1.My phone rang from over on my desk.
2.You said, “Let’s go somewhere!”
3.I didn’t really feel like hanging out,
4.But I was happy you asked.5.
6.I wasn’t able to beat my record.
7.I was so close, but made a mistake.
8.No matter how much I tried day after day, something felt incomplete.9.
10.I reached my hand toward a goal atop a high wall—
11.Just a bit further… just a bit further until I can reach it!12.
13.Blue, blue sky…
14.The sky right before our eyes
15.Is so beautiful that I invite you along effortlessly!16.
17.Blue, blue sky…
18.I wanna get my hands on the red fruit floating there—
19.Let’s go forth, across our frontier!20.
21.I injured myself on an important day.
22.You ran extra to make up for what I couldn’t do.
23.I apologized and bought you a drink;
24.We stood side-by-side, drinking and laughing!25.
26.I wasn’t interested in love yet—
27.I was okay with having something missing.
28.I was always in a trance,
29.No chance to let my eyes wander!30.
31.Blue, blue sky…
32.That heart-racing blue
33.Turns the tears and sweat into fun times!34.
35.Blue, blue sky…
36.With this sky coated in our shared feelings,
37.I feel like I’m about to get sucked in!38.
39.All this winning, losing, ending in draws…
40.It’s no wonder I’m so up and down.
41.But I don’t want to make excuses,
42.So let’s always keep on competing!43.
44.Even if part of these days was stripped away,
45.No matter how many years may pass,
46.I bet we can keep going onward, further and further—
47.That’s just how I feel!48.
49.I like who I am right now—
50.I like who all of us are!
51.Just a bit further… just a bit further until we can reach it!52.
53.Blue, blue sky…
54.The sky right before our eyes
55.Is so beautiful that I invite you along effortlessly!56.
57.Blue, blue sky…
58.I wanna get my hands on the red fruit floating there—
59.I reached out for what I had longed for…
60.Let’s go forth, across our frontier!
