Original Japanese English Translation
(1st half by Pioneer, 2nd half by Akemi)
Dareka no nisayauru tobashite subete ga owaru hi wo
Kokoro machi ni shiteru you na kibun wa nan darou

Warui koto nano ka sore to mo kore ga futsu nano ka
Hitori ja mou wakaranai yo dare ka oshiete kure

Soshite mata daisuki na ano hito ga
Toku e itte shima wa ayo dare ni mo kizukarezuni

Yume wa are kara doko e ittano ka
Kono basho ni tashika mukashi atta hazusa

Moeagaru you na aidatte atta
Ano koro no kimochi mo ichido

---End TV Theme--

Anta no jidai wa yokata yume ga afureteita
Kurushin demo kizutsuitamo chigau asu ga atta

Kakegoe bakari de nanimo kawaranai yo nonaka
Ashita kara mo kitto tsuzuku taikutsu na mainichi

Sore yori mo sukitosae ienakatta
Ano koi ga naze ima mo mada mune wo atsuku suru no ka

Hateshinai yume wo torimodo shite mitai
Itsu no hika kanau mono to shinjita yume
Dare ni demo atta kujikenai chikara
Mouichido omoidashitai yo

Yume wa are kara doko e ittano ka
Kono basho ni tashikani mukashi ata hazusa

Moeagaru you na aidatte atta
Ano koro no kimochi mo ichido
Torimodose
What's this feeling I have, as if I'm looking forward to
Somebody firing off his missiles and ending everything?

Is it a band thing, or is this normal?
I can't figure it out on my own, so somebody tell me!

And that person I love has once again
gone far away without anybody noticing.

Where have my dreams gone since then?
I could swear that they were right here long ago.

We had a love that set our hearts on fire.
Lets take back that feeling we had back then!


--End TV Theme--

The times with you were great because there were a lot of dreams.
There was always a different tomorrow even if you suffered or got hurt.

You can change nothing with only shouts in this world.
Boring days will certainly happen after tomorrow, too.

I wonder why the love for which I couldn't even say "l love you" still makes my heart hot.
I want to try to get back my endless dream.

My dream I believed it would come true someday,
The durable power everybody had,
I want to remember them once again.


Where have my dreams gone since then?
I could swear that they were right here long ago.

We had a love that set our hearts on fire.
Lets take back that feeling we had back then!
