It's written by Yumi Kimura, who wrote and sang the theme song for Spirited Away. However, this time the theme song will be sung by the actress, Chieko Baisho, who voices Sophie, the heroine of the film. Joe Hisaishi, who is composing the soundtrack, re-arranged the song for the actress.
You can listen to Yumi Kimura sing it here. It sounds pretty. (Scroll down to the second pink box, look for two little music notes. The song you're looking for is the second one, with a longer title, and it means "The promise of the world." The first song is called "Shooting star" and that's pretty too.)
