Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

ふと 気がつけば 時は過ぎて
あてもなく ただ 一人さまよう
雲の切れ間に 光が射し
照らし出す日々 かざす手のひら

It's a way of life
前だけ向いて歩いた
灰色な日々から抜け出すために
ためらいも 疑いも
何もかも受け入れて

駆け抜けた道 立ち止まって
振り返る 昨日にまた
揺らぐ心をかばって

追いかけてゆく 追いかけてく
守りたい明日がある
歩いてく 今日を信じて

そしていつしか 時は巡り
また繰り返す 同じ毎日

It's a way of life
どんな未来を待ってる?
灰色な日々が残す残像に
ため息も 悲しみも
何もかも溶かしてく

こんなにもまだ 覚えている
あの日見た夢の続き
共に交わした約束

呼び続けても 呼び止めても
戻れない昨日になる
だから 今 この手のばして

よみがえる 幼き記憶を
辿っても 何処にも行けやしない
ありのまま 心のまま
伝えたい想いを今 叫ぶ
声を枯らして

駆け抜けた道 立ち止まって
届かない想いも ほら
いつか解り合えたらと

追いかけてゆく 追いかけてく
守りたい明日がある




歩いてく 今日もこうして
歩いてく 今日を信じて
