The lyrics of "Kaze wo atsumete" by Happy End describe the desire to experience the freedom and beauty of the sky and the wind. The song is about taking a stroll through the outskirts of town, where one catches a glimpse of a train disappearing into the horizon, crossing the sea. The singer is captivated by the sight and is inspired to gather the wind and soar through the endless blue. The first verse describes a narrow street by the town, where the singer takes a walk and watches a train crossing the sea in the distance. The second verse talks about passing through a theater district during twilight hours and catching sight of a bird flying high above the buildings. The third verse describes a quiet morning at a café, where one watches the light shining through a broken glass roof and sees the ruins of an old tower on the street. All three verses suggest the desire for something more than the mundane daily routine of life and a longing for freedom and adventure.
