Shadows of Youth

Lyrics & Composition: Kazuo Zaitsu
Arrangement: TULIP

The long, straight path continuing to your heart
has always encouraged me
Though it was a really, really rugged and narrow path
now I'll go to meet you
Chasing my big dreams
has been my job up till now
but making you happy, that for sure
will be the sign that I'm living from here on

When tears were brought to your eyes
and spilt over because you knew love
you learnt that the joys of a crush are merely
a bridge to the harshness of love
Just standing in the wind
you eventually discovered it
Just entrusting your tears to the wind
you became a woman

Now I confirm the path
continuing to your home is at my feet
Starting today, you're an ordinary woman
Starting today, I'm an ordinary man

Seishun no Kage

Sakushi & Sakkyoku: Zaitsu Kazuo
Henkyoku: TULIP

Kimi no kokoro e tsuzuku nagai ippon michi wa
Itsumo boku wo yuukizuketa
Totemo totemo kewashiku hosoi michi datta kedo
Ima kimi wo mukae ni yukou
Jibun no ooki na yume wo ou koto ga
Ima made no boku no shigoto datta kedo
Kimi wo shiawase ni suru sore koso ga
Kore kara no boku no ikiru shirushi

Ai wo shitta tame ni namida ga hakobarete
Kimi no hitomi wo koboreta toki
Koi no yorokobi wa ai no kibishisa e no
Kakehashi ni suginai to
Tada kaze no naka ni tatazunde
Kimi wa yagate mitsukete itta
Tada kaze ni namida wo azukete
Kimi wa onna ni natte itta

Kimi no ie e tsuzuku ano michi wo
Ima ashimoto ni tashikamete
Kyou kara kimi wa tada no onna
Kyou kara boku wa tada no otoko
