途中下車 | Tochuu gesha | Stopover

ずっと 眺めてた
走る窓のこの景色
いくつの山とトンネル抜けて
長い橋を渡ったか?

夢の終点は
まだ先だとわかっている
通過して行く小さな駅の名前
何となく気になってた

そこにはそこで 乗客が待ち
各駅停車の電車が来る
私は何を急いでいるのか
未来の時間は まだまだ残ってるのに…

途中下車して 歩こうか?
知らない世界がまだあるから
きっと人生はゆっくりと
最後のゴールを目指すもの

いつか 乗っていた
仲間たちとこのレール
一人一人とどこかで乗り換えて
思い出を旅立って行く

始発駅から乗り込めたから
時刻表通り進んで来た
終着駅で何をすればいい
本当にやりたいことがわからなくなった

途中下車して 考えよう
他にも色々夢はあるよ
そんな急いでもしょうがない
降りたいその駅で降りてみる

人は (人は) 誰も (誰も)
運命で動いてる
運ばれてるだけじゃつまらないよ
だけど (だけど) きっと (きっと) 自分の意思で
行き先は選べるんだ

途中下車して 歩こうか?
知らない世界がまだあるから
きっと人生はゆっくりと
最後のゴールを目指すもの

途中下車したその駅は
見るものすべてが新鮮だよ
何もしていない そのことが
一番大事だと 気づいたよ

All this while, I’ve been watching
The scenery passing outside the window
Pulling past numerous mountains and tunnels
Have we crossed the long bridge yet?

My dream destination
Is still far ahead, I know that
The names of the tiny stations rushing past
Somehow caught my interest

There are passengers waiting there
For the local train to arrive
So why am I hurrying past?
When there’s still so much time in the future…

Shall I stopover and take a stroll?
There are worlds still unknown to me
Surely, life is about taking our time
To reach our final goal

That one day, I boarded
This train with my comrades
Each one of us transferring somewhere
Our memories going on a journey

I’d gotten on at the first stop
And came here following the timetable
What will I do at the final stop?
I’ve lost sight of what I really want

Let’s do a stopover and think
I have lots of other dreams too
We can’t help but hurry
So I’ll get off at the stop I want

Every (every) person (person)
Moves by destiny
It’s boring to just be carried along
But (but) surely (surely) with our own will
We can choose our destination

Shall I stopover and take a stroll?
There are worlds still unknown to me
Surely, life is about taking our time
To reach our final goal

The station I stopped at
Everything I saw was so refreshing
Even if I didn’t do anything
I realized that was the most important thing
