Translated Title:: Blink

1.Happiness isn’t something like the repeating cycle
2.Of nights of falling stars and brilliant mornings
3.It’s being able to hold an umbrella over a special someone as rain falls upon them4.
5.It’s okay if there’s no answer
6.To the question of what we’re living for
7.As long as you can protect the people you wish to see, and the things important to you8.
9.If I could sing out those precious feelings
10.Without trying too hard, or getting down on myself…11.

12.Happiness isn’t something like the repeating cycle
13.Of nights of falling stars and brilliant mornings
14.It’s being able to hold an umbrella over a special someone as rain falls upon them
15.It’s not something you can find, even you strain your eyes, not blinking once
16.So I want you to stay by my side17.
18.There are those who lived for their dreams
19.There are those who were right to have strayed from the path
20.There are those who threw everything away for someone else
21.There are those who lived for themselves22.
23.I couldn’t become any of them
24.But as long as there’s still someone who needs me today25.
26.Happiness isn’t something like the repeating cycle
27.Of nights of falling stars and brilliant mornings
28.It’s being able to hold an umbrella over a special someone as rain falls upon them
29.Though I’ve found weakness again, and it’s sent me reeling
30.I wonder if I can do that
31.In a place I found with my eyes closed32.
33.Happiness isn’t something like the repeating cycle
34.Of nights of falling stars and brilliant mornings
35.It’s being able to hold an umbrella over a special someone as rain falls upon them
36.And it’s how I was protected before I had even realized it
37.So I want you to always, always stay by my side38.
39.Whether my eyes are open or closed

Translated Title:: Blink

1.Happiness is not about alternating between shooting-star nights and bright, shiny mornings
2.It’s not something like that
3.It’s about being able to hold the umbrella over your loved one when the rain is falling on them4.
5.Why do we keep on living?
6.We don’t need an answer for that
7.If we can protect people we want to meet and the things that are necessary, even just a bit8.
9.Without trying to overreach or be humble
10.If I can just be who I am and sing about the love that I feel11.
12.Happiness is not about alternating between shooting-star nights and bright, shiny mornings
13.It’s not something like that
14.It’s about being able to hold the umbrella over your loved one when the rain is falling on them
15.Even if I try not to blink and keep on staring, I won’t be able to find something like this
16.So I want you to stay with me17.
18.Those who can live on dreams
19.Those who found answers on a different track
20.Those who live for others
21.Those who live a life of their own22.
23.I couldn’t become anyone
24.But if you need me today as well, that’s all I need25.
26.Happiness is not about alternating between shooting-star nights and bright, shiny mornings
27.It’s not something like that
28.It’s about being able to hold the umbrella over your loved one when the rain is falling on them
29.But I found another weakness of mine and I was confused
30.Am I able to do that? Even someone like me?
31.At the place I found by closing my eyes32.
33.Happiness is not about alternating between shooting-star nights and bright, shiny mornings
34.It’s not something like that.
35.It’s about being able to hold the umbrella over your loved one when the rain is falling on them
36.And one day, before I knew it, I’m being protected by you
37.I wish you could stay… With me forever38.
39.No matter if my eyes are open or closed

1.幸せとは　星が降る夜と眩しい朝が
2.繰り返すようなものじゃなく
3.大切な人に降りかかった雨に傘を差せる事だ4.
5.何の為に生きて行くのか
6.答えなんて無くていいよ
7.会いたい人と必要なものを少し守れたら8.
9.背伸びもへりくだりもせずに
10.僕のそのままで愛しい気持ちを歌えたなら11.
12.幸せとは　星が降る夜と眩しい朝が
13.繰り返すようなものじゃなく
14.大切な人に降りかかった雨に傘を差せる事だ
15.瞬きもせずに目を凝らしても見付かる類のものじゃない
16.だからそばにいて欲しいんだ17.
18.夢の為に生きられた人
19.逸れた道が正解だった人
20.誰かの為に費やした人
21.自分を生きた人22.
23.誰にもなれなかったけど
24.ただ今日も僕を必要だと思ってくれたら25.
26.幸せとは　星が降る夜と眩しい朝が
27.繰り返すようなものじゃなく
28.大切な人に降りかかった雨に傘を差せる事だ
29.また弱さ見付けて戸惑う僕に
30.でもそれが出来るだろうか
31.目を閉じて見付けた場所で32.
33.幸せとは　星が降る夜と眩しい朝が
34.繰り返すようなものじゃなく
35.大切な人に降りかかった雨に傘を差せる事だ
36.そしていつの間にか僕の方が守られてしまう事だ
37.いつもそばに　いつも君がいて欲しいんだ38.
39.目を開けても　目を閉じても
