Lyrics & Translation

[English] "A rainbow arches across the sky after the rain"
But it's not that simple
Even this dreamer
Understands that much
A lot of preservatives
I hide them in my heart
It's not always sunny
So that I won't rot even on damp days
For example, out of a million times
There’s a miracle that happens just once
If I keep looking down
I might miss it
Come on
I believe in the rainbow that spans the sky today
Let's keep walking
If I wipe my tears with a lie that's too gentle
The rainbow is already there
"What does it all mean?"
I often think in terms of loss or gain
But if just one person can smile
That is a treasure
Everyone has dark clouds in their hearts
So as not to be swallowed by that darkness
Let's gently illuminate today
The past doesn't disappear
The future can't be read
Anxiety lingers
But if I'm going to change tomorrow, then now
Only now exists here
From far away, beyond the horizon
A pleasant breeze carries that light
And wraps us up
For example, out of a million times
There’s a miracle that happens just once
If I just keep looking straight ahead
Will I be able to meet it?
I believe in the rainbow that spans the sky today
Let's keep walking
If I wipe my tears with a lie that's too gentle
Look, the rainbow is right there
The past doesn't disappear
The future can't be read
Anxiety lingers
But if I'm going to change tomorrow, then now
Only now exists there
Surely
The rainbow is already here
