S-JIS ROMAJI TRANSLATION
そして時は流れてく
季節ごとに色変え
そして時は流れてく
時にそれは残酷に

誰もが子供であった事
忘れちゃいないかい
夢中で遊んで日が暮れて
寂しく帰った

形ないものを生み出し
歴史に残すのは至難
自分の事は棚の上
批判するは容易い事

私は私なんだよ
誰かの自由にはならないよ
負けぬようにこのカラダと
我がココロを鍛えてゆく

そして時は流れてく
季節ごとに色変え
そして時は流れてく
時に過去を洗うように

本当の初恋の事を
覚えているかい
記憶に残るその恋が
初恋だろうか

計画書に値が付いても
夢には価値は付けられぬ
誰かにモノを託すなら
後でウダウダ言うんじゃない

私は私なんだよ
年齢で全てを決めないで
時代を先読みなんて
した気になった時点で終了

私は私なんだよ
誰かの自由にはならないよ
負けぬようにこのカラダと
我がココロを鍛えてゆく

そして時は流れてく
季節ごとに色変え
そして時は流れてく
時にそれは残酷に

そして時は流れてく
季節ごとに色変え
そして時は流れてく
時に過去を洗うように

And so time will pass,
Changing colors with each season
And so time will pass
Sometimes it is merciless
 
No one can really forget
The days when they were young, right?
Playing around in a daze
And lonely returning home when it got dark
 
Creating things without form,
It's virtually impossible to leave your mark on history
Being blind to your own faults,
It's easy to criticize someone else
 
I am who I am
I won't be someone who others can use
So that I cannot lose,
I will strengthen my spirit and body
 
And so time will pass,
Changing colors with each season
And so time will pass
Sometimes to wash away the past
 
Do you remember
Your first true love?
I wonder if the love that remains in your memory
Is considered your first love
 
Though we place value on making plans,
You can't put a price on dreams
If you entrust something to someone,
You shouldn't complain about it afterwards
 
I am who I am
Don't make judgements just on age
Talking about foreseeing an era
It ended the moment you felt like you've done this already
 
I am who I am
I won't be someone who others can use
So that I cannot lose,
I will strengthen my spirit and body
 
And so time will pass,
Changing colors with each season
And so time will pass
Sometimes it is merciless
 
And so time will pass,
Changing colors with each season
And so time will pass
Sometimes to wash away the past
