English

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
The words that for the life of me I was never able to come out and say
Thank you so much

Ah, the town where I grew up, cultivating reckless passion
Whenever things didn’t go right I stopped believing in myself
But then I saw you, working so hard you were sweating
And it captivated me, it saved me, time and time again

I chased things I couldn’t reach and fell down like a fool
But you taught me the importance of not giving up

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
You enveloped me in an unchanging tenderness and strictness
Thank you so much

Not everything I’ve said or done has been right
But I did it with heart and passion, it was really embarrassing
When you showed me the way, I always talked back
Asserting myself, taking the long way round, getting lost

I rebelled and hurt myself, got carried away and lost track
And I think I learned a little about the importance of not giving up

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
The words I couldn’t say to you, who I love but hated
Thank you so much

I can run even when it’s hard to keep going
Surely, surely like you

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
The words that for the life of me I was never able to come out and say
Thank you so much
Thank you
