1.I’m caught unaware
2.By my worn-out expression reflected in the train window.
3.As if averting my gaze,
4.I looked downward listlessly.5.
6.But even if we can’t walk a path that was decided for us,
7.As long as we can find beauty in the flowers blooming at the side of the road,
8.That’s enough.9.
10.More than any starry sky,
11.More than any memory,
12.Give me a shining moment!
13.Yes, it’s inside my heart,
14.Yes, as long as I never forget,
15.Tomorrow will surely be bright!16.
17.Without deciding a destination,
18.I set out on a tiny journey.
19.The cities and people I saw for the first time
20.Were much more welcoming than I’d expected.21.
22.Following another’s example isn’t what life is about.
23.As long as we have the courage to never overlook someone in trouble,
24.That’s enough.25.
26.There’s no way it’s possible,
27.There’s no way it could go right,
28.But there’s a glittering possibility there!
29.Yes, the flower I’d picked,
30.Yes, was myself all along,
31.Making tomorrow into something frightening.32.
33.The easier something is,
34.The more it tends to hide.
35.But never give up searching for it!
36.I feel that you can surely find it someday.
37.You can believe in your own honest heart!38.
39.More than any starry sky,
40.More than any memory,
41.Give me a shining moment!
42.Yes, it’s inside my heart,
43.Yes, as long as I never forget,
44.I won’t be afraid anymore!
45.Tomorrow will surely be bright!
