いっせーのーせで踏み込むゴーライン僕らは 何も何もまだ知らぬ 一線越えて振り返るともうない僕らは 何も何もまだ知らぬ

うだってうだってうだってく 煌めく汗がこぼれるのさ

覚えてないこともたくさんあっただろう 誰も彼もシルエット 大事にしたいもの持って大人になるんだ どんな時も離さずに守り続けよう そしたらいつの日にか なにもかもを笑えるさ

ひらりとひらりと舞ってる 木の葉が飛んでゆく

English
Altogether now, make a break for the goal line We don't know anything, anything yet We passed the point of no return, but looking back We don't know anything, anything yet

Fired up, fired up, get fired up Bursting with glistening sweat

There are probably a lot of things we don't even remember Everyone, even him, becoming mere silhouettes As I become an adult, there are things I'd want to protect Things that I'll continue to defend, and never let go of And that way, one day We'll be able to look back and laugh at it all

Lightly, and nimbly, they dance Leaves flying off into the distance

Counting together, As we step over the goal line, We still didn’t know a thing. Going beyond that line, But seeing it gone when we looked back, We still didn’t know a thing. Sweltering, sweltering, sweltering… Our shimmering sweat will pour on out! There are probably lots of things we don’t even remember; Everyone, even he, is a silhouette. We’ve pretended to forget the things we held dear, So we can just laugh and say it’s nothing.

As we count together, We all remember: We wanted to have it all. I know… Ahh, I’ve noticed… The hands on the clock… these days… can’t be stopped. Fighting, fighting, fighting for ownership, Time and memories flow, Getting further, further, further away… There are probably lots of things we don’t even remember; Everyone, even he, is a silhouette. Everything we’ve worried about, We’ve tried to sweep under the carpet, So we can just laugh and say it’s nothing.

Lightly, nimbly, they dance… Just like those leaves, having a singular purpose, I want to proceed without impatience. There are probably lots of things we don’t even remember; But there are also things, That will never change, And you, who taught me this, Are a fading, fading silhouette. Clutching the things we wish to hold dear, We’ll become more mature, Never letting them wander… Protecting them at all times. Then someday… We’ll be able to laugh about it all.

Lightly, nimbly, they dance… Those leaves fly into the distance.

WO…
