Lyrics

kimi to issho naraba donna kurayami mo terasesou

English Translation

With you, I can light any darkness
Even the past, future and present

When you are sad, I want to fill you with a ray of light
Don’t take on too much of everything

To the future nobody knows

I don’t want to hurt you anymore
Because I want to protect just one thing
Only your smile

I don’t want to hurt you
Because I want to protect just one thing
Keep smiling

Hey, I’ll be the ray
That lights up even sadness

Hey, you become anxious anytime
Because you are kind
Even the hair in dark red

You see, it’s tangled, can’t unravel
Even if the past hurts me
I protect you at least
That’s what I’ve decided

I don’t want to hurt you anymore
Because I want to protect just one thing
Hey, smile

The past we can’t go back became your tears
You don’t need the kindness
That makes you live someone else’s life

When I was close to hurting you
You stayed next to me and smiled

I decided I won’t hurt you anymore
A ray of light fills my heart

But
The deep scar engraved in your heart
No one could heal it

Hey, I want to be the ray
That lights up even sadness
With you, a ray of light
To the future nobody knows
