I learn more about myself Lalan lalan... I find you Stars appear in the sky that’s stained in blue We walked so slow we almost stopped (holding hands) Everything about that day made me feel good If there is a God, I want to thank Him (thank you very much) One feeling can surely open a new door
JAPANESE 歌詞 だらだら過ごしたらあっというま 昼過ぎ スケジュールはガラ空き 今日は国民の祝日 誰かに出しぬかれ 遅れをとるのはやばいと 心配ばかりしてたら 体がおかしくなった 何も考えずに 服を着がえて 事前の電話もせず 君んちに寄って(怒らないで) 遠くの街でも どこでもいいから まるで運まかせて 出かけてみるよ(いいじゃないか) 驚いた顔を見たとたん すばらしい日になる気がした ぶつかるほど混みあう ショッピングモールも良しとしょう 酷い事件をなくす力は 僕にないけど 死ぬより生きる方が いいもんだと気づいてる 並んでる車に 信号待ちのワゴン 窓ガラス越しに 家族が笑う(なんか歌ってる) わが国の民の 十人十色のライフ 歯をくいしばって 幸せを目指す(みんな頑張る) 愛しい景色は意外にも 自分のまわりにころがってる ラランララン… ボクをまた知る ラランララン… キミを見つける 蒼く染まりゆく 空に星が出て 止まりそうになる程 ゆっくり歩いた(手をつないで) その日の全てが 気分よかったんだよ 神様がいるなら 感謝したいよ(どうもありがとう) 気持ちひとつで 新しい扉が開けるんだろな
