振りかえる 国境の街は
Looking back, the border town fades away
いつか消えていく 遠い蜃気楼
Eventually disappearing, a distant mirage
風を感じたら I'm just flying away...
When I feel the wind, I'm just flying away...
※君の好きな歌を いつも ポケットに入れて
Always pocketing the songs you love,
一本の音楽が 僕の旅のパスポート
One single melody is my travel passport,
昨日までの わずらわしさ
The hassle of yesterday,
やぶり捨てて しまえ※
I’ll just throw it all away*
遠ざかる 街の香りは
The scent of the town drifts further away,
君と過ごした 夏の余韻さ
It's the lingering summer I spent with you.
夢を追いかけて I'm just a rolling stone...
Chasing dreams, I'm just a rolling stone...
君の好きな歌を いつも ポケットに入れて
I always keep your favorite song tucked in my pocket.
一本の音楽が 僕に語りかける
One single melody speaks to me.
時は風さ 立ち止まれば
Time is like the wind; if we stand still,
通り過ぎて しまう
it will pass us by.
時には傷つけ合った
Sometimes we hurt each other,
こともある 僕らだけど
but that's just a part of us.
(※くり返し)
(※ repeat)
