Lyrics
English
You're looking for the light Shining oh so bright Guiding you to fight your way to what you want for your own Nothing is easy You've got to be strong Gotta stand up for what you believe A true heart Listening to others words Sometimes interfere what's in your thoughts Blocking out what flows out from your mind Blinding what you feel deep inside of your heart Learning to turn down what you don't believe Picking the words that you really do need Helps you to find all the answers that you are looking for You're looking for the light Shining oh so bright Guiding you to fight your way to what you want for your own Nothing is easy You've gotta be strong Gotta stand up for what you believe A true heart Don't let them take away What's in you heart don't play By their own rules make it on your own You're looking for the light Guiding you to fight your way to what you want for your own Nothing is easy You've gotta be strong Gotta stand up for what you believe A true heart Shining oh so bright Guiding you to fight your way to what you want for your own Nothing is easy You've got to be strong Gotta stand up for what you believe A true heart
Japanese translation
あなたは光を求めて あの輝く光を 自分の欲するものを勝ち取る道標 簡単なことはないが 強くなくてはいけない、 自分が信じるもののために立ち上がる その純粋な心 他者の言葉を聞くと たまに自分の考えが妨げられる。 その流出する思いが遮断され、 心の奥底の感情がはっきりせぬまま。 自分が信じないものに対して断ることを学び 必要な言葉だけを選択すると 自分が探していた答えを見つける手助けをしてくれる。 あなたは光を求めて あの輝く光を 自分の欲するものを勝ち取る道標 簡単なことはないが 強くなくてはいけない 自分が信じるもののために立ち上がる その純粋な心 奪われてはいけない、 自分の心の中の想いを、 彼等のルールではなく自分のルールを築き上げ。 あなたは光を求めて それは自分の欲するものを勝ち取る道標 簡単なことはないが 強くなくてはいけない 自分が信じるもののために立ち上がる その純粋な心 あの輝く光は 自分の欲するものを勝ち取る道標 簡単なことはないが 強くなくてはいけない 自分が信じるもののために立ち上がる その純粋な心 |
