もう 時がたつと
忘れてしまうのかな
俯く肩夕暮れ
いつかのように優しくて
もう 憧れには
なれるはずもないから
壊れてゆく心で
今日もキミの事唄うよ
白いＴシャツ似合ってた
火照り溶けてゆく季節を
あとどれくらい見送れば
待たせすぎた恋は叶うかな
何度も何度も声を枯らして
キミの未来に俺が映る日まで
きっと超えてゆけるさ
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL
生きるということキミと
もう 信じることはやめた
絶望や失望 哀愁 悲哀も
俺にはいらない
白いため息不安でさ
凍え震える季節を
あとどれくらい見送れば
待たせすぎて困り顔の
キミは笑うかな
何度も何度も声を枯らして
キミの未来に
俺が映る日まで
きっと超えてゆけるさ
誰かが何を言おうとも
暗がりの中小さなその手
ギュッと繋いで
陽だまりの中連れてゆくから
そう 怖がらないで
きっと超えて行けるさ
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL
生きるということキミと
