I turn corners, cross bridges, and weave through shrines;
When I climb that hill and look over my shoulder, I can see the sea in the distance.
I’ve walked along with the smell of flowers in spring, the cries voices of cicadas in summer,
The maples in autumn, and the stars in winter…
… you were always with me along this nameless road.
Someone once sung that, “There’s meaning in every goodbye”,
But I still don’t know for sure:
Ahh, from here on out, I’ll be trying to find that out.
It’s said that you can go anywhere, any distance, if you believe;
It’s said that a world you’ve never seen before lies ahead;
Looking back 10 years… 20 years from now, I wonder how I’ll feel looking back on today.
A single shadow, stretched out thin, carries the smell of new leaves that shine in the wind.
Something you once said… “You don’t have to compare yourself to anyone else,”;
I’ll hold on to it tightly as I walk on –
Ahh, the time of beginning is ripe.
Someone once sung that, “There’s meaning in every goodbye”,
But I still don’t know for sure:
Ahh, from here on out, I’ll be trying to find that out.
I read somewhere that, “Love isn’t just being by someone’s side”,
But I still don’t know for sure:
Ahh, from here on out, I’ll be trying to find that out.
