Those tears, that sweat, blurred together
In a unique beauty unlike anyone else’s
Please, give me a smile
You, out of breath, are
More wonderful than anyone
Like soda gone flat
Slightly weary, dissolved in mundane days,
Like a domestic duck spreading its wings
Dreaming of being a swan dancing in the sky
If you’re going to wander
Let’s savor it even more
Taking shortcuts all the time
Lacks flavor, doesn’t it?
Eating the roadside grass
Drinking the muddy water
But unable to reach
Again and again
Chasing the dusk
Run to the distant future
Your dirty shoes and footprints
Certainly lead to the future
Now you’re racing forward
You, out of breath, are
More wonderful than anyone
The beginning of a story
Always suddenly tears through the silence
Bashful, forgetful, becoming adults
In the flickering flame inside our hearts
Without fussing over appearances
Let’s call it a day
Hoping to dream
Like a sunny spot
Swallowing hard
Enduring the shame
Still not ready to give up
Again and again
Chasing tomorrow
Until your voice runs hoarse
You were crying
Even though you knew it was futile
Keep resisting
You, blooming unguardedly, are
More wonderful than anyone
Today, as well
Those tears, that sweat, blurred together
In a unique beauty unlike anyone else’s
Please, give me a smile
You, out of breath, are
More wonderful than anyone
Run to the distant future
Your dirty shoes and footprints
Certainly lead to the future
Now you’re racing forward
You, out of breath, are
More wonderful than anyone
