Kanashimi no naka de
Yume o dakishimeteta
Doshaburi no ame ni
Karada ga kogoetemo
Dream... kokoro no
Honou wa
Nido to kesanai to
Aoki sora yo hateshinaki sora
Hikari ga soko ni aru kagiri
Atsuku tsuyoku
Oretachi wa ikite yuku
Ai o kazashi, mamoritai
Towa no miraaai
Kizu tsuite hito wa
Uso o oboeru kedo
Afureru namida wa
Kodomo no koro no mama
Truth... jidai ga donna ni
Tsumi ni yogoretemo
Woah
Aoki sora yo sumiwataru sora
Tsubasa no haeta yume ga tobu
Kaze ni mukai
Oretachi no jounetsu ga
Itsuka tsukuru rakuen wa
Towa no miraaai
Aoki sora yo hateshinaki sora
Hikari ga soko ni aru kagiri
Atsuku tsuyoku
Oretachi wa ikite yuku
Ai o kazashi, mamoritai
Towa no miraaai
Aoki sora yo
Towa o utaaae
Woah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooooh
Yeah
In the sadness
I was holding my dream tightly
Even though I was
Freezing cold in the rain
Dream, I never
Even thought
Of the fire in my heart
Blue sky, the boundless sky
As long as the light exists there
Being hot, being strong
We continue to live
I want to protect out limitless future
By holding love in the air
People learn to lie
Through being hurt
But the tears down our faces
Just as when we were children
True, even through the years
Are stained by sins
Woah
Blue sky, the clear sky
The dream that has wings fly
Against the wind
Someday
The paradise that our passion will
Create is for eternal future
Blue sky, the boundless sky
As long as the light exists there
Being hot, being strong
We continue to live
I want to protect out limitless future
By holding love in the air
Blue sky
Sing everlasting
Woah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooooh
Yeah
