[English]

Hey, the hesitant pair, fingers dancing in the air

Yes, when we touch, I’ve come to know the tenderness of new love

Hey, the blurry line between right and wrong

Yes, even if we cross it, probably no one will know

Listening closely to your voice

Even trying to focus on your smile, your eyes

Trying to touch your heart

Yet I can't reach you

If there’s a world without tears

Lead me there right now

In a future where you're not here, all alone

Searching for a love I can never meet again

Hey, the footprints I carved into the snow seem

Like the tenderness of love that disappears with time

Hey, the days of memories we painted together

Thinking they would last forever, I was so naive

Cries are carried away by the wind

Even touching feels cold and distant now

I keep calling your name over and over again

Until I finally reach you someday

If there’s a world without tears

Even now, I want to be with you

Whether it’s an illusion or just a dream, it’s okay

I want to see that smile again, from that day

Please smile for me

It was just natural, I could see it there

But the snow stained and erased the scenery we once saw

Even the words I embraced countless times

No longer carry the warmth of that day

Colors, taste, scent, everything has vanished

Like this lost town

I'll be there

Forever

Like the wind that surrounds you

[Japanese]

ねえ 躊躇いがちな二人 宙を舞う指が

そう 触れ合う時 始まりの愛しさを知ったよ

ねえ 正解と間違いの曖昧な境界[さかい]

そう 踏み越えていてもきっと誰も分からない

君の声に耳を澄ましても

君の笑顔 瞳[め]を凝らしてみても

君の心 触れてみようとしても

君に届きはしない

涙のない世界があるのなら

今すぐに僕を導いて

君がいない未来で一人きり

もう二度とめぐり逢えない愛を探してる

ねえ 雪の上に刻んだ足跡はまるで

そう 時と共に消えてゆく愛しさのようで

ねえ 二人で描いてきた想い出の日々が

そう 永遠に続くなんて思い上がりだね

叫び声は風に消えてゆく

触れてみても冷めた感触だけ

その名前を何度も呼ぶよ

いつか君に届く時まで

涙のない世界があるのなら

今更でも君と行きたい

幻覚[まぼろし]でもただの夢でもいい

もう一度あの日の君に

微笑んでほしい

当たり前にそこに見えた

景色を雪が白く汚しては消えた

何万回も抱きしめた言葉にも

あの日の体温はもう無いよ

色も味も匂いも何もかも

失ったこの街のように

I'll be there

Forever

君をつつむ風のように
