今日も足早に過ぎ去ってしまうんだ そこで何を見て何を思うのか
kyou mo ashibaya ni sugisatte shimaunda soko de nani wo mite nani wo omou no ka
雲の形や 風の感じは きっと君の居る場所とは違うだろう
kumo no katachi ya kaze no kanji wa kitto kimi no iru basho to wa chigaudarou
人だかりで 立ち止まって それでも旅はまだ続いてて
hitodakari de tachidomatte soredemo tabi wa mada tsuzuitete
陽の明かりが消える前に 気付いてまた次を探している
hi no akari ga kieru mae ni kizuite mata tsugi wo sagashiteru
日々をくぐり抜けて 君の場所に向かっている
hibi wo kuguri nukete kimi no tokoro ni mukatteiru
まだ道は続いているから 君の事だけ考えながら歩いているんだ
mada michi wa tsuzuiteiru kara kimo no koto dake kangae nagara aruiteirunda
人が何処からか溢れてくるんだ 今日も忙しくまた動き出すでしょう
hito ga doko karaka afuretekurunda kyou mo ishogashiku mata ugokidasu deshou
何処で悩み 何処で眠り そんな風にただ繰り返して
doko de nayami doko de nemuri sonna fuu ni tada kurikaeshite
言葉には出来ないカラー どんな時でも伝えている
kotoba ni wa dekinai color donna toki demo tsutaeteiru
足りないよ温もりだけじゃ 明日もきっと考えながら
tarinaiyo nukumori dakeja ashita mo kitto kangae nagara
誰かの事 思い出して 傷の痛みに背中押されて
dareka no koto omoidashite kizu no itami ni senaka osarete
夢が終わる その間に 気付いてまた次を探している 探してゆく
yume ga owaru sono aida ni kizuite mata tsugi wo sagashiteru sagashite yuku
日々をくぐり抜けて 君の場所に向かっている
hibi wo kuguri nukete kimi no tokoro ni mukatteiru
まだ道は続いているから 君の事だけ考えながら
mada michi ha tsuzuiteiru kara kimi no koto dake kangae nagara
歩いてるんだ 考えているんだ 逢いに行くから
aruiterunda kangaeteirunda ai ni yukukara

Lyrics・Music:Tomoya Nagase Arr.:TOKIO
Today flies by again What am I looking at and thinking about
The shape of the clouds The feel of the wind They're probably different from where you are
In the crowd My feet stop And yet my journey still continues
Before the sunlight fades I figure it out and look for what's next again
Passing through the days I'm working my way to you
Because the road still goes on Thinking only of you, I'm walking
People overflowing from somewhere Another busy day has started today
Where to worry Where to sleep Just repeating the same things over and over
Color that can't be put into words Conveying all the time
Warmth just isn't enough I'll be thinking the same tomorrow
Remembering Someone Pushed on the back by the pain of a scar
Dreams end In the meantime I figure it out and look for what's next again Searching
Passing through the days I'm working my way to you
Because the road still goes on Thinking only of you
I'm walking Thinking of you I'm on my way to see you
Notes: I took a few more liberties than I normally do, so it's less direct then most of my translations with less room for interpretation, but the background of the song is clear, so it should be pretty close to what the lyrics are supposed to convey.
Personal thoughts: When I heard this, I cried. I love it when TOKIO songs are in this style (being a rockTOKIO girl more than a popTOKIO girl), but the lyrics did it. TOKIO has so many songs that are written by others and are tie-ins with shows or products and what-not. It's an essential part of their success and there is no doubt that they wouldn't have gotten this far without them. This also means the only things that don't have a tag on them are the songs in the albums and occasional c/w on singles. And those are songs that the guys want to sing. They have fun with them and have a lot more creative control. This is the first time the title song of an "album" (I still think [sugar] is a glorified single) has been written by the guys (technically written by Nagase and arranged by the guys) and it's an honest message to the fans. TOKIO's thoughts on the way to a venue where they're fans are waiting for them. There's a special relationship between a band and their fans and it means so much to me that TOKIO describe theirs the way they do in this song. They've said time and again that concerts are their favorite way to be with their fans. I'm not going to be there this time, but I'll see them again. And someday, whether it be in 10 or 20 years or later, they'll be on their way to see me where I live. TOKIO World Tour. It'll happen. I know it will. And I'll be waiting.
FOREVER TOKIO.
