Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
薄紅の時を彩る花びら	usubeni no toki o irodoru hanabira	Cherry petals color early spring
ひらひら舞う光の中	hirahira mau hikari no naka	I had expected to be able to smile
僕は笑えたはず	boku wa waraeta hazu	In swaying lights.

鮮やかな日々に僕らが残した	azayaka na hibi ni bokura ga nokoshita	The sand castle we left behind on our vivid days
砂の城は波に溶けて	suna no shiro wa nami ni tokete	Is washed away by seawaves
きっと夢が終わる	kitto yume ga owaru	Our dreams will see an end

真っ白な世界で目を覚ませば	masshiro na sekai de me o samaseba	When I wake up in a milky-white world,
伸ばす腕は何もつかめない	nobasu ude wa nanimo tsukamenai	I can't catch anything with my outstretched arms
見上げた空が近くなるほどに	miageta sora ga chikaku naru hodo ni	What have I lost
僕は何を失った？	boku wa nani o ushinatta?	Even though the sky I looked up at came closer to me?

透通る波	sukitooru nami	Our silhouettes reflected on transparent waves
映る僕らの影は蒼く遠く	utsuru bokura no kage wa aoku tooku	Are so blue and far
あの日僕は世界を知り	ano hi boku wa sekai o shiri	I learned what the world was like that day
それは光となった	sore wa hikari to natta	And it shed light on my path

僕は歌うよ	boku wa utau yo	I'll sing for you
笑顔をくれた君が泣いてるとき	egao o kureta kimi ga naiteru toki	When you, who gave me smiles, are crying
ほんの少しだけでもいい	honno sukoshi dake de mo ii	I want to support you
君の支えになりたい	kimi no sasae ni naritai	Even if I can do little for you

僕が泣いてしまった日に	boku ga naite shimatta hi ni	As you supported me
君がそうだったように	kimi ga sou datta you ni	On days when I cried

僕がここに忘れたもの	boku ga koko ni wasureta mono	The things I've forgotten here
全て君がくれた宝物	subete kimi ga kureta takaramono	Are treasures you gave me
形のないものだけが	katachi no nai mono dake ga	Only formless things
時の中で色褪せないまま	toki no naka de iroasenai mama	Never fade away in the flow of time

透通る波	sukitooru nami	Even if transparent waves wash away sand castles
何度消えてしまっても	nando kiete shimatte mo	Many times
砂の城を僕は君と残すだろう	suna no shiro o boku wa kimi to nokosu darou	I'll let lights gather there
そこに光を集め	soko ni hikari o atsume	And make a new castle and leave it there with you

僕は歌うよ	boku wa utau yo	I'll sing for you
笑顔をくれた君が泣いてるとき	egao o kureta kimi ga naiteru toki	When you, who gave me smiles, are crying
頼りのない僕だけれど	tayori no nai boku da keredo	Even though I'm not dependable
君のことを守りたい	kimi no koto o mamoritai	I want to protect you

遠く離れた君のもとへ	tooku hanareta kimi no moto e	This light
この光が	kono hikari ga	Will fly to you
空を越えて羽ばたいてゆく	sora wo koete habataite yuku	Across the sky
そんな歌を届けたい	sonna uta o todoketai	I want to send a song to you like this

僕が送るものは全て	boku ga okuru mono wa subete	All things I send to you
形のないものだけど	katachi no nai mono da kedo	Are formless things
君の心の片隅で	kimi no kokoro no katasumi de	But I want them to shine
輝く星になりたい	kagayaku hoshi ni naritai	In a corner of your heart
