Niji no Kanata e Lyrics
The title, "Niji no Kanata e" (Over the Rainbow), makes me think of a completely different song. >_< This is around the time that Arashi's popularity really started to boom and this album shows pretty well that their singing and their style had matured.
Kanji:
ふいに浮かんだ感情も
噛み砕いては笑顔で隠して 過ごす毎日
ほんの些細な痛みと 言えずに秘めた弱さ重ねては
何かをためらってる
そうさどんな答えも 地図にはないけど
その気になって 踏み出せたら 道は開けるさ
高く羽ばたいて 果てしない夢だって あきらめないように
いつか追いかけた 虹の向こう 目指していこう
ずっとずっと描き続けた世界が きっとそこにある
電話越し 君の言葉
同じ温度を感じてしまうから 答えに戸惑ってる
そんな僕らにだって 明日は待ってる
負けたっていいさ 何回だって 立ち上がれるから
高く羽ばたくよ 誰だって そうやって 誇り持てるように
だから僕らの手 今を照らす光になろう
ずっとずっと抱き続けた想いは まだここにある
僕は歩いてくただ淡々と
Dom di gi dom di gi di gi dom dom
いまが散々でも虎視眈々
何万もの涙 虹へ jump up
そうさどんな答えも 地図にはないけど
その気になって 踏み出せたら 道は開けるさ
高く羽ばたいて 果てしない夢だって あきらめないように
いつか追いかけた 虹の向こう 目指していこう
ずっとずっと描き続けた世界が きっとそこにある
Romanji:
Fui ni ukanda kanjou mo
Kamikudaite wa egao de kakushite Sugosu mainichi
Hon no sasai na itami to Iezu ni himeta yowasa kasanete wa
Nanika wo tameratteru
Sou sa donna kotae mo Chizu ni wa nai kedo
Sono ki ni natte Fumi dasetara Michi wa hirakeru sa
Takaku habataite Hateshinai yume datte Akiramenai you ni
Itsuka oikaketa Niji no mukou Mezashite ikou
Zutto zutto egaki tsudzuketa sekai ga Kitto soko ni aru
Denwa goshi kimi no kotoba
Onaji ondo wo kanjite shimau kara Kotae ni tomadotteru
Sonna bokura ni datte Ahita wa matteru
Maketatte ii sa Nankai datte Tachiagareru kara
Takaku habataku yo Dare datte Sou yatte Hokori moteru you ni
Dakara bokura no te Ima wo terasu hikari ni narou
Zutto zutto idaki tsudzuketa omoi wa Mada koko ni aru
Boku wa aruiteku tada tantan to
Dom di gi dom di gi di gi dom dom
Ima ga sanzan demo koshitantan
Nanman mo no shizuku Niji e jump up
Sou sa donna kotae mo Chizu ni wa nai kedo
Sono ki ni natte Fumi dasetara Michi wa hirakeru sa
Takaku habataite Hateshinai yume datte Akiramenai you ni
Itsuka oikaketa Niji no mukou Mezashite ikou
Zutto zutto egaki tsudzuketa sekai ga Kitto soko ni aru
English:
The feelings that suddenly come to the surface
I passed the days by forcing out a pained smile to hide them
With a heart that's been just slightly wounded, I hide my weakness of being unable to say anything once again
I'm hesitating over something
That's right No matter what kind of answer you hear, it won't become a map to guide you
If you feel like it and can take a step forward, the path will open for you
Fly higher Even if it's a dream that won't end, I can't give up
Someday Over the rainbow I was chasing after Let's go towards it
The world I'd been drawing all along is surely there
Your words over the phone
I feel the same kind of warmth from them I'm lost for an answer
Even for people like us, there's a tomorrow waiting
It's okay to lose Because we can get up again and again
Fly higher That's how everyone holds pride in themselves
And so what we have in our hands will become a light to shine on the present
The feelings I'd been holding on to all along are still here
We're just steadily walking on and on
Dom di gi dom di gi di gi dom dom
Right now may be treating me pretty terribly, but I'll keep looking for a chance
Even if we cry tens of thousands of tears, let's jump up over that rainbow
That's right No matter what kind of answer you hear, it won't become a map to guide you
If you feel like it and can take a step forward, the path will open for you
Fly higher Even if it's a dream that won't end, I can't give up
Someday Over the rainbow I was chasing after Let's go towards it
The world I'd been drawing all along is surely there
