夜が来ると不安になってさ
When night falls, I get filled with unease,
朝が来ると忘れちゃって
But when morning comes, I forget it all.
所詮僕の悩みなんかは
After all, my worries aren't much,
日の光で助かるんだもん
They're saved by the sunlight, you see.
案外いつも答えってやつは
Surprisingly, the answers we seek,
いつも近くに隠れててさ
Are always hiding close by, it seems.
怖いなら叫べばいい
If you're scared, just let out a scream.
何も恐れることはないよ
There's really nothing to fear at all.
信じれないなら信じなきゃいい
If you can't believe, then you don't have to.
空が晴れるのを待てばいい
Just wait for the sky to clear up, my friend.
いつかきっと分かるんだろう
Someday, I’ll surely understand
いろんなことに気づいちゃうのだろう
I’ll probably notice many things, you know
案外いつも幸せはさ
Surprisingly, happiness is always
ずっと近くにあるのにさ
Right there, so close to me
流れる汗はいつか
The flowing sweat will someday
零れる涙はいつか
The spilling tears will someday
溢れる笑顔はいつか
The overflowing smiles will someday

Become something precious, something dear
大事な大事なものになるよ
Become something precious, something dear

まだまだ捨てたもんじゃないってね
It's not over yet, not at all, you know?
