Lyrics
Verse 1
初詣の帰り道
歩道橋の真ん中で
冬の空は高すぎて
言葉が少し遅れてく
白い雲がゆっくりと
街の上を通り過ぎ
クラクションも足音も
今日の中に溶けていく
Pre-Chorus
願いごとはまだ胸で
ほどけないままだけど
この景色なら
信じてみてもいいと思えた
Chorus
大きな夢じゃなくていい
目立つ幸せじゃなくていい
今日がちゃんと
今日として終わればいい
行き交う それぞれの
帰る場所を抱えたまま
平凡な生活が
静かに 続いていく
Verse 2
歩道の下 信号待ち
ゆっくり進む車の中
小さな手が窓越しに
ぎこちなく揺れていた
それに応える やさしい顔
少し丸くなった背中
「気をつけてね」の代わりに
笑顔だけが残った
Pre-Chorus 2
特別な出来事は
何ひとつ起きないけど
それがなぜか
今日はとても温かい
Chorus
強くならなくていい
上手に生きなくていい
帰る場所が
ちゃんと待っていればいい
すれ違う 知らない
人生の途中でも
同じ昼の光が
ひとしく 照らしてる
Bridge
守りたいものは
遠くへ行かなくても
足元に いつも
静かに置いてあった
Last Chorus / Outro
平凡な日々の中に
確かに息づくもの
それを抱えて
また歩き出せる
歩道橋を降りたら
街はいつものまま
それでも少し
世界が 愛おしい

Verse 1
On the way back from the shrine
Standing in the middle of the overpass
The winter sky is so high
My words arrive a little late
White clouds drift slowly
Across the town below
Horns and footsteps fade
And melt into this day
Pre-Chorus
My wishes are still
Tangled in my chest
But looking at this scene
I feel like I can believe again
Chorus
I don’t need a dream that’s big
I don’t need a happiness that shines
If today can simply
End as today, that’s enough
Everyone passing by
Holding their own way home
An ordinary life
Quietly goes on
Verse 2
Down on the street, waiting for the light
Cars move slowly along
A small hand waves
Awkwardly through the window
A gentle smile answers back
A back grown slightly round with time
Instead of “take care”
Only that smile remains
Pre-Chorus 2
Nothing special happens
Not a single thing
And yet somehow
Today feels so warm
Chorus
I don’t need to be strong
I don’t need to be perfect
As long as there’s
A place that waits for me
Even lives I don’t know
Passing me by halfway through
Are all lit equally
By this midday light
Bridge
What I wanted to protect
Was never far away
It was always there
Quietly at my feet
Last Chorus / Outro
In these ordinary days
Something is softly breathing
Holding onto that
I can walk on again
When I step off the overpass
The town looks just the same
Still, somehow
The world feels dearer
