 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

大人になって行く事の意味
なんてわからないままだよ
だけどいつかのあのコやあいつ
今頃どこを目指して 歩いてるんだろう

夜明けが早くなったこの頃
風の匂いが変わったよ
懐かしいようでまだ見ぬようで
鼓動が早くなってく 愛しくて切ない

あの海へと続く道のり無邪気に
笑い転げて走り抜けて行った 遠い夏の日

今も胸に残る幼き僕達
その先に待つ未来の事なんて 知るすべもなく

残ったものは残したもので
偶然なんかじゃないよ
宇宙の意思があるとしたなら
確かに働いたんだろう 優しくて尊い

あれからどの位何かを求めて
見つけてはまた失う事ばかり 繰り返したけど

ここにある笑顔が教えてくれたよ
僕達は今 最も永遠に近い場所にいる

あの海へと続く道のり無邪気に
笑い転げて走り抜けて行った 遠い夏の日

あれからどの位何かを求めて
見つけてはまた失う事ばかり 繰り返したけど

ここにある笑顔が教えてくれたよ
僕達は今 最も永遠に近い場所にいる
