Japanese

あなたがもし旅立つ
その日が いつか来たら 
そこからふたりで始めよう

目指してたゴールに届きそうな時
本当はまだ遠いこと気付いたの? 
一体どこまで行けばいいのか 
終わりのない日々をどうするの?

ずっと飛び続けて 疲れたなら 
羽根休めていいから 
私はここにいるよ

あなたがもし旅立つ 
その日が いつか来たら 
そこからふたりで始めよう

一筋の光を信じてみるの? 
それとも暗闇に怯えるの?

ずっと飛び続けた翼がもう 
はばたけずに いるなら 
私があたためるよ

あなたのこと必要と
している人はきっと 
必ずひとりはいるから 
あなたが必要とする 
人ならいつもきっと 
隣で笑っているから

ずっと飛び続けて 疲れたなら
羽根休めていいから 
私はここにいるよ

いつかは皆旅立つ 
その日がきっと来るね 
全てを捨ててもいい程 
これから始まって行く 
ふたりの物語は 
不安と希望に満ちてる

Aanata ga moshi tabidatsu

Hitosuji no hikari wo shinjite miru no?

Itsuka wa mina tabidatsu

subete wo sutetemo ii hodo
kore kara hajimatte yuku
futari no monogatari wa
fuan to kibou ni michiteru

English

If you were to set out on a journey
When that day comes
Let's begin there together

Those times when it seems like you're about to reach the goal you aimed for
Have you noticed that it's still far away?
Exactly how far are we supposed to go
And what should we do with these endless days?

If you're tired from flying so long
It's alright to rest your wings
I'll be right here

If you were to set out on a journey
When that day comes
Let's begin there together

Do you want to try believing in a single beam of light?
Or would you prefer to quiver in darkness?

If your wings which have flown so long
Can no longer flap
I will warm them for you

There is definitely
One person who
Needs you
And that person who needs you
Would definitely always
Be smiling by your side

If you're tired from flying so long
It's alright to rest your wings
I'll be right here
