We held hands up to the ticket check, the usual noisiness, a new wind
+
Even though I cheerfully saw you off, I wasn't able to smile well as I watched after you
+
It seemed like the season you became an adult
+
Was not filled with sad songs
+
There was something I wanted to convey to you in the end
+
I searched for the words to replace "farewell"
+
I had thought the duty to lead you by the hand was my mission
+
But I understand now; the days behind us
+
When you become an adult
+
It piles on me and changes me too
+
If there's a song like that there
+
The two of us can be connected, always, at any time
+
Abruptly, suddenly, the echoing bell chimed
+
I was impatient, let my hand go and you were separated from me
+
In a daze I called for you to stop and embraced you
+
My voice calling "where did you go?" protects you
+
From the day you appeared before me
+
Everything seemed different:
+
The morning, the light, tears, a singing voice
+
You brought me radiance
+
I'll put my uncontrollable feelings in my voice
+
To send to your town, far away
+
If there could be a song like that
+
We could be connected even if we go away somewhere
+
