Lyrics

Kaze wo matotte → tori wa susumu → haruka kanata e――

Fukai ao wa → umi ni tokete → madoromi yureru――

Kusaki wa moe → utai nagara → inochi wa meguru――
Miokuru hi wa → yoru wo koete → yasashiku hohoemu――

Me wo tojireba... itsu no hi ni mo... iro asenai... keshiki ga aru...
Sono subete ni... kimi ga ita koto wo... boku wa... 【wasure】nai yo――

Kyou mo yuuhi wa → haha no you ni → chihei wo dakishime――
Machikado ni wa → kodomotachi no → mujaki na kage ga nobiru――

Kimi no inai... sekai de sae... tada itoshiku... nakitaku naru...
Sore mo subete... kimi ga ita kara sa... boku wa keshite... 【wasure】nai yo――

Naze... bokura wa... taisetsu na mono... 【ushinatte】 kara kizuku no ka?
Nidoto... modosenu kagayaki ni... hibi no mabayusa ni...

Soredemo... moshimo... kanau nara... kimi to... mou ichido――
Borne aloft by gentle winds, oh the bird journeys on, as yonder horizon gleams.

The deep blue of the sky, now it yields to the sea, as waves sway us into dreams.
The buds burst into bloom, and they sing all the while, the wheel of life turns anew.
The light that guards us guides us through darkest of night, Its smile bright as sun blazes through.

If you'd just close your eyes, you'd see that there are sights,
That though day follows night, still they don't fade from view.
And in most every one, you're there, and that is why for me,
Those days will stay, they'll be forever true.

Today, just like every other, the warm evening sun, she cradles the land like Mother.
The shadows of the children, they dance down the street,
And laughing join hands with one another.

And here in this world, this world without you,
Though I still love it all, I just can't help but cry.
You know that all of this, it's all because you came to me,
Those days will stay, they'll last until the end of time.

Why do all of the things we love most of all,
Shine most for us when they can't answer our call?
There's a sparkle that lit all those dazzling days that'll never come back to me.

If it were only possible, if it could come true... If I could have just one last day with you…
