Lyrics Naomi Kaitani - Tooi Kono Machi de

Tooi Kono Machi de

daisuki datta ano uta
furui TEEPU no naka
chiisana KIZU iro aseta TAITORU
nijinda yoake
I loved that song
on the old tape
Little scratches, a faded title...
A blurry dawn.

soshite mata kyou ga kuru
natsu no kaze o tsurete
narete yuku hibi no katasumi de
futo kodoku ni deau
And so, the day repeats itself [1]
accompanied by a summer breeze
In a corner of the familiar day-by-day routine
I suddenly meet with loneliness

jitensha de doko made mo
kaze o keru hayasa wasurenai
I'll never forget
how fast I could kick the wind
on my bike,
going however far I wanted.

lalalala utaou sora o miagete
lalalala It's my life aruite yukou
watashi no chikara de susumu hate shinai kono michi o
la la la la I'll sing my song,
with my face toward the sky.
la la la la It's my life
I'll walk on
Using my own strength
to go forward along this endless road.

ikutsumo no kousaten itsumo mayou kedo
nagasare tari oikosare tari shite
ima o ikiteru
With so many crossroads,
I'm always lost,
but though sometimes I wander and sometimes I fall off the path
I'm living the present

butsu karu koto mitomeru koto
otona ni natte mo wasurenai
Clashing with others,
accepting others...
Even when I grow up
I'll never forget.

lalalala utaou sora o miagete
lalalala It's my life aruite yukou
watashi dake no mono dakara jishin matte ii yo ne
la la la la I'll sing my song,
with my face toward the sky.
la la la la It's my life
I'll walk on
It's something that's mine alone,
so I guess I can have some confidence in myself

umareta machi de yumemite kita
kujikeru tabi ni omoidasu
ano uta no you ni ima dekiru koto wa
sukoshi demo mae ni fumi dasu koto
In the town we were born in, we dreamed
Everytime I'm crushed, I remember
that just like that song, there's something I can do right now:
step forward, even if just a little.

lalalala utaou sora o miagete
lalalala It's my life aruite yukou
lalalala utaou sora o miagete
lalalala It's my life aruite yukou
watashi no chikara de susumu hate shinai kono michi o
la la la la I'll sing my song,
with my face toward the sky.
la la la la It's my life
I'll walk on

lalalala utaou sora o miagete
lalalala It's my life aruite yukou
watashi no chikara de susumu hate shinai kono michi o
