Ano Hi no Gogo (Afternoon on That Day)
TV-TOKYO ANIME "Yuugiou Duel Monsters" (Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters) 2nd Ending Theme

tooi tooi mukashi ni mo koko ni ita you na ki ga suru
yuuhi ga irodotta houkago no kyoushitsu
kirisugita maegami wo yubisashiwarau minna to
I feel like I was here
A long, long time ago
In this classroom after school
Painted by the setting sun
With everyone who pointed and laughed
At my bangs that were cut too short

boku ga boku de aru tame ni to
gamushara mae dake mite kita
ta'ai mo nai kono jikan ni
mamorarete'ru tte kidzuki mo shinaide
For me to be me
I've always kept my eyes fixed in front of me
Not even realizing that these innocent times
Were really protecting me

dare datte sorezore ni mukau zahyou chigau keredo
ima wa sou yoseatta KOKORO onaji da ne
Everyone is headed
In all sorts of different directions
But right now, our hearts have come together
And they're one, aren't they...

nagai michi itsu made mo tsukazu hanarezu iretara
If I can be with you forever on this long road
Staying neither too close nor too far away...

kimi ga kimi de aru tame ni wa
nani wo nozomi yume miru?
boku ni dekiru koto wa subete
youi shite'ru yo kuchi ja ienakutemo
For you to be you
What do you wish for in your dreams?
Everything that I can do
I'm preparing now for you, though I can't tell you

sukoshizutsu toki wa nagareru
maegami boku no mabuta ni
fureru koro mo kitto kawaranu
yuuyake ga minna wo tsutsunde
boku ga boku de aru tame ni to
nanika wo sagashitsudzuketa
ta'ai mo nai kono jikan ga
kotae da to shitta   kore kara mo zutto...
Time trickles by drop by drop
My bangs now brush my eyelids as time seems to stop
The sunset envelops everyone...
For me to be me
I've always been searching for something
But these innocent times hold the answer
I know it, forevermore...
