The English Translation of "Yume to Iro de Dekiteiru"(Our times made of dreams and colour)
The world was once just for us, there were no dreams that couldn't come true. Somewhere in that long time, things faded and were forgotten. Let's go meet them again.
Surely, we haven't changed. Look, those gestures and the way you laugh, even if you've grown up, even if you've known tears, you're still you. We've met again.
One by one, pulling them closer, each connection brings color. Even hands that couldn't reach, we'll redo it. Now, we have started again.
Tomorrow, taking you away, taking away even memories, let's go see what's beyond the dream. We'll be waiting, forever.
Our times made of dreams and colors. Even feelings without form, believed they would save that day. Hey, believe it. I believe it.
Even the words I couldn't say, the feelings I didn't know, let's take them all with us. Resonating, like the trips we'll meet from now on.
And we'll arrive, following the promises we left behind. A secret place, matching melodies, they're here and still continuing.
One by one, piling them up, understanding the meaning of the beginning. Even sadness will surely be a password. Finally, the day we laugh towards, we aimed for.
Tomorrow, taking you away, taking away even memories, let's go see what's beyond the dream. We'll be waiting, just for us.
Our times made of dreams and colors. Even if it's missing, we called each other again. It was heard properly, reached. Hey, I believed it, always.
In the days no one knew, we misunderstood kindness, embracing treasures, getting lost. For example, you with lies, me with pain, we protected each other. Because of tightly held hands, we're a bit rough, just like us.
Tomorrow, taking you away, taking away even memories, let's go see what's beyond the dream. We'll be waiting, forever.
Our times made of dreams and colors. Even feelings without form, believed they would save tomorrow. Hey, believe it. I believe it.
Even the words I couldn't say, the feelings I didn't know, let's take them all with us. A journey so beloved, it won't stop resonating. Ah, I still love you.
