Lyrics

TV Version

English

Don't worry,you will soon forget...
about the sadness piling on your shoulders
by being embraced by the hands of a shooting star.

Every time I sigh...
these days feel like they're eternally repeating themselves.

Although looking both right and left may feel like a detour,don't worry.
I'm sure the reason wind blows hard on you...
is so that the noise of the wind going between buildings...
will not reach your ears.

What's drawn on the sky is..
an adventure that connects the stars and the illusion that burns up my heart,
I certainly won't forget.
I'll just carry all the flowers,the tears, and the scars I found on the detour...
And keep on making my way.

Romaji

Wasurete shimau darou
Kata ni tsumoru kanashimi wa nagareru hoshi no te ni dakare

Tameiki hitotsu de risetto sareru
Mugen no ruupu no youna hibisa
Migi muke hidari ga toomawari demo sore de iinda

Kazega fukitsukeruno wa kiitto
Biru no sukima wo tobikau zatsuon ga

kimi ni kikoe nai youni

Yozora ni egakareta
Hoshi wo tsunagu monogatari sono mune kogareru gensou
Wasure wa shinai darou
Mawarimichi ni saiteta hana
Naita ato no kizuatomo kakaeta mama aruite yukeba ii

Full Version

Have you forgotten all the grief you bear on your shoulders has been embraced by the arms of a falling star.

The days that feel like infinite loops can be reset with just one sigh.
Even if it's a detour that goes right and left, you will be fine.
The blowing wind definitely makes a noise when it wafts through the crevices between buildings
where you can't hear it.

The night sky is drawn with a story connected by stars.
It's an illusion my heart yearns for.
Have you forgotten all the grief you bear on your shoulders has been embraced by the arms of a falling star.

That day when I didn't need a reason, but if the brilliance traced by my finger can
make you forget even sleep, then that will be fine.
The unrelenting rain surely mixed with the tears that flowed to your bitten lips
so that nobody would notice.

The night sky is drawn with a story connected by stars.
It's an illusion my heart yearns for.
Have you forgotten all the grief you bear on your shoulders has been embraced by the arms of a falling star.

I don't know the name of that star nor your name, but I can clearly see that brilliance from here.
The one to stop your tears, the one to share your dreams,to fulfill your wishes too won't be just anybody.
If it's not you, it can't be done.

The night sky is drawn with a story connected by stars.
It's an illusion my heart yearns for.
You haven't forgotten, have you. On that detour where the flowers that bloomed, all the tracks made
by your tears and your scars are beautiful, because it makes you what you are today.
