english:

winding road

like a bird that forgot how to fly

i forgot how to walk
and ran and ran

now i look back on the road

which i feel
both long and short

yes, this is the road i chose

(*) the footprints i left behind

are distorted and muddy
but i don't regret them at all
i'm proud of them from the bottom of my heart

yes, this is the road i chose

(*) repeat

i can't live along well as before

i'm not so tactful
but one thing i can tell you is
i keep on going this way with my head held high

a bird that forgot how to fly

will be able to flap its wings once again
just as i could start walking again
