==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
故郷に続く道 	furusato ni tsuzuku michi 	On the road that leads me home
あなたのことを想う 	anata no koto o omou 	I think of you.
繰り返す月日が 	kurikaesu tsukihi ga 	The passage of time
そこにいないこと慣れさせた 	soko ni inai koto naresaseta 	has accustomed me to being away.
 	 	
母はここに来ると 	haha wa koko ni kuru to 	When your mother arrived …
寂しくも嬉しそうに 	sabishiku mo ureshisou ni 	you tell me your memories
思い出語るから 	omoide kataru kara 	looking lonely yet glad,
うなずき静かに目を閉じる 	unazuki shizuka ni me o tojiru 	so I nod and quietly close my eyes.
 	 	
行く度に「また背が伸びたね」と 	iku tabi ni "mata se ga nobita ne" to 	Whenever I come over, he says "You've grown again, eh?"
照れくさい　何もしてないのに 	terekusai nani mo shite nai no ni 	Though it's embarrasing and I do nothing,
わがままで迷惑多くかけたけど 	wagamama de meiwaku ooku kaketa kedo 	my selfishness has caused you a lot of trouble
何も言わずに優しく包んだ 	nani mo iwazu ni yasashiku tsutsunda 	but without saying a word I lovingly wrapped you in my arms.
 	 	
あなたがくれた　言葉たちは 	anata ga kureta kotobatachi wa 	The words you gave me
今も心の奥に刻まれていて 	ima mo kokoro no oku ni kizamarete ite 	are even now inscribed inside my heart …

僕は嫌いなニンジンを 	boku wa kirai na ninjin o 	I forced down through tears
泣きながら飲み込んでいた 	naki nagara nomikonde ita 	those disgusting carrots.
 	 	
命吹き込んだ凧　 	inochi fukikonda tako 	You blew life into a kite

「ゲームの方が楽しい」と　 	"geemu no hou ga tanoshii" to 	"I prefer playing video games," I said,
あなたを困らせてばかりで 	anata o komarasete bakari de 	always putting you to bother.
