If I could use many colours
To draw out my feelings
I would have taken up a brush
And drawn a picture

If by lining up various words
I could choose the feelings I want
I would have taken up a pen
And written a letter

Uh, but I can’t do that
So I’ve sung this song
Uh, because I can’t do anything else
I turn the key and give it to you

On days when you cry
I held on to one courage and promised
To stay by you…

So you don’t need to cry anymore
Even though I can’t say it well

On days when you smile
I want to hold on to two gentlenesses and give praise
That we have understood each other

From now till forever…

If life is an ephemeral dream
Won’t it be just like a flower?
Even if its fate is to wilt away
Its transience itself is just so lovely

Something I lost, sometime someplace ago
Something I left behind that day, someplace
And then, something I left in your hands
Accompany me as I walk down this road

Just what are you thinking of now?
Just what can I do for you?

It’s so priceless because it has no shape
It’s so beautiful that it has turned cruel

Even as the rain falls, as the wind blows
Even on burning days and silent nights
Even if this is the end of the world
I want to show you the continuation of the dream

I’ll make a beautiful flower bloom
Then I’ll offer it to you
I’ll make a beautiful flower bloom
Then I’ll offer it to you

Just what are you thinking of now?
Just what can I do for you?

I’ll make a beautiful flower bloom
Then I’ll offer it to you
I’ll make a beautiful flower bloom
Then I’ll offer it to you

I’ll sing a song
I’ll sing it beside you
I’ll sing a song
I’ll sing it beside you

Listen closely, because I’ll continue screaming until it reaches you
I’ve always been here, here, here

Chased by time through semi-forced days
Is there anything at the end of it all?

Is my hurried way of living
Comical? Laugh at me

I want you to look me in the eye and call my name
I want you to hold my hand and nod to tell me it’s alright
Give me a push, because I don’t think I can walk on otherwise
If you’re lying, then at least keep telling me true lies until the end

Abandoning my body to the passing of time
Just what kind of place will I drift to?

Will this self, so full of contradictions
Be forgiven? Tell me

Somehow understand that that is not what I’m saying
Somehow realize that this is not what I want
Somehow release me, that’s not the place I want to go to
I’ve always been searching for just one word

I want you to look me in the eye and call my name
I want you to hold my hand and nod to tell me it’s alright
Give me a push, because I don’t think I can walk on otherwise
If you’re lying, then at least keep telling me true lies until the end

Somehow understand that that is not what I’m saying
Somehow realize that this is not what I want
Somehow release me, that’s not the place I want to go to
I’ve always been searching for just one word

put your hands up together!!
keep your heads up together!!
let me sing forever!!
Dala Dala Dala Dala……

These days, I can’t seem to grasp the mood
And can’t go on well

Whatever I do just backfires on me
And it keeps on repeating

It’s not because “that’s how things are”
It’s not because I’ve been careless
So don’t sacrifice happiness
And trade it for sadness

Let’s say that the you today
Is totally uncool or something
No matter how depressed or regretful you feel
The sun will rise again

Anyway, even when you’re like this
Or like that, I’ll still accept you
In the end, I love you no matter how you are

put your hands up together!!
keep your heads up together!!
let me sing forever!!
Dala Dala Dala Dala……

So this is the adult life
Which I used to dream about as a child

I live through days so different
From what I’ve dreamed and predicted

It’s not because “that’s how things are”
It’s not because I’ve been careless
Life is only lived once
Never forget that

If the you tomorrow can smile
And tell me that you’re happy
Just that and I’ll be able
To accomplish anything

There’s no basis in the words “It’ll be alright”
So don’t say that, just nod and watch
As we show you our courage

put your hands up together!!
keep your heads up together!!
let me sing forever!!
Dala Dala Dala Dala……

Let’s say that the you today
Is totally uncool or something
No matter how depressed or regretful you feel
The sun will rise again

Anyway, even when you’re like this
Or like that, I’ll still accept you
In the end, I love you no matter how you are

put your hands up together!!
keep your heads up together!!
let me sing forever!!
Dala Dala Dala Dala……

put your hands up together!!
keep your heads up together!!
let me sing forever!!
Dala Dala Dala Dala……

Today’s happy face, today’s sad face
Yesterday’s weak self, and tomorrow’s surely strong self
If it was you, who will you show them to? If it was me, who shall I show them to?

The thing known as time can on occasions be really cruel
But because of that cruelty, the present is created

People never stop wishing for that one moment of liberation
But when it finally comes, fear wins out

Not even noticing the flowers swaying by my feet as I passed by
I’ve become unable to face myself in the mirror

Today’s happy face, today’s sad face
Yesterday’s healed wounds and today’s deep reopened wounds
If it was you, who will you show them to? If it was me, who shall I show them to?

There’s a sanity and madness unique to me
If I can live without denying either one of them

Pointless things, overflowing things, and useless things
I’ll pick them without hesitating, yes, so that I can be myself

Because I’ve always measured happiness by my own standards

Today’s happy face, today’s sad face
Even if yesterday’s healed wounds should reopen today
If it was you, you can show them to someone. If it was me, I’ll show it to that person
