, Pocari, does not have any meaning; the word was coined for its light, bright sound.

Love You Till I Die
by: BaccaraLove you till I die
I think I'm really gonna love you till I die
Somehow you make me wanna love you till I die
I've never known a love to last
I've seen a lot of loves go past
I don't know how, but I know why
I'm gonna love you till I die
Love you till I die
I think I'm really gonna love you till I die
It's no use fighting it and I won't even try
Your ways are hypnotizing me
I feel in chains and I feel free
I don't know how, but I know why
I'm gonna love you till I die
Love you till I die
My love will be a river never running dry
Deep as the deepest ocean, like a mountain high
A summer breathe, a thunderstorm
It's our romance that keeps me warm
It's not confession but it's true
I dedicate my life to you
You will make me cry
You'll make me sing and you will give me wings to fly
I will believe you and I'm sure that you will lie
I don't expect a wedding ring
'Cause it's a never lasting thing
And there's no power to steal me now
Apart from those to clear my
Love you till I die
I think I'm really gonna love you till I die,
Somehow you make me wanna love you till I die
I've never known a love to last
I've seen a lot of loves go past
I don't know how, but I know why
I'm gonna love you till I die
I don't know how, but I know why
I'm gonna love you till I die
Love you till I die
I think I'm really gonna love you till I die,
Somehow you make me wanna love you till I die
I've never known a love to last
I've seen a lot of loves go past
I don't know how, but I know why
I'm gonna love you till I die
I don't know how, but I know why
I'm gonna love you till I die
