I greet you with cat eyes and dog ears I don't want to miss a single thing For example, I don't care if someone's jealous of me We're facing each other here now A secret map shows the intersection Brilliantly unfolding The cheerful sky, the roadside trees are a collage of scraps@ I'm happy about an uncertain tomorrow The world is busy; if someone wins, someone else has to lose Nothing is easy But I'm so happy, my smiles come unbidden I understand more now When I tried to go out for lunch on my own I spent the afternoon wandering around Kagurazaka I knew we were connected The roads I couldn't get through And the steps I took weren't a waste Though the seasons, the color of the clouds matches you There's not a single thing I want If I could have just one wish, it would be to talk to you After all, we're from the same country There's patriotism here
