風が頬を擦り抜けてゆく
濡れた髪 爪先躍らせる
君の眩しすぎる笑顔が
褪せた景色に色彩与えた

移りゆく 季節の中で
変わらないものが あるなら・・・

降り注ぐ 輝きは
限りなく 君へと 届く
夢が照らす あの場所へ
空に舞う 瞬きが
終わらない 明日へ運ぶ
僕の答えになるから

きみの握り締めた その手が
触れる僕に 体温を伝えた

巡り来る 軌跡の抱かれ
時は刻むのを 止めない

駆け出した この思いは
果てしなく 君へと続く
愛が目指す あの場所へ
雨音の 囁きが
途切れない 未来へ響く
君の答えになるから

振り絞る この声が
胸の奥 涙の様に
そっと 君を包んで

降り注ぐ 輝きは
限りなく 君へと届く
夢が照らす あの場所へ
沈まない 太陽は
永遠に ふたり導く
僕が答えになるから

Kaze ga hoho wo surinukete yuku
Nureta kami tsumasaki odoraseru
Kimi no mabushisugiru egao ga
Aseta keshiki ni iro ataeta

Utsuri yuku kisetsu no naka de
Kawaranai mono ga aru nara

Furisosogu kagayaki wa
Kagiri naku kimi he to todoku
Yume ga terasu ano basho he
Sora ni mau matataki ga
Owaranai ashita he hakobu
Boku no kotae ni naru kara

Kimi no nigirishimeta sono te ga
Fureru boku ni netsu wo tsutaeta

Meguri kuru kiseki ni dakare
Toki wa kizamu no wo yamenai

Kakedashita kono omoi wa
Hateshinaku kimi he to tsuzuku
Ai ga mezasu ano basho he
Amaoto no sasayaki ga
Togirenai mirai he hibiku
Kimi no kotae ni naru kara

Furishiboru kono koe ga
Mune no oku namida no you ni
Sotto kimi wo tsutsunde

Furisosogu kagayaki wa
Kagiri naku kimi he to todoku
Yume ga terasu ano basho he
Shizumanai taiyou wa
Eien ni futari michibiku
Boku ga kotae ni naru kara

The wind brushes past my cheeks
It makes my wet hair dance on end
Your blinding smile
 Gives colour to the faded scenery

In the changing of the seasons
If things do not change...

The radiance pouring down
 Reaches you without limits
To that place where dreams shine
The twinkling lights dancing in the sky
 Move endlessly toward tomorrow
Because that will be my answer

Those tightly grasped hands of yours
 Touch me and convey heat to my body

Embraced by the winding path
Time doesn't stop ticking away

These feelings dashing out
 Endlessly continuing towards you
To that place where love aims towards
The whispering sounds of rain
 Reverberate in to the future without end
Because that will be your answer.

This straining voice
 Is softly surrounding you
 like tears

The radiance pouring down
 Reaches you without limits
To that place where dreams shine
The sun that never sets
 Will lead us both to eternity
Because I will be the answer
