chiisana koroniwa takara no chizu ga
from when I was little, a treasure map
atama no naka ni ukande ite
had been floating inside my head
itsudemo sagashita kiseki no basho wo
I always looked for the place of miracles
shiranai dareka ni makenai yo ni
so that I wouldn't lose against that someone I didn't know

(la la la la...) imadewa (la la la la la...) hokori darake no mainichi
but now, everyday is full of dust
itsuno hi ka (la la la la...) subete no (la la la la la...) toki ni mi wo makaseru dake
someday, I will let myself be carried by all of time

moshimo sekai ga kawaru no nara
if this world can change
nanimo shiranai koro no watashi ni
to those days when I knew nothing
tsurete itte omoide ga iroasenai you ni
please take me there, so my memories don't fade away

chiisana koro kara uta wo utatte
I sang songs from when I was little
yumemiru kokoro atatameteta
and kept my dreaming heart warm
minna de mane shita himitsu no MELODY
the secret melody that everyone mimicked
kondo wa jouzu ni kikoeru youni
I hope it will be heard well this time

(la la la la...) imadewa (la la la la la...) tameiki tsuite bakari de
but now, all I do is sigh
daremo mada (la la la la...) hontou no (la la la la la...) yume sae tsukamenai mama
everybody has yet to grab a hold of the true dream

moshimo jidai ga modoru no nara
if times can be reversed
namida wo shitta koro no watashi ni
to those days where I just learned of tears
tsurete itte setsunasa ga oitsukanai you ni
please take me there, so my loneliness doesn't catch up to me

moshimo sekai ga kawaru no nara
if this world can change
nanimo shiranai koro no watashi ni
to those days when I knew nothing
tsurete itte omoide ga iroasenai you ni
please take me there, so my memories don't fade away

tsurete itte setsunasa ga oitsukanai you ni
please take me there, so my loneliness doesn't catch up to me
