Sakigake—translating to "pioneer" or "Pathfinder", known before launch as MS-T5—was Japan's first interplanetary spacecraft, and the first deep space probe to be launched by any country other than the USA or the Soviet Union. It aimed to demonstrate the performance of the new launch vehicle, test the schemes of the first escape from the Earth gravitation for Japan on engineering basis, and observe space plasma and magnetic field in interplanetary space. Sakigake was also supposed to get references for scientists. Early measurements would be used to improve the mission of the Suisei probe several months later.
Sakigake was developed by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science for the National Space Development Agency (both of which are now part of the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency, or JAXA). It became a part of the Halley Armada together with Suisei, the Soviet/French Vega probes, the ESA Giotto and the NASA International Cometary Explorer, to explore Halley's Comet during its 1986 sojourn through the inner solar system.
( Verse 1 )Coz all I know is that my
lips will always tremble
Every time I see your smile,
I haven't see you for awhile
I know I know I guess I'm stuck in loves denile
Its so obviously,
so absolutely crushing me tonight
I rode the ups and downs
of loves merry-go-round
But I'm tired now and all I want to do
Is go to bed and dream of you
And the way we use to be
You're my sweetest memory
So I will pretend tonight
And if I have to a few more times
Ohh how I wish
( Chorus )
I didn't have to love you like this
Only in my dreams and memories
I wish I didn't love you like this
Pretending you still love me
I wish I didn't love you like this
Ohh how I wish I never
I wish I didn't love you like this
( Verse 2 )
Constant reminders of how good we use to be
Its like living out your favorite love story
But without the happy ending
I said god damn I can't believe I let her get to me
I wish I didn't have to feel like this
But memories, can be ohh so ever haunting
But I won't deny it but I wish I could hide it
But its better pretending like you do
That love is just a word on my birthday card
It was never ever easy getting
through to you I wish
( Chorus )
I didn't have to love you like this
Only in my dreams and memories
I wish I didn't love you like this
Pretending you still love me
I wish I didn't love you like this
Ohh how I wish I never
I wish I didn't love you like this
( Chorus )
Ohh how I wish
I didn't have to love you like this
Only in my dreams and memories
I wish I didn't love you like this
Pretending you still love me
I wish I didn't love you like this
Ohh how I wish I never
