Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

僕が夢を忘れそうな時

Whenever I feel like I might forget my dreams

君の涙で思い出す

Your tears remind me of the past

何の為に歩いてきたのか

Why have I kept walking this path?

何度でも教えてくれる

You teach me over and over again

土手に垂れた 二度目の春を

The second spring that dripped down the embankment

連れて歩いた 片恋風

Carrying along a one-sided love, a wandering breeze

君といつか 同じ枝の上

Someday, I want to stand on the same branch with you

並んで咲いてみたい

And blossom side by side

時々 切ない瞳で笑うのは

Sometimes, with sad eyes, you smile

まだ 見せられない心があるんだね

You have a heart that you can't show yet

こんなにか細く 折れそうな

Even at the tips of fragile, seemingly about to break

枝の先にも 君の未来が生まれてる

Your future is being born on those branches

未だ見ぬ日々を 切り落とさないで

Please don't cut away the days we haven't seen yet

今を笑って 振り返る 君を守りたい

I want to protect you, as you laugh and look back at now

君が心折れそうな時

Whenever you feel your heart breaking

この肩にもたれてくれたら

Lean on my shoulder if you can

抱えていた大きな荷物も

Even the heavy baggage you're carrying

大切に運ぶから

I will carry it carefully

僕の明日には いつでも 君がいて

In my tomorrow, you'll always be there

どんな迷いも鎮める 風になる

Becoming the wind that calms all doubts

このまま好きでいれるのなら

If I can keep loving you like this

想いは届けぬままでいいと

It's okay if my feelings aren't delivered yet

結ばれぬまま 解けもしない

Remaining unfulfilled, our hearts won't untie

心深くに 身を知る雨

A rain that knows my soul deep inside

こんなにか細く 折れそうな

Even at the tips of fragile, seemingly about to break

枝の先にも 君の未来が生まれてる

Your future is being born on those branches

未だ見ぬ日々を 切り落とさないで

Please don't cut away the days we haven't seen yet

今を笑って 振り返る 君を守りたい

Someday, I want to stand on the same branch with you

心深くに 身を知る雨 抱きしめる

And blossom side by side

そばにいたいから

Embracing the rain that knows me deep inside

そばにいたいから

Because I want to stay close
