Angela Aki - Tegami lyrics

rate me

Dear you,

Who's reading this letter

Where are you and what are you doing now?

For me who's 15 years old

There are seeds of worries I can't tell anyone

If it's a letter addressed to my future self,

Surely I can confide truly to myself

Now, it seems that I'm about to be defeated and cry

For someone who's seemingly about to disappear

Whose words should I believe in?

This one-and-only heart has been broken so many times

In the midst of this pain, I live the present

Dear you,

Thank you

I have something to tell the 15-year-old you

If you continue asking what and where you should be going

You'll be able to see the answer

The rough seas of youth may be tough

But row your boat of dreams on

Towards the shores of tomorrow

Now, please don't be defeated and please don't shed a tear

During these times when you're seemingly about to disappear

Just believe in your own voice

For me as an adult, there are sleepless nights when I'm hurt

But I'm living the bittersweet present

There's meaning to everything in life

So build your dreams without fear

Keep on believing

Seems like I'm about to be defeated and cry

For someone who's seemingly about to disappear

Whose words should I believe in?

Please don't be defeated and please don't shed a tear

During these times when you're seemingly about to disappear

Just believe in your own voice

No matter era we're in

There's no running away from sorrow

So show your smile, and go on living the present

Go on living the present

Dear you,

Who's reading this letter

I wish you happiness

Romaji Lyrics

Haikei kono tegami yondeiru anata wa

Doko de nani wo shiteiru no darou

Juugo no boku ni wa dare ni mo hanasenai

Nayami no kanae ga aru no desu

Mirai no jibun ni atete kaku tegami nara

Kitto sunao ni uchiake rareru darou

Ima makesou de nakisou de

Kieteshimaisou na boku wa

Dare no kotoba wo

Shinji arukeba ii no?

Hitotsu shika nai kono mune ga nando mo barabara ni warete

Kurushii naka de ima wo ikiteiru

Ima wo ikiteiru

Haikei arigatou juugo no anata ni

Tsutaetai koto ga aru no desu

Jibun to wa nani de doko e mukau beki ka

Toitsu dzukereeba mietekuru

Areta seishun no umi wa kibishii keredo

Asu no kishibe e to yume no fune yo susume

Ima makenai de nakanai de

Kieteshimaisou na toki wa

Jibun no koe wo shinjiaru keba ii no?

Otona no boku mo kizutsuite

Nemurenai yoru wa aru kedo

Nigakute amai ima ikiteiru

Jinsei no subete ni imi ga aru kara

Osorezu ni anata no yume wo sodatete

La la la, la la la

Keep on believing

La la la, la la la,

Keep on believing, keep on believing, keep on believing

Makesou de nakisou de

Kieteshimaisou boku wa

Dare no kotoba wo shinji arukeba ii no?

Aa Makenaii de nakanai de

Kieteshimaisou na toki wa

Jibun no koe wo shinjiarukeba ii no

Itsu no jidai mo kanashimi mo

Sakete wa torenai keredo

Egao wo misete ima wo ikite yukou

Ima wo ikite yukou

Haikei kono tegami yondeiru anata ga

Shiawase na koto wo negaimasu
