haru ga mata kuru tabi hitotsu toshi wo kasane
me ni utsuru keshiki mo sukoshi zutsu kawaru yo
youki ni hashaideta osanai hi wa tooku
kigatsukeba isoji wo koeta watashi ga iru
shinjirarenai hayasa de toki wa sugisaru to shitte shimattara
donna chiisana koto mo oboete itai to kokoro ga itta yo
I say it's fun to be 20
You say it's great to be 30
And they say it's lovely to be 40
But I feel it's nice to be 50
mankai no sakura ya irozuku yama no momiji wo
kono saki ittai nando miru koto ni naru darou
hitotsu hitotsu jinsei no tobira wo akete wa kanjiru sono omosa
hitori hitori aisuru hitotachi no tameni ikite yukitai yo
I say it's fine to be 60
You say it's alright to be 70
And they say still good to be 80
But I'll maybe live over 90
kimi no denimu no ao ga asete yuku hodo ajiwaimasu youni
nagai tabiji no hate ni kagayaku nanika ga dare ni demo aru sa
I say it's sad to get weak
You say it's hard to get older
And they say that life has no meaning
But I still believe it's worth living
But I still believe it's worth living
