Hikari (Translation)
Hikaru Utada · Other Songs - Hikaru Utada
I'm just alone
Destiny forgotten,
Even though I kept going.
Inside of the sudden light I awaken
In the middle of the night
ute Quietly,
Stand in the exit way,
And, in the pitch-black, take the light
And about the recent promises,
Is it just that I'm so anxious?
A wish that's wanting to be said, but shall be repressed
I'll introduce my family,
You'll surely get along well
No matter what the time
We'll always be together
No matter what the time
Because you're by my side
The light known as "you" finds me,
In the middle of the night
Enter a noisy street
And put on the mask of destiny.
Thinking too much about the future.
Stopping things that have no meaning.
Today I'll eat delicious things.
The future is always before us,
Even I don't know it.
It's not necessary to go right to the end,
Just keep going.
It's okay if the scenes
Go on one by one.
The light known as "you"
reflects my scenario
Let's talk more,
And about the tomorrow that's before your very eyes.
Turn off the television,
And look only at me.
No matter how well we're doing,
I don't believe in us completely.
But at those sort of times,
Because you're by my side,
The light known as "you" finds me,
In the middle of the night.
Let's talk more,
And about the tomorrow that's before your very eyes.
Turn off the television,
And look only at me.
Let's talk more,
And about the tomorrow that's before your very eyes.
Turn off the television,
And look only at me.
