Ashita he Tsurete

Your shoulders are slumped and your back soaking wet
The cool raindrops hide your tears
Was I too arrogant, I wonder?
At the very last, when I failed to take the final step to victory

The rain will let up / ‘Cause our journey as a team has only just begun

Take all of today’s pain and frustration and carry it with you to tomorrow
Reaffirm those feelings of genuinely wanting to win
Let’s face forward and advance a step / There’s nothing to fear, right?
All of us who hold this conviction
Can become ever stronger

With a method more certain that just a wish and a prayer
We’ll work up a sweat as we rush to seize it

There’s no quick and easy way / Our effort will grow into trust

Our loss today wasn’t in vain / Not everyone can say the same
We’re entrusting that sentiment to our future selves
With the bitterness that remains in each of our hearts
We’ll rebound and then, once again
We’ll return, without a doubt

Take all of today’s pain and frustration and carry it with you to tomorrow
Reaffirm those feelings of genuinely wanting to win
Let’s face forward and advance a step / There’s nothing to fear, right?
All of us who hold this conviction
Can become ever stronger
