あの笑顔を見せて僕の大好きな
時を止めてしまう魔法みたいに
風が流れている絶え間なく
遠く離れた人たちの
想いを誰かに
伝えようとしてるんだ

その笑顔はどんな哀しみにも

決して負けたりはしないから
君の大切な人にも風に乗って
きっと届いてる

自信なくさないで少し戻るだけ
君をなくさないで
きっとダイジョウブ

時は流れている絶え間なく
出会ってきたことすべてを
思い出に置き換えて
今を生きるために

明日へつながるあの広い空へ
高く高く心解き放つんだ
忘れないで君のその笑顔は
いつだってみんなを
幸せにしている

人生はこうして
続いてゆくんだろう
間違っても何度つまずいても
でも小さなその物語に
答えはひとつじゃないんだ

その笑顔はどんな哀しみにも
決して負けたりはしないから
君の大切な人にも風に乗って
きっと届いてる
明日へつながるあの広い空へ
高く高く心解き放つんだ
忘れないで君のその笑顔は

いつだってみんなを
幸せにしている
