Japanese / Kanji Lyrics 歌詞

ずっとさがしてた こんなEMOTION
君がふいに 胸の扉あけてくれたから


どんな宝石も 色あせるほど
ピュアな気持ち 眠っていたのね

夢を追いかけたら 笑顔と涙の数
だんだん増えてゆくこと 知っているけど

ときにはもっと私らしく 風を感じたい
太陽もスコールも みんな受けとめるから
明日はもっと私らしく 歩きはじめたい
誰でもない"私"の未来を みつけたくて

ずっと忘れてた 熱いDEVOTION
きっと君も 弱さを抱きしめていたんだね

遠く果てしなく 行ける場所まで
自分のリミット 越えるそのために

いつか時が過ぎて 思い出になる頃
心を燃やしたことを 誇れるように

ときにはもっと私らしく 風を感じたい
星空も暗闇も まっすぐみつめるから
明日はもっと私らしく 歩きはじめたい
たった今のきらめきをいつも 大事にして

ときにはもっと私らしく 風を感じたい
太陽もスコールも みんな受けとめるから
明日はもっと私らしく 歩きはじめたい
誰でもない"私"の未来を みつけたくて

English Translation Lyrics

I've been looking for so long for a emotion like this
since you suddenly opened the door of my heart

A feeling so pure was sleeping
than it can dye any jewel

I know that if chase that dream, smiles and tears
will grow in number, but even still...

Sometimes I want to feel the wind more like I used to do
and holding everything, like sun and rain
Tomorrow I would like to start walking more like I used to do
looking nobody else's but "my" future

I did forgot for so long a devotion so warm
surely you were holding that weakness

Going to a faraway, out of reach place
just to surpass your own limit

And when time passes and you remember it
you will be proud of your burning heart

Sometimes I want to feel the wind more like I used to do
And looking straight at darkness and the starry sky
Tomorrow I would like to start walking more like I used to do
Taking care forever of the shine of this very moment

Sometimes I want to feel the wind more like I used to do
And holding everything, like sun and rain
Tomorrow I would like to start walking more like I used to do
Looking nobody else's but "my" future
