On Your Mark

Soshite bokurawa itsumo no egaoto sugatade
And we, with smiles on our faces, Brush the dust off of our clothes
Hokorini mamireta fukuo haratta
If our hands should let go, it would not make a sound

Konote wo hanaseba otosae tatenai
A coin dropped, Noiselessly
Ochiteyuku koinwa nidoto kaeranai
Never to return

Kimi to boku narande
You and me, side by side
Yoakeo oinuitemitai jitensha
Racing the dawn on our bicycles

On Your Mark itsumo
On Your Mark, let's go
Hashiri daseba. Hayarino kaze ni yarareta
I always seem to catch the flu that's going around

On Your Mark bokura ga soredemo yamenainowa
On Your Mark We'll never quit
Yumeno shamen miagete ikesohna kigasurukara
We look up the hill of dreams, The crest in in sight

Soshite bokura wa kokoro no, chiisana akichide
And then, In the empty spaces of our hearts
Taganii furiotoshita kotobano yudachi
Shooting each other with a hail of words

Kimi to boku subeteo
We can't say the right thing
Mitomete shimauni wa mada wakasugiru
Like telling time, on a clock with invisible hands,
we're too young to appriciate it, much to our chagrin

On Your Mark itsumo
On Your Mark, let's go
Hashiri daseba. Hayarino kaze ni yarareta
I always seem to catch the flu that's going around

On Your Mark bokura ga soredemo yamenainowa
On Your Mark We'll never quit
Yumeno shamen miagete ikesohna kigasurukara
We look up the hill of dreams, The crest in in sight

Soshite bokura wa
And Then

On Your Mark, itsumo
On Your Mark, let's go
Hashiri daseba hayarino kaze ni yarareta
I always catch the flu that's going around

On Your Mark bokura ga soredemo yamenaino wa
On Your Mark We can't lose this one
Yumenoshamen miagete ikesohna kigasurukara
Because our hearts are called together as one

On Your Mark

Get, Set, Go

Soshite bokurawa
And Then........
