Japanese (Kanji / Kana)

いつになく真面目な
君の話に
今思えば 照れだよね
笑い合ってた

『理想とか憧れとか
手を伸ばしても
届かないね わかってるけど
今つかみたい』

そう言ってた あの日の君が
今日はいなくて
大丈夫って言うけど
誰より わかってるから…

泣きたいだけ泣いていい
一つ一つ落ちる涙が
夢へと続く足跡
きっと未来が見えるから

本当は泣き虫で
弱いところもある
いつも そう 隠してるのは
優しいから

もし 君が下を向くなら
勇気をあげる
我慢なんてしなくていい
誰にも 言わないから…

泣きたいけど 泣いていい?
一つ一つ落ちる涙が
夢へと続く足跡?
今は そう信じてみてよ

踏み出した 道で転んでも
そばで抱き起こすから
君にだけ 聞こえる声で
こう言ってあげたいんだ

泣きたいだけ泣いていい
一つ一つ落ちる涙が
夢へと続く足跡
いつも 信じてるよ

泣きたいけど 泣いていい?
一つ一つ落ちる涙が
夢へと続く足跡?
今は そう信じてみてよ

ほらね
未来は輝いてる

Translation

The things you said
While you were being unusually serious
"Thinking of it now", we laughed together,
"Wasn't it embarrassing?"

"Stuff like ideals and aspirations
Even if you reach out for them,
They can't be reached, right? I know that, but
I want to reach them now"

The you who said that that day
Is gone now
You say that's okay, but
I know you better than anyone, so…

When you just want to cry, it's okay to cry
One by one as the teardrops fall
They are footprints that lead to dreams
Because surely the future is in sight

You're really a crybaby
You have your weak points too
Always hiding it like so
Is really kind

If you're ever hanging your head
I'll give you courage
Because you don't have to suffer through it
I won't tell anyone, so…

I want to cry, but is it okay to cry?
One by one as the teardrops fall
Are they footprints that lead to dreams?
Try to believe that now

Even if you stumble and fall on the road you've set out on
I'll be there to pick you up, so
I want to say this to you
In a voice only you can hear

When you want to cry, it's okay to cry
One by one as the teardrops fall
They are footprints that lead to dreams
I always believe that

Is it okay to cry when you want to cry?
One by one as the teardrops fall
Are they footprints that lead to dreams?
Try to believe that now

Look
The future is shining
