窓がすこし開いていて
春の風が吹いていて
静かにゆれるカーテンが
やさしい光を包んでる
あれから一度春夏と
秋冬過ぎただけなのに
白く光る髪の毛も
5本や10本増えたけど
越えた谷が深いほど
登った山が高いほど
歩いた道が長いほど
強くなれると思ってた
スプーンに積もったプライドに
木枯らし吹いて咳き込んで
肩の荷物を降ろしたら
目線がちょっぴり高くなる
掘った穴の深さだけ
落ちたはしごの高さだけ
流した涙の熱さだけ
やさしくなれたらそれでいい
咲かない花を見に行こう
見えない星を数えよう
破れた夢のその先で
交わす乾杯 待ちながら
掴んだ夢のその後で
交わす乾杯 待ちながら
交わす乾杯 待ちわびて
