Lyrics & Translation
It rings out loudly,
The blues of dawn,
Lonely and fleeting,
I dream a dream,
Dreaming,
The seasons change, still I am standing,
I'm still here,
With my memories, scars keep growing,
Again and again,
This flame that never wavers turns blue.
Quietly burning hot, it strikes my chest,
No matter how much time passes, I feel it won't fade.
Amidst overflowing feelings,
What I long for is
Just one,
One dream,
Holding that just in my heart,
One day,
Just focusing on it,
One place,
Can't go back to those days now,
Oh yeah yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah,
Just one,
This one,
Making it happen, one by one (I'm on my way),
Building step by step (I'm on my way),
This step to the future weaves everything together.
Even the tears from that day,
Shine bright like a blue diamond.
Now is the time to break free,
In overflowing feelings,
If your feelings are true and won't budge,
Just one,
One dream,
Holding that just in my heart,
One day,
Just focusing on it,
One place,
Can't go back to those days now,
Oh yeah yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah,
Just one,
This one,
Don't give up your soul,
Though the fight continues relentlessly,
The scenery ahead,
Is all yours.
The ideals you paint,
Until you hold them in your hands,
Keep dreaming,
Just one,
One dream,
Holding that just in my heart,
One day,
Just focusing on it,
One place,
Can't go back to those days now,
Oh yeah yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah,
Just one,
(One dream, one day)
(So now a better place only for me)
(Uh yeah, one dream once again)
(One to find)
(You're one, oh yeah)
