Lyrics Meaning
Moving forward, not looking back, like flowers growing straight, I want to swim freely in this world. Will I ever be released from unerasable memories and past wounds? I thought I had to keep moving forward, but you took my hand and smiled, saying, “Together, we can surpass the present.” You taught me that even when we want to change, we don’t know where to start. But there are days when the sun gradually connects us to the direction it shines. Together, we find the strength to live on, and you hold my hand, smiling, “Together, we can surpass anything.”
