from Sakura Gakuin 2018 Nendo ~Life iroasenai hibi~ album.

That moonlight that’s too bright
The commotion of the swaying forest
I’ll bring you to a colorful world

Carry on… carry on…

Waiting still, hoping for a push on the back
Pride is just in the way, just so troublesome

Though it always seems the same
The scenery is changing every second
The sky that day and the sky today
Do they seem the same shade of blue to you?

Your hand that I used to hold so tightly
I need to gently let it go
Or you can’t grasp anything, even that hoped-for brand new future
Surely, even the curtains in the black of night
Will be seeped with various colors
Even if you can’t see it, the music of stardust is always around you

If you’re guided by the fragrance of memories that won’t fade
Let’s make a detour sometimes, following those footprints

Blocked by thick fog
That even a compass can’t pierce
Just spread out that map
You’ve imagined, and progress onward

Your eyes are tightly shut
I need to gently wake you up
Or you can’t notice anything, even the sun’s smile melting into the sea
Surely, even water with the clearest reflection
Echoes with various sounds
Riding on the ripple’s rhythm, the wind whistles invitingly

Your hand that I used to hold so tightly
I need to gently let it go
Or you can’t grasp anything, even that hoped-for brand new future
Surely, even the curtains in the black of night
Will be seeped with various colors
Even if you can’t see it, the music of stardust is always around you

Carry on… carry on…

ROOMAJI

Ano mabushi sugiru tsuki no hikari
Yurameku mori no zawameki
Irodorareta sekai he kimi wo tsurete

Carry on… carry on…

Dareka ni senaka oshite hoshii machiuke joutai
Puraido bakkari jama shiteru hokori tte mendou da

Itsumo to onaji to omotteitemo
Byou goto ni kawatteku keshiki
Ano hi no sora to kyou no sora
Kimi ni wa onaji ao na no kana?

Gyutto nigiri shimeta sono te
Sotto karappo ni shite okanakucha
Ma atarashii mirai wo nozondemo nanimo tsukamenai
Kitto makkuro na yoru no tobari ni mo
Ironna iro ga toke kondeite
Mienakutemo itsudemo kimi wo tsutsumu hoshikuzu no uta

Kesenai omoide no kaori ni michibikareta nara
Tama ni wa yorimichi shite miyou ashiato tadotte

Konpasu no hari mi ushinau hodo no
Fukai kiri ni habamareta tte
Omoi egaita sono chizu wo
Ookiku hirogete susumeba ii yo

Gyutto tsumutta mama no mabuta
Sotto me wo samashite okanakucha
Umi ni tokeru taiyou no egao ni mo nannimo kizukenai
Kitto massara na mizu no kagami ni mo
Ironna oto wo hibikaseteite
Hamon no rizumu ni nosete kimi wo sasou kaze no kuchibue

Gyutto nigiri shimeta sono te
Sotto karappo ni shite okanakucha
Ma atarashii mirai wo nozondemo nanimo tsukamenai
Kitto makkuro na yoru no tobari ni mo
Ironna iro ga toke kondeite
Mienakutemo itsudemo kimi wo tsutsumu hoshikuzu no uta

Carry on… carry on…

KANJI

あの眩しすぎる月の光
揺らめく森のざわめき
彩られた世界へ 君を連れて

Carry on… carry on…

誰かに背中押して欲しい 待受状態
プライドばっかり邪魔してる ホコリって面倒だ

いつもと同じと思っていても
秒毎に変わってく景色
あの日の空と今日の空
君には同じ青なのかな?

ぎゅっと握りしめたその手
そっと空っぽにしておかなくちゃ
真新しい未来を望んでも何も掴めない
きっと真っ黒な夜の帳にも
いろんな色が溶け込んでいて
見えなくても いつでも君を包む星屑の譜(うた)

消せない想い出の香りに導かれたなら
たまには寄り道してみよう 足跡辿って

コンパスの針 見失うほどの
深い霧に阻まれたって
思い描いた その地図を
大きく広げて進めばいいよ

ぎゅっと瞑ったままの瞼
そっと目を覚ましておかなくちゃ
海に溶ける太陽の笑顔にも何にも気づけない
きっと真っさらな水の鏡にも
いろんな音を響かせていて
波紋のリズムにのせて君を誘う風の口笛

ぎゅっと握りしめたその手
そっと空っぽにしておかなくちゃ
真新しい未来を望んでも何も掴めない
きっと真っ黒な夜の帳にも
いろんな色が溶け込んでいて
見えなくても いつでも君を包む星屑の譜(うた)

Carry on… carry on…
