Seiyuus: Megumi Hayashibara
Yane no ue de sora o aogu hizashi wa uraraka
Miageru sora karadajuu genki ga minagitteku
THAT'S SO WONDERFUL! ikiterunda!
Yamerarenai akirameru da nante
Tohou ni kureta kinou ni sayonara
Futsufutsu to wakiagaru kono kimochi
Nando demo yomigaeru hana o sakaseyou
Oomoide wa itsu mo amai nige basho
Dakedo tachi kire asu o ikiru tame
Shukufuku no toki wa kuru te o nobashite
Uruwashi no yawaraka na hada imada te wa todokazu
Me o tojireba fukuramu IMEEJI miwaku no kajitsu
THAT'S SO WONDERFUL! ikiterunda!
Yamerarenai sono saki o mitai
Dotou no hibi wa tsuzuku doko made mo
Tengoku to jigoku yukitsu modoritsu
Nando demo yomigaeru hana o sakaseyou
Hashire hashire ai o te ni suru made
Sore de kurushimu nara nozomu tokoro
Shukufuku no toki ga kuru te o nobashite
Tohou ni kureta kinou ni sayonara
Futsufutsu to wakiagaru kono kimochi
Nando demo yomigaeru hana o sakaseyou
Omoide wa itsu mo amai nige basho
Dakedo tachi kire asu o ikiru tame
Shukufuku no toki wa kuru te o nobashite
Te o nobashite ryoute agete
屋根の上で空を仰ぐ 日射しはうららか
見上げる空 体じゅう元気がみなぎってく
That’s so wonderful! 生きてるんだ!
やめられない あきらめるだなんて
途方に暮れた昨日にさよなら
ふつふつと湧きあがるこの気持ち
何度でも甦る 花を咲かせよう
思い出はいつも甘い逃げ場所
だけど断ち切れ 明日を生きるため
祝福の時は来る 手をのばして
うるわしの柔らかな肌 未だ手は届かず
目を閉じれば ふくらむイメージ 魅惑の果実
That’s so wonderful! 生きてるんだ!
やめられない その先を見たい
怒涛の日々は続く どこまでも
天国と地獄 行きつ戻りつ
何度でも甦る 花を咲かせよう
走れ走れ 愛を手にするまで
それで苦しむなら望むところ
祝福の時は来る 手をのばして
途方に暮れた昨日にさよなら
ふつふつと湧きあがるこの気持ち
何度でも甦る 花を咲かせよう
思い出はいつも甘い逃げ場所
だけど断ち切れ 明日を生きるため
祝福の時は来る 手をのばして
手をのばして 両手あげて
On the roof looking up at the sky, the sunlight is beautiful
Looking up to the sky, my whole body fills with energy
That's so wonderful! Just being alive!
Let's never stop or give up
Say goodbye to the confusion of yesterday
These feelings are bubbling up and boiling over
No matter how many times they come back, these flowers will bloom
Memories are always a sweet place to retreat
But if you break from them, you can live for tomorrow
A blessed time has arrived, so reach out your hands
This lovely and gentle skin, these hands have not yet reached
If I close my eyes this image expands, a fascinating seed
That's so wonderful! Just being alive!
Let's never stop, I want to see how it was before
Hectic days continue anywhere
Going back and forth between heaven and hell
No matter how many times they come back, these flowers will bloom
Run, run until you hold love in your hands
And then if you're worried, make a wish
A blessed time has arrived, so reach out your hands
Say goodbye to the confusion of yesterday
These feelings are bubbling up and boiling over
No matter how many times they come back, these flowers will bloom
Memories are always a sweet place to retreat
But if you break from them, you can live for tomorrow
A blessed time has arrived, so reach out your hands
Reach out your hands, lift up both hands
