I’ve always been searching
For a place that suits me to linger around
If I were to let go, gently into the night
Perhaps I’d be at peace, but I wouldn’t be happy
Feelings shut up tight in the rusted depths of my heart
The one that shines upon me is you, innocently laughing
Beyond the screen, from the space between your headphones
If I could be there for you
Flying through the starry sky, taking you by the hand
Before the night slips away, let’s sketch out our dreams with starlight
Blowing away the storm clouds, into the rainshower of light
I’ll show the world I’ll be a first-magnitude star, never fading
Toward the future yet unseen, with my voice
I’ve always been wondering
About what defines this silhouette known as “me”
From the countless strips of film we’ve seen together
What I’ve cut out of them, surely makes me who I am
The warmth lingering in my heart
And my heartbeat, starting to thrum – they all belong to me
Even further beyond the light reflected in your eyes
We’ll go see it, since we’re together
With my hand stretched out in the twilight, I grasp at the traces of heat
I move forward together with the shadows stretched out at my feet, so I don’t lose my way
The dirt collected in the footprints from where I stepped forth
Will someday become everlasting stardust
I’ll never stop walking, until I reach your side
Once everything begins to glisten, until the break of dawn
Flying through the starry sky, flying through the starry sky,
Flying through the starry sky, into the rainshower of light
Flying through the starry sky, taking you by the hand
Before the night slips away, let’s sketch out our dreams with starlight
Wrapped in the morning glow, at your side underneath the heavens
Let’s show the world this first-magnitude star, never fading
Toward the future yet unseen, with my voice

ずっと探していたんだ
僕らしく漂える場所を
ふわりと解けてしまえば
楽になるでも楽しくはないから
錆びつく胸片隅に閉じ込めた
僕を照らすのはあどけなく笑う君
画面の向こうイヤホンの隙間から
君の事 救えるように
星空を駆けてゆけ 君の手を引っ張って
夜に溶けゆく前に 瞬きで夢を描く
雨雲を振り払って 注いだ光の中へ
色褪せない一等星になってみせるから
まだ見ぬ未来へ 僕の声を
ずっと迷っていたんだ
僕という輪郭の線を
君と見た数えきれないフィルムを
切り取ってできたもの それこそが僕らしさだ
心に留まった温もりも
騒ぎ出す鼓動も全部僕のもの
目に映った輝きのその向こう
君とだから見にいくんだ
夕暮れ空伸ばした手に 帯びた熱を掴んで
足元伸びる影と 共に進む迷わぬように
踏み出した足跡に 溜まった泥もいつの日か
かけがえない星の砂になってくれるから
歩み止めないで 君の元へ
煌めきになる 夜明けが来るまで
星空を駆けてゆけ 星空を駆けてゆけ
星空を駆けてゆけ 注いだ光の中へ
星空を駆けてゆけ 君の手を引っ張って
夜に溶けゆく前に 瞬きで夢を描く
朝焼け包み込んだ 空の下君のそばで
色褪せない一等星になってみせるから
まだ見ぬ未来へ 僕の声を
Translation Notes
- 楽になるでも楽しくはないから / Perhaps I’d be at peace, but I wouldn’t be happy – both “peace” and “happy” are the same kanji, but with different readings. This highlights that the feelings are simultaneous but still opposing!
