Lyrics

Game Size

Japanese

忘れかけたことを なつかしく受けとめる
サビついた心のカギを開けて

まぶしすぎる道も 過ぎた日々も未来も
2人出会った道で 今夜結ばれる

夢の先の道は 誰にもけがさせないから
風の誘う声に 耳を澄ます

誰のせいでもなく 光の季節に恋して
太陽がてらすように 愛がつつむ

夢の先に歩いて行こう

Romaji

wasurekaketa koto wo natsukashiku uketomeru
sabi tsuita kokoro no kagi wo akete

mabushisugiru michi mo sugita hibi mo mirai mo
futari deatta michi de konya musubareru

yume no saki no michi wa dare ni mo kegasa senai kara
kaze no sasou koe ni mimi wo sumasu

dare no sei de mo naku hikari no kisetsu no koishite
taiyou ga terasu you ni ai ga tsutsumu

yume no saki ni aruite iko

English

Being sentimental over the forgotten things
Opening the key to my rusty heart
 
The road, even the passing days, and also the future are way too bright
Becoming closer tonight are two people who met each other along the way
 
Because I won't let anyone hurt the way towards my dreams
Listen carefully to the inviting voice of the wind
 
The season of light's love is neither anybody's fault
To be engulfed in love is like the radiant sun
 
Let's take a walk towards our dreams

Long Version

Japanese


ほほえみを たやさぬ 強さのウラガワで
こわれそうな あなたの心の色

気付かない明日の悲しみを嘆くより
星空にヒトミをとき放して

夢の中の景色 かすんで行く思い出に
さよなら言えるとき 光灯る


忘れかけていたことを なつかしく受けとめる
サビついた心のカギを開けて

まぶしすぎる道も 過ぎた日々も未来も
2人出会った道で 今夜(いま)結ばれる

♯夢の先の道は 誰にもけがせないから
♯風の誘う声に 耳を澄ます

♯誰のせいでもなく 光の季節に恋して
♯太陽がてらすように 愛がつつむ

♯夢の先へ歩いて行こう

♯repeat

    • As in the Asian English release of pop'n music, SANAE♥chan's name was changed to JACQUI.

  • The original version of 光の季節 is not included in the pop'n music SUPER BEST BOX collection, despite being a KONAMI original and still in the arcades. The Sana version is, however.

Music Comment

A sweet song with a bit of ennui.

Song Production Information

This song has a stylish R&B-styled melody and vocals, but as the title suggests, the gentle melody, which makes you think of the spring sunlight, is impressive. I love this song.
ANNA is a mysterious and talented singer, who I don't really know very well.

Character Information

She bought the guitar that she always wanted with the money saved working part-time at a general store. Currently, she's making songs little by little, but wants to practice and improve more.

● Likes: Her guitar, Shiro! ○ Dislikes: She doesn't like smokers.
