Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation

君の言葉には いくつの意味が

kimi no kotoba ni ha ikutsu no imi ga

あるように聞こえるから what is what?

aru you ni kikoeru kara what is what ?

謎の足跡 見つけたら follow

nazo no ashiato mitsuke tara follow

追い込まれる my shadows

oikoma reru my shadows

光の裏側に潜めた what?

hikari no uragawa ni hisome ta what ?

会えない君だけが知る my answer

ae nai kimi dake ga shiru my answer

途切れる前に I wanna know everything

togireru mae ni I wanna know everything

時が流れるほど 深まる君の

toki ga nagareru hodo fuka maru kimi no

過去と未来の間にいる僕は今

kako to mirai no ma ni iru boku ha ima

Don't leave me, I believe 走り出す

Don ' t leave me , I believe hashiridasu

No ending 君は僕の鼓動

No ending kimi ha boku no kodou

例えどんな 雨に打たれても

例えどんな 闇に消されても

tatoe donna yami ni kesa re te mo

救い出すよ必ず

君は独りじゃない

動くはずない時計の針が今

一歩一歩踏み出すように moving on

ichi ho ichi ho fumidasu you ni moving on

Calling me, passing me

すれ違い all of it, destiny

surechigai all of it , destiny

それでも始まる one way race

soredemo hajimaru one way race

離れ始めても that's OK

hanare hajime te mo that ' s OK

You don't gotta worry 'bout a thing

Nah, not a thing

今度は俺が送る番

kondo ha ore ga okuru ban

必ず届ける your thoughts

kanarazu todokeru your thoughts

時が戻せるなら出直せるのに

toki ga modoseru nara denaoseru noni

陰と光の間にいる君は泣く

kage to hikari no ma ni iru kimi ha naku

Don't leave me, I believe 手を伸ばす

Don ' t leave me , I believe te wo nobasu

No ending 君が僕の希望

No ending kimi ga boku no kibou

例えどんな 雨に打たれても

tatoe donna ame ni uta re te mo
