Romaji Lyrics:
nakushita mono to
atsumeta mono no hazama ni
anata no egao ochite ita no
todokisou de todokanai
tonde ikeru wake ja nai shi
warawasete agetai dake na no ni
yaku tatazu mukou no tsubasa
nan no tame ni aru no darou
anata no soba de warau yo
watashi ni dekiru koto
koko ni iru dake de mo ii no ka na
donna kao shite mo
yogiru no ano kasuka na kioku
sora no kanata wo omou yo
kizutsuketa no wa
watashi no hou datta no kamo
katte na fuan mote amashite
hourinageru kuse ni ne
itsu no ma ni ka waraenakute
chippoke na hibi no naka de tatamu
wasuregachi nako no tsubasa
nan no tame ni aru no darou
anata no soba de warau yo
umaku dekinakute mo
tsukuri banashii demo ii no ima wa
koe wo kiiteitai
oshiete ano itsuka no tsudzuki
sekai no hate wa doko na no
minamo ni utsuru shiroi kumo
itsuka todoku to omotte ta no ni
tsukutte mitara mou atokata mo nai
hitoribotchi no sora
anata no soba de warau yo
watashi ni dekiru koto
atatameru dake de mo ii no ka na?
semete tsutsumitai
kidzuku no sono tame no tsubasa to
ima koso watashi warau yo
kumo no kakera wo ageru yo
English lyrics;
Into the crack between lost things
And gathered things
Your smile fell
I seem to reach it, yet I don’t
It’s not like I can fly
I just want to make you smile
Yet what do my useless wings
Exist for?
I’ll smile by your side
That’s what I can do
Is it okay if I’m just here?
No matter what face I make
That faint memory will flit across my mind
And I’ll think of the yonder of the sky
The one who I hurt
Just might have been me
Despite that I didn’t know what to do with my selfish anxiety
And tossed it away
Before I know it, I’m unable to smile
And I close up within the tiny days
What do my wings that I tend to forget about
Exist for?
I’ll smile by your side
Even if I can’t do it well
It’s okay if it’s fictional, for now
I want to hear your voice
Tell me more about what you said another day
Where is the end of the world?
White clouds are reflected on the water’s surface
Even though I thought I’d reach them someday
If I try scooping them up, there’s no longer any trace of them
In the sky where I’m all alone
I’ll smile by your side
That’s what I can do
Is it okay if I just warm you up?
I want to envelop you at least
I’ll realize my wings are for that
Indeed now I’ll smile
I’ll give you pieces of clouds
Kanji lyrics;
無くしたものと
集めたものの狭間に
あなたの笑顔 落ちていたの
届きそうで届かない
とんでいけるわけじゃないし
笑わせてあげたいだけなのに
役立たずのこの翼
なんのためにあるのだろう
あなたのそばで笑うよ
わたしにできること
ここにいるだけでもいいのかな？
どんな顔しても
よぎるの あのかすかな記憶
空のかなたを想うよ
傷つけたのは
わたしのほうだったのかも
勝手な不安 持て余して
放り投げるくせにね
いつのまにか笑えなくて
ちっぽけな日々のなかでたたむ
忘れがちなこの翼
なんのためにあるのだろう
あなたのそばで笑うよ
うまくできなくても
作り話でもいいの今は
声を聴いていたい
教えてあのいつかの続き
世界の果てはどこなの
水面に映る白い雲
いつか届くと思ってたのに
すくってみたら もう あとかたもない
ひとりぼっちの空
あなたのそばで笑うよ
わたしにできること
あたためるだけでもいいのかな
せめてつつみたい
気付くの そのための翼と
今こそわたし 笑うよ
雲の欠片をあげるよ
