After school, we used to take a detour
To the usual park, caffe lattes in our hands
Chatted about nothing with each other, visions of our future growing large
We talked about what we wanted to do
Our goals for the years to come, the sky was the limit
Every single page, oh, is too precious to throw away
I’ll treasure them forever
Sure enough, now we’re living inside our dream plans
We scribbled all over back in those days
I want to say thank you
“The present” is a gift from “the past”
Let’s keep making dream plans that in the future will look foolishly grand
Behind the school building I gathered the courage to say
“I’ve always loved you”
And then I was rejected immediately. Goodbye, my first love
Feeling troubled, being hurt
Reaching up high, but not high enough for my ideals
Tears flowing from my eyes fell and dampened my notebook
It’s my bittersweet treasure
Someday let’s check the answers to our dream plans
We scribbled all over back in those days
It’s okay if we got them wrong
“The present” is when we practice for “the future”
If you realize what happiness is then encircle it for getting it right
We have so many memories
Let’s put on some background music
And make believe that we are the main characters of a story
Sure enough, now we’re living inside our dream plans
We scribbled all over back in those days
I want to say thank you
“The present” is a gift from “the past”
Let’s keep making dream plans that in the future will look foolishly grand
Let’s look for a little happiness. Hey, it might be close to you
