Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Breathing living oxygen
Skipping over pools
It makes me feel alive
Now, where is this going?
分かれ道
Do I keep on going?
風に揺れる
In one symphony
So gentle and swaying
包み込む
Stepping into the unknown
Gripping firm on your words
One day I′ll see
When I break free
I'll be
Stepping into the unknown
Gripping firm on your words today
I′ve been feeling so lonely
But you hold me so closely
On and on
Rainbows in the sky
約束 You'll be alright
Diamonds glimmering bright
It makes me feel alive
Now where is this going?
目的は？
Do I keep on going?
Which way do I go?
息を合わせ
In one symphony
So gentle and swaying
走り出す
Stepping into the unknown
Gripping firm on your words
One day I'll see
When I break free
I′ll be
Stepping into the unknown
Gripping firm on your words today
I′ve been feeling so lonely
But you hold me so closely
On and on
僕の Location
分かるかな？
Do I keep on going?
Which way do I go?
近さ遠さ
Don't matter to us
And nothing can stop me
From getting to you
Stepping into the unknown
Gripping firm on your words
One day I′ll see
When I break free
I'll be
Stepping into the unknown
Gripping firm on your words today
I′ve been feeling so lonely
But you hold me closely
On and on
