あの頃みたいに泣いていたいな
あんなにやんちゃなあいつが
いつしか黒いスーツを纏って汗水垂らして呑んで
夢に向かって目を輝かせていた君も
人目を気にして小さくなった
楽しいことってどんなだっけな
カメラロールに思いがふける
君ならきっともっと
楽しいことを
見つけられるさ素直になれば
世界はずっとずっと
簡単なんだよ
変わったのは僕たちだ
簡単に自分の気持ち殺して
誰かの為とか 綺麗事並べて
本当はもっと幼いくせして
立場とかくだらないモノを持った
哀しい日はどうしてたっけな
失恋に思いがふける
君ならきっともっと
落ち込んだ日々も
乗り越えられるさ素直になれば
世界はずっとずっと
簡単なんだよ
変わったのは僕たちだ
楽しいことってどんなだっけな
僕が僕らしくあるために
君が君らしくあるために
何ができるかな？
今から見つけにいこう
君ならきっともっと
楽しいことを
見つけられるさ素直になれば
世界はずっとずっと
簡単なんだよ
変わったのは僕たちだ

If You're Honest (Acoustic)
Joe Takizawa
This song, which begins with the lyric "I wish I could cry like I did back then", describes the stress and frustration within yourself as you go through education and getting a job and not being able to be an adult and having to act like an adult. Things that would have been easy to do when I was a child don't work out because they seem complicated when you are an adult. But if you remember your childhood, surely everything will be just fine.
And instead of blaming everything on the times and our surroundings , we are the ones who have changed, so let's be honest ourselves first. This is the song's message.
