Kanji:

誓い合った約束(うんめい)ずっと胸に抱いて

ここまで来たもう逃げはしない

今と向き合うために

行こう　君と共に

幼い日二人で過ごした季節

夢(みらい)語って笑い合っていた

離れていた時間は無情なほどに

全て奪ったあの日の君の笑顔も

鮮明な記憶と刹那の眼差しが

交差しては二人を遠ざける

止まっていた時計(じかん)を取り戻すために今

すれ違った日々を越える　あの日の絆で

誓い合った約束(うんめい)ずっと胸に抱いて

全て込め撃ち抜くストライク

何も恐れはしない

行こう　君と共に

届けたい想いがあるはずなのに

素直になれずにまた背を向けた

見失った夢(みらい)は机上のセオリー

目の前にある現実　虚しく揺れる

願っていた強さは歪な陰を生み

求めるたび二人を惑わせる

心からの笑顔を取り戻すために今

絡みついた殻を壊す　あの日の絆で

ただ君を守りたい　ずっと胸に抱いて

ここまで来た　もう逃げはしない

今と向き合うために

行こう　君の元へ

Don't be afraid.　I am with you.　Come on！

この想いその胸に届いて

君が道に迷って　帰る場所失って

一人にならないよう　いつだってここにいるよ

変わらない想いとあたたかい仲間が

魔法のように二人を包み込む

止まっていた時計(じかん)を取り戻すために今

すれ違った日々を越える　あの日の絆で

誓い合った約束(うんめい)君と胸に抱いて

全て込め撃ち抜くストライク

何も恐れはしない

行こう　君と共に

あの日見た夢(みらい)へ　君と

English:

Always keeping the promised fate you and I shared close to my heart,

I’ve made it this far! I won’t run away anymore!

So that I can face this moment,

I’ll proceed onward with you!

In the season we spent together during our younger days,

We always spoke of our dreams for the future, laughing together.

But the time we spent apart took it all away so mercilessly –

Even your smile from back then!

Clear memories, and furtive glances

Interweave— driving us further apart…

Right now, in order to take back that lost time,

I’ll overcome those days where we missed one another — 

wielding the bonds of our past!

Always keeping the promised fate you and I shared close to my heart,

I’ll put everything in one strike, breaking on through!

I won’t fear a thing — I’ll proceed onward with you!

I knew there are feelings I wanted to tell you,

But failing to be honest with myself, I turned away…

My dream for the future that I lost sight of is only a theory,

While the reality before my very eyes wavers unreliably…

The strength we’d been wishing gives birth to twisted shadows —

The more we pursue it, the more it leads us astray…

Right now, in order to take back that heartfelt smile,

I’ll break this shell that has coiled around me — wielding the bonds of our past!

Always keeping my desire to protect you close to my heart,

I’ve made it this far! I won’t run away anymore!

So that I can face this moment,

I’ll proceed to where you are!

Don’t be afraid. I am with you. Come on!

I hope these feelings will reach your heart!

If you were to ever lose your way… if you were to ever lose a place to call home…

So that I can be sure you’re never alone, I’ll always be right here!

Feelings that never change, and kind friends,

Envelop us like magic!

Right now, in order to take back that lost time,

I’ll overcome those days where we missed one another — 

wielding the bonds of our past!

Always keeping the promised fate you and I shared close to my heart,

I’ll put everything in one strike, breaking on through!

I won’t fear a thing — I’ll proceed onward with you,

Seeking those dreams of the future we saw that day… along with you!
