Someday I'll get the answer Hit my pulsing chest

We were drawn to each other, still strong, still strong Hold on tight and pull me in Tie it tightly to my heart You can get there even if you get lost Because there's proof that we're connected here

Because we can meet again and again

The choices I've made over and over They all have meaning There's no mistake Even those tears lead to this place

A series of coincidences Now changes to the inevitable

The hand I extended is still far, far away And yet, I'm sure to remember The warmth that lingers in my heart I'll continue to be kept alive just like that day No matter what happens tomorrow, we'll still be tied together

the more I think about it The hand that reaches out to me becomes more red That tight thread is hard, thick and long

We believed in each other, still strong, still strong When I close my eyelids, you're there

We were drawn to each other, still strong, still strong Hold on tight and pull me in Tie it tightly to my heart You can get there even if you get lost Because there's proof that we're connected here

I'll meet you again and again Kanji = 足元に弛む糸が 果てしなく伸びて光る どこへ向かおうが 同じようについて回る

逆らうなと覚悟して 遠い記憶懐古して ついに手に取った 震え出した この振動伝わる？

いつかの答え合わせ 脈打つ胸を叩け

引かれあっていたまだ強く強く ピンと張ったままで手繰り寄せて こころにぎゅっと結びつけて ほら 迷ってもたどり着けるように ここに繋がってる証があるから

何度だってまた出会えるから

重ねてきた選択は 全て意味を持っている 間違いはないさ あの涙だってここに繋がる

偶然は連なって 今、必然に変わる

伸ばした手はまだ遠く遠く それでも確かに覚えている こころにずっと残るぬくもりに あの日のように生かされ続ける 明日何があっても結びつけたまま

想えば想うほど 手繰り寄せる手は赤く滲んでゆく 張り詰めたその糸は固く、厚く、永く、太く

信じあっていたまだ強く強く 瞼を閉じればそこにいる

引かれあっていたまだ強く強く ピンと張ったままで手繰り寄せて こころにぎゅっと結びつけて ほら 迷ってもたどり着けるように ここに繋がってる証があるから 何度だってまた出会えるから
