(Time goes by)(Time goes by)
Koe kakeyou to sono tonari ni mishiranu darekaI started to call out, but then I saw a stranger standing right there by your side
Futo sorashita me ni utsuru sora wa itsumo to onajiAs I quickly looked away, the sky reflecting in my eyes was the same as always
Kitto koushite hito wa chotto zutsuI’m sure this is how we all, bit by bit,
Sugita kisetsu ni kioku wo kakusuhide away our memories within the seasons that have passed
Itsuka koboreta namida atsumatteUntil the tears that once spilled finally gather together
Hi wo abite kagayaku madeand begin to glisten beneath the light of the sun
Sou dakara Baby kanashimanai deSo Baby, please don’t let yourself be sad,
Kangaete mo wakannai toki mo aru ttebecause there are times when you just won’t find the answers no matter how hard you think.
Sanzan demo mae ni tsuzuku michi no dokoka niEven when things are a mess, somewhere on the path that stretches ahead
Nozomi wa aru karathere’s still hope to be found.

Mata kakaeta fuan kore ijou kaishou dekizuI can’t shake this anxiety I’m carrying any longer,
Dareka no te nigitte mienai ashita e tsunagou to doryoku shiteso I’ll try to hold someone’s hand and reach for a tomorrow I can’t yet see.
Datte koushite hito wa nando demoBecause I know that people have the strength
Yami ni tachimukau tsuyosa aru hazuto face the darkness, no matter how many times it takes.
Ataerarete erabun ja nakuteIt’s not about choosing from what you’ve been given,
Sono ashi de fumidashiteit’s about stepping forward on your own two feet.
Sou dakara Baby kanashimanai deSo Baby, please don’t give in to the sadness,
Kangaete mo wakannai toki mo aru ttethere’ll be moments when you just won’t understand.
