To Me
original song by BOO BEE BENZ
covered by Otsuka Ai in the drama Tokyo Friends

j__anese:
ねぇ 君は誰　どうして　そんなところで
ヒザを抱え込んで泣いているの？
あぁ 君はいつかの僕だ
自分だけ置いてきぼり　悲しいんだね

風と緑と戯れたっけなぁ
裸足で噛んだ大地は優しくて
夢を描いた　果てしないまま
いつか途切れると　知らないまま

誰もがそれぞれに痛みを背負って
繰り返す今日を　必死で生きている
上手に歩けるさ コンクリートの道の上
土と風の匂いに振り返りながら

君が君自身を信じれないでさ
誰が君のことを信じるの？
自信をもっていいはずさ　もう一度勇気を振り絞る

疑いはしないさ　この道の行方
いつかたどり着ける　そう信じていく
裸足で歩くのは少し冷たくて
くじけそうになる日もあるんだろう

誰もがそれぞれに痛みを背負って
繰り返す今日を　必死で生きている
上手に歩けるさ コンクリートの道の上
土と風の匂いに振り返りながら

歩いてく

Romaji:
nee kimi wa dare doushite sonna tokoro de
hiza wo kakaekonde naiteiru no?
aa kimi wa itsuka no boku da
jibun dake oitekibori kanashiin da ne

kaze to midori to tawamuretakke na?
hadashi de kanda daichi wa yasashikute
yume wo egaita hateshinai mama
itsuka togireru to shiranai mama

dare mo ga sorezore ni itami wo seotte
kurikaesu kyou wo hisshi de ikite iru
jyouzu ni arukeru sa konkuriito no michi no ue
tsuchi to kaze no nioi ni furikaeri nagara

kimi ga kimi jishin wo shinjirenai de sa
dare ga kimi no koto wo shinjiru no?
jishin wo motte ii hazu sa mouichido yuuki wo furishiboru

Translation:
hey, who are you? why are you in that sort of place,
hugging your knees and crying?
...you are the way I am sometimes
you're sad from being the only one left behind, aren't you?

frollicking with the wind and greenery
the earth is kind upon your bare feet
the endless sketched dream as it is...
...as it is not knowing that it would end someday

everyone, as individuals, carrying with them pain
desperately living the repetition of today
able to walk skillfully upon the concrete streets
the fragrance of earth and wind causing you to look over your shoulder

you can't believe in yourself...
who would believe in you?
it should be ok to have confidence... one more time, muster up courage

I don't doubt where this road is heading
I will get there someday, I go on believing so
There may be some days you want to give up
because it is a little too cold to walk barefooted...

everyone, as individuals, carrying with them pain
desperately living the repetition of today
able to walk skillfully upon the concrete streets
the fragrance of earth and wind causing you to look over your shoulder
