English Translation
Everything I saw as a child
My aspirations and dreams
They’re still in my pocket
Even now, as I wait
For the day I meet you again
Though I may stumble and fall
Though I may shed some tears
Tomorrow is a new day
A different future than yesterday
So why not try to believe just a little longer
For today to be
Your special day
The magic key
Has always been in your pocket
All you need is a little courage
The more you love
There will be nights of hurt
But you know what?
At the end of the road
What you’ll find
Will be your very own
Irreplaceable dream
As we grow older
We forget our aspirations and dreams
And desperately protect
Our happiness that is “just enough”
Putting a lock on their pockets
Not everyone can
Make their dreams come true, I know..
If you live by others’ rules
Slimmer the chances of getting hurt, I guess..
Oh, who am I making excuses to?
When I was a child
I envisioned the ideal world
And each time harsh reality
Tore me down
And I took a step
Towards becoming a boring adult
Then the vibrant colors of the world would begin to fade
The more I get lost
The older I grow
I’ve had my share of regrets
But it’s still not too late
Let’s go make your dreams come true
For today to be
Your special day
The magic key
Has always been in your pocket
All you need is a little courage
Everybody’s scared
To jump for their dream
So just keep walking
At the end of the road
What you’ll find
Will be your very own
Irreplaceable dream
