Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
好きな人と歩いた場所も	suki na hito to aruita basho mo	The place where I walked with the person I liked.
その時見た景色も	sono toki mita keshiki mo	The scenery I saw during that time.
振り返らず　今を駆け抜け	furikaerazu ima o kakenuke	Not looking back, I run past them now.
私は何と出会うの	watashi wa nani to deau no	What would I be coming across now?

立ち止まるほど　意味を問うほど	tachidomaru hodo imi o tou hodo	Trying to stop, trying to find the meaning.
きっとまだ大人ではなくて	kitto mada otona de wa nakute	Maybe I may have not matured yet.
今見てるもの　今出会う人	ima miteru mono ima deau hito	The things I’m seeing, the people I’m meeting.
その中でただ前だけを見てる	sono naka de tada mae dake o miteru	In them, I’m just looking at what's ahead.

10年後の私へ	juunengo no watashi e	To my future self of 10 years,

今は幸せでしょうか？	ima wa shiawase deshou ka?	Are you happy right now?
それとも悲しみで	soretomo kanashimi de	Or are you sad
泣いているのでしょうか？	naite iru no deshou ka?	and crying?

けどあなたの傍に	kedo anata no soba ni	But beside you,
変わらないものがあり	kawaranai mono ga ari	there’s something that doesn’t change
気付いていないだけで	kizuiteinai dake de	Without you noticing,
守られていませんか？	mamorarete imasen ka?	haven't you been looked after?

過ぎし日々に　想いを預け	sugishi hibi ni omoi o azuke	To days past, I am entrusting my feelings.
時間だけ　ただ追いかけてく	jikan dake tada oikaketeku	And time is the only thing I can chase.
背に寄り添った　誰かの夢に	se ni yorisotta dareka no yume ni	Getting close behind someone else’s dream
振り向ける日がいつか来るのかな	furimukeru hi ga itsuka kuru no kana	Will those days come back someday?

10年後の私へ	juunengo no watashi e	To my future self of 10 years,

今は誰を好きですか？	ima wa dare o suki desu ka?	Who do you like right now?
それとも変わらずに	soretomo kawarazu ni	Or do you still
あの人が好きですか？	ano hito ga suki desu ka?	like that person?

けどいつか	kedo itsuka	But
知らない誰かを愛する前に	shiranai dareka o aisuru mae ni	before you try to love somebody else,
自分のことを好きと	jibun no koto o suki to	Would you be able to say
言えるようになれましたか？	ieru you ni naremashita ka?	that you love yourself?

大切な人たちは	taisetsu na hitotachi wa	Those people you hold dear,
今も変わらずいますか？	ima mo kawarazu imasu ka?	are they still beside you?
それとも遠く離れ	soretomo tooku hanare	Or are they far away,
それぞれ歩んでいますか？	sorezore ayunde imasu ka?	and walking their own paths?

けど　そんな出会いを	kedo sonna deai o	But after all those encounters
別れを　繰り返して	wakare o kurikaeshite	and partings,
「今の私」よりも	"ima no watashi" yori mo	Will you be more wonderful
すてきになっていますか？	suteki ni natte imasu ka?	than I am today?

10年後の私へ	juunengo no watashi e	To my future self of 10 years,

今がもし幸せなら	ima ga moshi shiawase nara	If you are happy right now,
あの日の私のこと	ano hi no watashi no koto	Would you
思い出してくれますか	omoidashite kuremasu ka	remember me that day?

そこにはつらいことに	soko ni wa tsurai koto ni	Even though
泣いた私がいるけど	naita watashi ga iru kedo	I was crying in pain that time,
その涙を優しく	sono namida o yasashiku	Kindly change these tears
思い出に変えてください	omoide ni kaete kudasai	into memories.
