Ashiato (Footsteps)

[yuiyoshida]

English:

You can’t get anything precious,
Unless you offer something equally precious.
Like you keep standing in the rain,
To see the iridescent rainbow.

And yet you are still as naïve
As to believe in that awkward dream.

I don’t care if I lost everything to make my wish come true.
Only if you are here with me.
No matter how many times I would be betrayed,
No matter how much tears I would cry,
All I need is a tomorrow I can chase with you.
With your words, I can leave my footsteps behind me.

I walk past people on the street.
Each of them with his shiny dream.
How many lights will reach them?
They are like lost travelers.

You, a dreamer
You are still pursuing this road.

Even if I achieve my wish and get everything I want,
It has no meaning if you are not here with me.
To share my joy.
To share my sorrow.
When we look at each other, we can be strong.
I will leave my footsteps beside you.

And yet you are still as naïve
As to believe in that awkward dream.

I don’t care if I lost everything to make my wish come true.
Only if you are here with me.
No matter how many times I would be betrayed,
No matter how much tears I would cry,
All I need is a tomorrow I can chase with you.
With your words, I can leave my footsteps behind me.
