[English]

If we leap high, high toward the stars beyond, someday

I’ll take you all the way to the edge of the rainbow

Barefoot as we are, no one can stop our journey

Let’s go—to our glory days

“I wish I had wings to fly somewhere far from here”

You whispered with a smile, your words still scarred

Holding even the faintest prayers close to your heart

“We can go anywhere!” you cried through tears

(La-la-la) If they say there’s no answer

You can’t just close your eyes and let it pass (la-la-la)

That’s not who we are

If we leap high, high toward the stars beyond, someday

I’ll take you all the way to the edge of the rainbow

Barefoot as we are, no one can interfere

With our tomorrow—to our glory days

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

The more I care, the more I fear causing pain

So I locked away the darkness deep inside

“Maybe it’s okay to be foolish”—your words

Shook my heart awake, and I started running again

(La-la-la) Since time won’t turn back

How could I ever say to forget it all? (la-la-la)

That’s just impossible

If your heart falls into the darkness of night, restless

I’ll stay by your side until dawn breaks

So let’s keep moving down this path toward tomorrow

Let’s go—to our glory days, yeah

To the stars beyond (la-la-la-la)

To the edge of the rainbow (whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

Open the door, and we won’t let anyone stop our journey

Let’s go together—to our glory days

Carrying our wishes in our hearts—for our glory days

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

[Japanese]

星の彼方へ 高く高く飛び跳ねればいつか

虹の果てまで連れて行ってあげる

裸足のままで 誰にも僕らの旅を止めさせない

さぁ行こう to our glory days

ここではないどこかへ 跳べる羽根が欲しいと

傷だらけの言葉を笑顔で呟いた

ほんの僅かな祈りを 胸に強く抱きしめ

どこにだって行けるだろう 泣きながら叫んでた

(La-la-la) 答えの無いことだと

目を閉じやり過ごすなど (la-la-la)

できる訳ないだろう

星の彼方へ 高く高く飛び跳ねればいつか

虹の果てまで連れて行ってあげる

裸足のままで 誰にも僕らの明日を

邪魔させてはいけない to our glory days

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

大切に思うほどに 傷つけること恐れて

この胸の奥の闇に そっと鍵をかけたんだ

愚かものでいいんじゃない あなたのその言葉が

僕の心を震わせ また駆け出してた

(La-la-la) 時は戻れないから

全て忘れてなんて (la-la-la)

言える訳ないだろう

もしも心が夜の闇に堕ちて眠れぬなら

夜が明けるまで隣りにいてあげる

だから僕らの明日へと渡るこの道をただ進む

さぁ行こう to our glory days, yeah

星の彼方へ (la-la-la-la)

虹の果てまで (whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

扉を開けて 誰にも僕らの旅を止めさせない

共に行こう to our glory days

願いをこの胸に for our glory days

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya
