Kanji:

旅の理由を言葉にすることに、どれほどの意味があるんでしょうか

それは、愛した理由や人生の存在意義を言葉にするときの無力感に

どこか似ていて、僕の口をつぐませるんです

･･･しかし僕はあの日、あの街を出ることを選びました

それほど昔のことではない筈なんですけど

もうずいぶんと時が経った気がするのは、

歩んできた距離や時間のせいだけではないのでしょうね

憎しみばかりを胸に抱いて生きていた頃は

偽善ばかりが視界を覆っていて

･･･ましてや愛など到底見えるはずもなく

自分自身に辟易しながら

止まない雨の夜を抜け出せずにいました

時折この道を、あの日々を振り返る

砂挨の向こうに見えた･･･あの人は誰なんでしょう

僕によく似た眼をしていたんですが･･･

長い間忘れていたようなぬくもりを

最近はちょっと自慢出来る程度に感じるんですよ？

‥‥‥ああ、今日もいい天気ですね

少し短かめな生命線を太陽にかざして

‥‥‥僕はまだ、旅を続けています

English:

How much meaning is there

To put the reason of my trip into words...?

I can't say it, because the impossibility is somehow like

Putting the reason for loving or peoples' existence into words...

But that day, I decided to leave that town.

It's not even something that happened that long ago,

But it already feels like a good amount of time has gone by.

Maybe it's not only because of the distance traveled and the time passed...

I have something on my mind

Something so sweet

I have something on my mind

Something so sweet

I have something on my mind

Something so sweet

I have something on my mind

Something so sweet

In that time when I held only hatred to my heart

Only hypocrisy covered my entire field of vision...

There was no way I could see love

If I get overwhelmed by myself...

I was in the night of endless rain, unable to get out

Sometimes, I look back upon this road, upon those days

At the end of the sandstorm... who was that person I saw?

Who had a look so similar to mine...

The warmth that I had forgotten about for so long

Lately I can feel it a bit again

...The weather is nice today, too

Just a little, extend that short lifeline to the sun

I will still, continue on my trip...

I have something in my mind

Something so sweet

I have something in my mind

Something so sweet

I have something in my mind

Something so sweet

I have something in my mind

Something so sweet

I have something in my mind

Something so sweet

I have something in my mind

Something so sweet
