Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

How long has it been

How long has it been?

雨は泣き止んでた

The rain has stopped crying.

まとわりつくノイズを塞ぐ手が

Hands that block out the clingy noise.

永遠なんて信じない君を連れ

Taking along someone who doesn't believe in forever.

There's nothing to hold us back

There's nothing to hold us back.

Don't look back on your past

Don't look back on your past.

疑いながらも

Even while doubting.

I will shine on your way その先へ

I will shine on your path ahead.

Grab the air

Grab the air.

We can try to fly, fly

We can try to fly, fly.

And take me there

And take me there.

When you cry, cry with you

When you cry, I cry with you.

How long can we escape

How long can we run away?

出口もない moon light

No exit, just moonlight.

薄明かりに歪んだ影から

From shadows distorted by the dim light.

こんなんじゃないと信じない君を連れ

Taking along someone who doesn't believe this isn't who they are.

There's nothing to hold us back

There's nothing to hold us back.

It's your voice that change direction

Your voice is the one that changes the direction.

I see your pain as perfection

I see your pain as perfection.

You know, as long as we're together

You know, as long as we're together.

We can go on forever

We can go on forever.

Grab the air

Grab the air.

We can try to fly

We can try to fly.

Take me there

Take me there.

When you cry, cry

When you cry, I cry.

Grab the air

Grab the air.

We can try to fly

We can try to fly.

And take me there

And take me there.

When you cry, cry with you

When you cry, I cry with you.

...

...

...

...

Don't look back on your past

Don't look back on your past.

疑いながらも

Even while doubting.

I will shine on your way その先へ

I will shine on your way ahead.

Grab the air

Grab the air.

Won't you take me there?

Won't you take me there?

Grab the air

Grab the air.

We can try to fly

We can try to fly.

Take me there

Take me there.

When you cry, cry

When you cry, I cry.

Grab the air

Grab the air.

We can try to fly

We can try to fly.

Take me there

Take me there.

When you cry, cry with you

When you cry, I cry with you.
