走る街を見下ろして
Looking down on the bustling town,
のんびり雲が泳いでく
Leisurely clouds are swimming by.
誰にも言えないことは
Things I can’t share with anyone,
どうすりゃいいの?
What should I do about that?
おしえて
Please tell me.
急ぐ人にあやつられ
Caught up by the rushing crowd,
右も左も同じ顔
Both left and right have the same faces.
寄り道なんかしてたら

I'll be left behind.

Right away.
嘘でごまかして
Hiding behind a lie,
過ごしてしまえば
If I just let the days go by,

Though I never asked for it,
同じ様な朝が来る
Another morning comes just the same.
走る街を見下ろして
Looking down at the bustling city,
のんびり雲が泳いでく
Clouds drift lazily along,
だから歩いて帰ろう
So let's walk our way back home,
今日は歩いて帰ろう
Today, let's walk our way back home.
嘘でごまかして
Hiding behind a lie,
過ごしてしまえば
If I just let the days go by.
たのみもしないのに
Though I didn’t ask for it,
同じ様な風が吹く
A similar wind blows on.
急ぐ人にあやつられ
Controlled by those rushing by,
言いたい事は胸の中
What I want to say stays in my heart.
寄り道なんかしてたら
If I take a detour or two,
置いてかれるよ
I'll be left behind, you know.
いつも
Always,
走る街を見下ろして
I overlook the bustling city,
のんびり雲が泳いでく
While the relaxed clouds drift by,
僕は歩いて帰ろう
I’ll just walk my way home.
今日は歩いて帰ろう
Today, let’s walk home.
