Lyric

I walk past your house every day

You ride off to school, your hair tucked away

Same old hallway, we brush and go

But you never once looked back to say hello

In the music room, I hear the keys

You play the tune that drifts with the breeze

The grass and wind start dancing slow

Even the birds sing soft for you, you know

I wish I could be your helmet now

Shield you from rain and the storm somehow

When you can’t sleep, I’d count the stars

And be your hero from a fairytale afar

My shoulder’s yours when you feel small

Let’s travel the world, grow old through it all

Just one sweet smile when you turn around

Is the best reward I’ve ever found

I find excuses to be near you

Lining up behind, pretending it’s new

But every time, my words just hide

My heart beats loud, I can’t confide

When you’re upset and frown that way

Even your anger’s gentle, I’d say

I wait each day till your class is done

I guess that’s love—quiet, stubborn, and strong

I wish I could be your helmet now

Shield you from rain and the storm somehow

When you can’t sleep, I’d count the stars

And be your hero from a fairytale afar

My shoulder’s yours when you feel small

Let’s travel the world, grow old through it all

Just one sweet smile when you turn around

Is the best reward I’ve ever found

Around the island’s not enough

Let’s chase the world, just us in love

To Hokkaido’s snow or desert’s glow

Through every storm, we’ll always go

I wish I could be your helmet now

Shield you from rain and the storm somehow

When you can’t sleep, I’d count the stars

And be your hero from a fairytale afar

My shoulder’s yours when you feel small

Let’s travel the world, grow old through it all

Just one sweet smile when you turn around

Is the best reward I’ve ever found
