Romanization

jiyuu to iu kippu wo katte
tobinotta Future Express
hayaku otona ni naritai
sou omotteita ano koro

“Koko dewa nai dokoka” wo mezashiteta

I wanna be free like the bird in the sky
ikisaki mada mada wakaranai mama demo
kinou to wa chigau jibun ni ai ni
TONNERU no mukougawa
atarashii mirai e
Time Traveller

kakueki teisha no SUPIIDO
kaze wo kanjiru SUPIIDO
miotoshite ita hana no iro
mitsuke nagara susumu day by day

asu no kaze ni fukarete doko e yukou

I think I will travel forever and more
douse nagai tabi nara aseru koto mo nai kara
kitto deau one love suteki na hito ni
mou ichimai no ticket to ride
wataseru hi made

I wanna be free like the bird in the sky
ikisaki wa mada mada wakaranai mama demo
kinou to wa chigau jibun ni ai ni
TONNERU no mukougawa
atarashii mirai e
Time Traveller

English translation

Buying a ticket to freedom
I got on the Future Express
‘I want to grow up fast’
so I’d thought back then

Aiming for “Anywhere that’s not here”

I wanna be free like the bird in the sky
Though I don’t know my destination yet
To meet a different self from who I was yesterday
To the other side of the tunnel
Toward a new future
Time Traveller

At the speed of a local train [1]
At a speed where I can feel the wind
Where I can catch the color of the flower that I had overlooked
While still moving forward day by day

Blown by the wind of the future, I want to go somewhere

I think I will travel forever and more
Because, if it’ll be a long journey anyway, no need to hurry
Until the day I hand
Another ticket to ride
To my one love, the wonderful person I’ll surely meet

I wanna be free like the bird in the sky
Though I don’t know my destination yet
To meet a different self from who I was yesterday
To the other side of the tunnel
Toward a new future
Time Traveller

Japanese

自由という切符を買って
飛び乗った Future Express
早く大人になりたい
そう思っていた あの頃

「ここではないどこか」を目指してた

I wanna be free like the bird in the sky
行き先は まだまだわからないままでも
昨日とは違う自分に会いに
トンネルの向こう側
新しい未来へ
Time Traveller

各駅停車のスピード
風を感じるスピード
見落としていた花の色
見つけながら進む day by day

明日の風に吹かれてどこへゆこう

I think I will travel forever and more
どうせ長い旅なら 焦ることもないから
きっと出会う one love 素敵な人に
もう一枚の ticket to ride
渡せる日まで

I wanna be free like the bird in the sky
行き先は まだまだわからないままでも
昨日とは違う自分に会いに
トンネルの向こう側
新しい未来へ
Time Traveller
