I didn’t believe in fate
Wherever I was
I didn’t have a place I belonged
So I closed myself up
That’s why I act out a role
A stronger me
Who doesn’t cry
Whenever my heart rings its emergency bell
You appear
I remember you squeezing my hand
And always saying this…
When the going gets tough, gently
Reach your hand out towards tomorrow
I’ll give you the strength to start walking again
Since when
Have I been able to feel
This kindhearted? Yes,
It was from the day I first met you
There were times when I was twisted around the finger
Of the shadow of someone I couldn’t see
In all honesty I was always jealous of that girl
Who could depend on people straightforwardly
Whenever my heart rings its emergency bell
You appear
And flash a kind smile for me, and only me
That’s why now
Even boring days
Start to shine
Because I can share moments with you
I was on the verge of giving up
Thinking, I don’t care
Hey, am I smiling
Properly now?
I’ve repeated farewells countless times
Each time my ability to trust was taken away, but
It’s not tragic to think
That I want to trust again, right?
When the going gets tough, gently
Reach your hand out towards tomorrow
I’ll give you the strength to start walking again
Since when
Have I been able to feel
This kindhearted? Yes,
It was from the day I first met you
