Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
	Akai hoppe kiiro no shattsu	Red cheeks, a yellow shirt
	Gizagiza moyou no boku no Best Friend	Zigzag markings, of my best friend
	Shiroi peeji rakugashite	We doodled on a white page
	Dekitate no uta utatta yo ne	And sang a brand new song
	Wasurenai yo kimi to no episoudo	I'll never forget the episodes I spent with you
	Ryoute ippai no "arigatou"	A hand full of "Thank You's"
	Yuuyami ni somaru oozora wo goran	Look to the twilight dyed heavens
	Pikapika atatakai hoshi ga warau yo	The sparkling warm stars are laughing
	Atarashii kaze ga yonde iru kara	Because the new winds are calling
	Kimi to aruite yukitai	I want to walk with you
	Dokumademo tsuzuku michi wo...	The road continues on forever...
