First of all, a big thank you. 
 This all began with a yacht that the 5 of us got on 
 And now that we’re adults you might call that a tragedy 
 5 years isn’t an inconsiderable amount of time 

 In the beginning our bonds were weak 
 But there weren’t that many days we didn’t see each other 
 “If we keep going this way we’ll always be distant” 
 So we said… And now, among us, we understand 
 Our thoughts, our feelings 
 So… 
 We don’t let things get to us anymore and… 
 We know that here is where we can shine… 
 We can call out at the top of our lungs “These are [bad word] in-arms!” 
 And all of you listening out there [bad word] too 
 “It’s all right” 
 Just follow us 
 Those tears you’ve cried, we’ll wipe them away 
 Always 
 I wanna be w/u 
 Always 
 We wanna be w/u 

 The stars twinkling in the night sky… 
 If it’s you, they’ll send light and courage… 
 I’ll turn that into strength… 
 We can shine 

 That’s right. Won’t [bad word]  
 Closer… closer… closer…? 
 Just for today, what harm could it do? 
 Close enough to feel our love 

 Telling everyone how the volleyball was going… 
 Facing the turning of the second millennium… 
 Finding ourselves deeply touched in the depths of night… 
 Facing [bad word] at the Budoukan 
 Celebrating this moment, right now, with all of you 
 We vow to always fight by your side 
 You may think we’ve said it too often but… Thank you so much 
 Thank you to everyone here, everyone involved 
 Talking ‘till dawn, without sleeping a wink 
 We finally figured out what “Arashi” would be 
 Now, let’s cause [bad word] 
 If they’ve left that door open 

 “We can’t stop now” 
 You are my sunshine 
 And you are my soul, soul 
 No one can take these feelings away and no one can get in our way 
 No one can love us more than we love ourselves 

 The colors you have mixed for us 
 We’ll use to paint a picture 
 We’ll be there, and you’ll be there 
 And dreams will [bad word] reality 

 So don’t worry, okay? 
 There, you see? Just like always, 
 The path that we must walk 
 Is beautifully lit for us 
 By your smile 

 It’s no imposition at all 
 Those words [bad word] love, and rain down on us 
 It’s just us goofy guys but 
 We wanted to say it properly 
 Thank you so very much 
 And now, let’s paint the next picture… 

 So don’t worry, okay? 
 There, you see? Just like always, 
 The path that we must walk 
 Is beautifully lit for us 
 By your smile 

 That’s right. Won’t [bad word]  
 Closer… closer… closer…? 
 Just for today, what harm could it do? 
 Close enough to feel our love
