Kikyou ga Oka

Lyrics & Composition: Ken Hirai
Arrangement: Trio Oohashi

When you say "I'm home" with a tiny voice
I can't help but be worried, but
I put a hand to your rounded back
and say "Welcome home" with as gentle a voice as I can

When you're hurt by something
my irritation won't give change
but when I gaze at your smile
when you've overcome it, that becomes my pride

Though what we get engrossed in changes
these feelings of getting engrossed won't change
though I can't get close to everything reflecting in your eyes

The cold rain and the wind cutting your cheeks may break your heart
But so you don't lose, so you can regain it, I'll warm you up right here

Spilling over beyond the locked door
I only heard your crying voice
Don't forget: when we win something
there are tears of those who lost, always

To speak honestly, I too
am not an adult who can be puffed up with pride
and I've had nights when I raised my voice and rented my frustrations - I'm truly sorry

Even if the day comes when you someday open the door and fly into your own sky
to be the place where you can rest your wings, I will warm you up right here

The cold rain and the wind cutting your cheeks may break your heart
But so you don't lose, so you can regain it, I'll warm you up right here
I'll warm you up right here

* Kikyou ga Oka is the name of a station in Osaka, Mie. This is around where Hirai Ken was brought up.

"Tada ima" no koe ga chiisai toki wa
Shinpai de shikata ga nai n dakedo
Maruku natta senaka ni te wo atete
Dekiru dake yasashii koe de iou "Okaeri"

Anata ga nanika ni kizutsuita toki
Kawatte agerarenai ha ga yusa wa
Sore wo norikoeta toki no egao wo
Mitsumeta toki ni watashi no hokori ni naru kara

Muchuu na mono wa kawaru kedo
Muchuu ni naru kimochi wa kawaranai de
Sono hitomi ni utsuru mono subete ni yorisou koto wa dekinai keredo

Tsumetai ame ga hoho kiru kaze ga anata no kokoro wo kudaku kamoshirenai
Makenai you ni torimodoseru you ni koko dake wa atatamete okou

Kagi wo kaketa DOAgoshi ni koboreru
Anata no nakigoe wo tada kiiteta
Wasurenai de nanika ni katsu toki wa
Makeru hito no namida ga aru koto wo itsudemo

Shoujiki iu to watashi datte
Mune wo hareru you na otona ja nakute
Koe wo agete iradachi wo butskeru yoru mo atta hontou ni gomen ne

Itsuka anata ga tobira wo akete jibun no sora wo habataku hi ga kitemo
Hane wo yasumeru basho ni naru tame koko dake wa atatamete iyou

Tsumetai ame ga hoho kiru kaze ga anata no kokoro wo kudaku kamoshirenai
Makenai you ni torimodoseru you ni koko dake wa atatamete okou
Koko dake wa atatamete okou
