Looking up while walking
Ue wo muite arukou
So the tears won't fall
Namida ga koborenai youni
Remebering those spring days
Omoidasu haru no hi
All alone at night
Hitoribocchi no yoru
Looking up while walking
Ue wo muite arukou
And counting the scattered stars
Nijinda hoshi wo kazoete
Remembering those summer days
Omoidasu natsu no hi
All alone at night
Hitoribocchi no yoru
Happiness lies above the clouds
Shiawase wa kumo no ue ni
Happiness lies above the sky
Shiawase wa sora no ue ni
Looking up while walking
Ue wo muite arukou
So the tears won't fall
Namida ga koborenai youni
Keep walking on, while crying
Naki nagara aruku
It's a lonely night
Hitoribocchi no yoru
Remembering those autumn days
Omoidasu aki no hi
Sadness is in the shadow of the stars
Kanashimi wa hoshi no kage ni
Sadness is in the shadow of the moon
Kanashimi wa tsuki no kage ni
Looking up while walking
Ue wo muite arukou
So the tears won't fall
Namida ga koborenai youni
Keep walking on, while crying
Naki nagara aruku
It's a lonely night
Hitoribocchi no yoru
It's a lonely night
Hitoribocchi no yoru
