Akutagawa Jirou - DayDream

DayDream

I still remember
those days I rushed through without caring
about my muddy shoes

I thought that even dreamlike dreams
would surely walk to a place I could reach with my hands
as the time goes by

As the changing season went past in the blink of an eye,
I drew a map for the future
It doesn't know where I am now
but it's okay

If I can hear your voice calling me
even at times I want to run away
as I hold your hand tightly, I can always get back up
Even if the form of my dream is different from the past, it won't change
I want to always walk
with a heart that remains honest

The setting sun dyes this familiar city with red
eventually disappearing
While watching the scenery we saw through the window
let's go home

Just with you being always by my side
when today turns into tomorrow
makes me think I can have fun in the distant future as well
So you can always keep on smiling
no matter what difficulties lies ahead
we can change, as long as we're together, for sure

I was lost in the darkness alone
but you saved me from there
"Thank you" is definitely not enough
so please let me be by your side

If I can hear your voice calling me
even at times I want to run away
as I hold your hand tightly, I can always get back up
Even if the form of my dream is different from the past, it won't change
I want to always walk
with a heart that remains honest
I keep chasing that endless daydream
