遠く遠く - 2012 Remaster

遠く遠く離れていても
僕のことがわかるように
力いっぱい 輝ける日を
この街で迎えたい

外苑の桜は咲き乱れ
この頃になるといつでも
新幹線のホームに舞った
見えない花吹雪思い出す

まるで七五三の時のように
ぎこちないスーツ姿も
今ではわりと似合うんだ
ネクタイも上手く選べる

同窓会の案内状
欠席に丸をつけた
「元気かどうかしんぱいです」と
手紙をくれるみんなに

遠く遠く離れていても
僕のことがわかるように
力いっぱい 輝ける日を
この街で迎えたい

いつでも帰ってくればいいと
真夜中の公衆電話で
言われたとき笑顔になって
今までやってこれたよ

どんなに高いタワーからも
見えない僕のふるさと
失くしちゃだめなことを
いつでも胸に抱きしめているから

遠く遠く離れた街で
元気に暮らせているんだ
大事なのは"変わってくこと"
"変わらずにいること"

同窓会の案内状
欠席に丸をつけた
だれよりも今はみんなの顔
見たい気持ちでいるけど

遠く遠く 離れていても
僕のことがわかるように
力いっぱい 輝ける日を
この街で迎えたい
僕の夢をかなえる場所は
この街と決めたから

So Far Apart - 2012 Remaster

Though we are far apart
So you will know how I am
I want to shine as brightly as I can
And greet that day in this city

The cherry blossoms bloom in the outer garden
And at this time of year
I always remember the cherry blossoms that swirled
On the platform of the Shinkansen bullet train

Just like when I was dressed up for the Shichi-Go-San festival
I was awkward in my suit
But now I look quite good in it
And I can even tie a tie properly

The high school reunion invitation
I circled "Absent"
To everyone who wrote "I'm worried about you."
Thank you for your concern

Though we are far apart
So you will know how I am
I want to shine as brightly as I can
And greet that day in this city

You said I could always go back home
Over the midnight public phone
I smiled when you said that
And I've been doing well ever since

Even from the tallest tower
I can't see my hometown
But I always keep close to my heart
The things I must never lose

In this place far, far away
I'm doing just fine
What's important is "to change"
And "to stay the same"

The high school reunion invitation
I circled "Absent"
More than anyone
I want to see your face now

Though we're far apart
So you will know how I am
I want to shine as brightly as I can
And greet that day in this city
I've decided to make my dreams come true here
In this city
