Lyrics
人はやがて
– hito wa yagate
消え去るの
– kiesaru no
すべてを残さずに
– subete wo nokosazu ni
綺麗にいなくなり
– kirei ni inaku nari
愛も傷も
– ai mo itamo
海の砂に混ざり
– umi no suna ni mazari
きらきら波間に反射する
– kirakira namima ni hansha suru
今のうちに
– ima no uchi ni
旅をしよう 僕らは
– tabi wo shiyou bokura wa
悲しみにひらひらと手を振る
– kanashimi ni hirahira to te wo furu
窓を開けて 風に笑み
– mado wo akete kaze ni emi
意味なく生きては
– imi naku ikite wa
陽射しを浴びている
– hizashi wo abite iru
過去 背なに雨
– kako se nani ame
目の前には
– me no mae ni wa
まだ知らぬ景色
– mada shiranu keshiki
惹かれ合うのは なぜ
– hikareau no wa naze
ただ「見て、綺麗」だと手を引いた
– tada “mite, kirei” da to te wo hiita
海にゆれる 光の跡
– umi ni yureru hikari no ato
消えてゆくのに なぜ
– kiete yuku no ni naze
ただ 忘れたくない思い出を
– tada wasuretaku nai omoide wo
増やすのだろう
– fuyasu no darou
ほら 終わりは
– hora owari wa
未来だ
– mirai da
繋ぐその手
– tsunagu sono te
やがて解けゆく
– yagate toke yuku
足跡はいつしか
– ashiato wa itsu shika
止まるはず
– tomaru hazu
それはまるで
– sore wa marude
訳もなく輝く
– wake mo naku kagayaku
貴方の笑顔の意味と知る
– anata no egao no imi to shiru
肩 寄せたまま
– kata yoseta mama
願うことは
– negau koto wa
黄昏の中に
– tasogare no naka ni
抱きしめるのは なぜ
– dakishimeru no wa naze
ただ 保存できない心ごと
– tada hozon dekinai kokorogoto
包み込むように
– tsutsumikomu you ni
ほら 景色が
– hora keshiki ga
増えた
– fueta
見つめ合う
– mitsumeau
無為が踊る
– mui ga odoru
手を繋ぐ
– te wo tsunagu
笑い合うのは なぜ
– waraiau no wa naze
ただ 朽ちるしかないこの時を
– tada kuchiru shika nai kono toki wo
僕ら燃える 命の跡
– bokura moeru inochi no ato
消えてゆくのに なぜ
– kiete yuku no ni naze
ただ 忘れたくない思い出を
– tada wasuretaku nai omoide wo
増やすのだろう
– fuyasu no darou
ほら 出会いは
– hora deai wa
未来だ
– mirai da
English Translation
Eventually
People fade from existence
Leaving nothing behind
Fading away completely
Love and wounds too
Become one with the ocean sand
Reflecting and glistening between the waves
Now’s our chance
Let’s go on a journey
Wave goodbye to our sorrows
Open the window and smile toward the wind
We go through life without meaning
And we’re basking in the sunlight
The past rains down on my back
Yet, before my eyes
There’s a landscape yet unknown
Why are we drawn to each other?
“Look, it’s beautiful,” you said simply, leading me by the hand
Traces of light shimmering on the sea
If they’re going to fade away
Why make memories we just don’t want to forget?
Don’t you see?
The end
Is the future
Joined hands
Eventually separate
Footprints
May come to a stop
It’s just like
Finding out the meaning behind your smile
Shining without rhyme or reason
Shoulder to shoulder
Wishing together
In the twilight
Why do we hold each other in our arms?
Embrace every heart that can’t be preserved
Don’t you see?
There’s still
More to explore
We look at each other
Inaction dances
As we hold hands
Why do we laugh at each other?
In this thing called “time” that can only fade away
We set our lives ablaze and leave our mark
If we’re going to fade away
Why make memories we just don’t want to forget?
Don’t you see?
Crossing paths
Is the future
