Tooi kono machi de
| daisuki datta ano uta furui TE-PU no naka chiisa na KIZU iroaseta TAITORU nijinda yoake |
I loved that song on the old tape Little scratches, a faded title... A blurry dawn. |
| soshite mata kyou ga kuru natsu no kaze wo tsurete narete-yuku hibi no katasumi de futo kodoku ni deau |
And so, the day repeats itself accompanied by a summer breeze In a corner of the familiar day-by-day routine I suddenly meet with loneliness |
| jitensha de doko made mo kaze wo keru hayasa wasurenai |
I'll never forget how fast I could kick the wind on my bike, going however far I wanted. |
| la la la la utaou sora wo miagete la la la la It's my life aruite yukou watashi no chikara de susumu hateshinai kono michi wo |
la la la la I'll sing Looking up at the sky la la la la It's my life I'll walk on Using my own strength to go forward along this endless road. |
| ikutsumono kousaten itsumo mayou kedo nagasaretari oikosaretari shite ima wo ikite'ru |
With so many crossroads, I'm always lost, but though sometimes I wander and sometimes I fall off the path I'm living the present |
| butsukaru koto mitomeru koto otona ni natte mo wasurenai |
Clashing with others, accepting others... Even when I grow up I'll never forget. |
| la la la la utaou sora wo miagete la la la la It's my life aruite yukou watashi dake no mono dakara jishin motte ii yo ne |
la la la la I'll sing Looking up at the sky la la la la It's my life I'll walk on It's something that's mine alone, so I guess I can have some confidence in myself |
| umareta machi de yume mite kita kujikeru tabi ni omoidasu ano uta no you ni ima dekiru koto wa sukoshi demo mae ni fumidasu koto |
In the town we were born in, we dreamed Everytime I'm crushed, I remember that just like that song, there's something I can do right now: step forward, even if just a little. |
| lalalala utaou sora wo miagete lalalala It's my life aruite yukou |
la la la la I'll sing Looking up at the sky la la la la It's my life I'll walk on |
| la la la la utaou sora wo miagete la la la la It's my life aruite yukou watashi no chikara de susumu hateshinai kono michi wo |
la la la la I'll sing Looking up at the sky la la la la It's my life I'll walk on, Using my own strength to go forward along this endless road. |
