38th Single “Kibouteki Refrain” Type-T Coupling Song
Lyrics 👇
With a spiral of wind
A shivering dry leaf
Falls dancing from the branch
‘Cause it chose to be free
Whenever we’re side by side
We start to think of each other
What is kindness?
Purposely leaving behind the person I love
I walked awkwardly down the tree path
The two of us were just too young
When the train that awaits the spring
Arrives at that station
Yes, you will be leaving this town
With your bag filled with just dreams
And you’ll smile
All alone
The wind’s answer
Is the fate of leaving this deciduous tree
Without realizing what you’ve left behind
Goodbye
I will remain
Let’s meet here someday
A reunion beneath the blue sky
This is my little wish
You showed me the pamphlet
Of the design school you wanted to go to
Your eyes where shining
I couldn’t hold you back
Pushing aside my ego and loneliness
I encouraged you to go, for your sake
By the time I take off
This heavy coat
You won’t be here anymore
Only follow the map that you believe in
For you’ve found
A different road
It’s the wind’s fault
We don’t know what’s right and what’s wrong
But you go your way, and I’ll go mine
Let’s move forward in this way
If I’m just going to cling on
To the branch forever
I’d rather let go for the sake of love
This is a natural opportunity to do so
If you’re this silent
Even I will start to waver
Don’t hesitate
Stand firm in your resolve
The wind’s answer
Is the fate of leaving this deciduous tree
Without realizing what you’ve left behind
Goodbye
I will remain
Let’s meet here someday
A reunion beneath the blue sky
This is my little wish
