Lyrics & Translation
Only what you see isn't the whole truth
Listen carefully, sharpen your senses
Unnamed feelings surge and crash over me
Even if I give everything,
I vow to protect it all
Even if I have to take the devil's hand
I wanna be your hero
No matter how far apart we are, I'll fly to you
The strength to go beyond both distance and time
With the bonds we've built
If I could hold onto this moment
It would lead us toward a future where light pours down
I'm missing you
Missing you
I'm missing you
My heart is crying out, so strongly
I'm missing you
Stronger and stronger, even more
Stop crying, brush off the dust
The back I chased fades into my eyelids
If your little hands can't hold it all
It's okay to exchange everything for it
Even if I lose it, it's not a sacrifice
I'll keep the promises we've made
I wanna be your hero
I've always been watching only you
Surely, with the purest heart than anyone else
The miracle I wished for
Will someday change form
And become the path called hope, leading the way
I promise you
As the things I cherish grow more and more
Even when I become afraid and feel crushed
The fiery blood coursing through my body
My memories speak to me
I wanna be your hero
Repeated, unconditional love
The unshakable power to believe wholeheartedly
The miracle I wished for
Will someday change form
And become a path called hope...
I wanna be...
I wanna be your hero
No matter how far apart we are, I will fly to you
The power to go beyond distance and time
With the bonds we've built
If I could hold onto this moment
It would lead us to a future where light pours down
I'm missing you
Missing you
I'm missing you
My heart is crying out, so strongly
I'll be with you
I promise you
Stronger and stronger, even more
