My Friend

Anata wo omou dake de kokoro wa tsuyoku nareru
Zutto mitsumeteru kara hashiritsuzukete.

Hitamuki datta tooi hi no yume wa
Ima demo mabushii
Donna ni fuan ga ippai demo
Massugu jibun no michi wo shinjite
Kazaranai sugao no anata ga suki...
Kawatte shimau koto ga kanashii.

Itsumo kagayaite ita ne
Shounen no mama hitomi wa My Friend
Anata ga soba ni iru to naze ka sunao ni nareta
Kono kyori toorinukeru kaze ni naritai.

Hontou no ai nara
Kitto ironna koto norikoerareta noni
Hoshi no PAREEDO namida ga koborenai you ni
Ookiku iki wo suitta
Hitori de iru toki no sabishisa yori
Futari de iru toki no kodoku no hoo ga kanashii.

Itsumo waratte ita ne
Ano koro futari setsunai My Friend
Anata wo omou dake de kokoro wa tsuyoku nareru
Zutto mitsumeteru kara hashiri tsuzukete.

Itsumo kagayaite ita ne
Shounen no mama hitomi wa My Friend
Anata wo omou dake de kokoro wa tsuyoku nareta
Zutto mitsumeteru kara hashiri tsuzukete.

Hashiri tsuzukete...

Translation

When I just think of you, my heart grows stronger
I'll always watch over you, so keep on running.

Those single-minded dreams
Of that day so long ago are even now dazzling
No matter what worries I'm filled with
I'll believe in the straight path I'm following
I loved your plain, unadorned face...
What's sad is that it's bound to change.

They were always so bright
Your eyes when you were a child, my friend
When you were by me, for some reason I could be honest
I want to become the wind that will cross this distance.

When it comes to true love
We certainly crossed over various things
So that the tears wouldn't fall like a parade of stars
I took a deep breath
More than the loneliness of being alone
What's sadder is the loneliness when we're together.

You were always smiling
Those times when we were together were trying, my friend
When I just think of you, my heart grows stronger
I'll always watch over you, so keep on running.

They were always so bright
Your eyes when you were a child, my friend
When I just thought of you, my heart grew stronger
I'll always watch over you, so keep on running.

So keep on running...
