Artist: The Back Horn
Title: Yume no Hana (Flower in our Dreams)
Words: Matsuda Kenji
Music: The Back Horn

when was it
that I put on these shoes
that could so easilly
walk through the crowds like this?
the suffocating summer rain
when it came to this town,
I laughed innocently, never opening an umbrella.

the downpour of reality,
in a heart soaked through,
we close our eyes, as we tremble.

the flower in our dreams,
colored a hue beyond imagination
until that time, we'll wipe the tears
now, in this barren life
we scatter a handful of seeds
so that one day, they will fully bloom

Can't love ourselves, let alone others
tears that get dirtied the more we count them

when the rain lets up, and the new day overlaps with the rising sun
I thought I could see it, in the light.

the flower in our dreams,
colored a hue beyond imagination
until that time, we'll wipe the tears
now, in these days that've just begun,
we'll spread a water of our own
so that one day they will fully bloom.
