Okaeri sweet home
kaeru basho ai o arigatou
    Welcome home, sweet home
    My place to return to, thank you for your love

Mata heiki na furi o shite
kanashimi no iro o nuritsubushite waratteshimau n desu
shinjiru koto no taisetsu sa wakatteru no ni
izato iu toki utagatteshimau n desu
    Again I acted as if I was fine
    Painted over the colour of my sadness and ended up smiling
    The importance of believing, even though I know it
    When it comes down to it, I end up doubting it

Karappo no karada nagareru toki ni
uiteshimaisou ni naru kedo
anata no koto dakishimetai
kono kimochi ga tsukiugokasu no
    This empty body, in the flow of time
    I feel I may just float along but
    I want to embrace you
    This feeling stirs me into motion

Okaeri I'm home
hitogoto de mitasareru kokoro
okaeri sweet home
kaeru basho ai o arigatou
sweet home
    Welcome home, I'm home
    My heart is filled by that one phrase
    Welcome home, sweet home
    My place to return to, thank you for your love
    sweet home

Jibun no koto bakari o kangaeru otona wa zurui n da to
omotteita n desu
demo hisshi de kaeru koto o
sakenderu hito mo iru n da to yatto shitta n desu
    Adults who only think of them selves are unfair
    I used to think
    But there are also people
    who shout desperately of change, I finally found out

Atarimae no shiawase nanka kono sekai ni hitotsu mo nai
"anata no tame" sou ometa
kono kimochi ga tsukiugokasu no
    Things like an 'obvious' happiness, there isn't a single one in this world
    "for you" I was able to think
    This feeling stirs me into motion

Okaeri I'm home
supiido ga kasoku shiteku mainichi
okaeri sweet home
kawaranai zutto aru keshiki
sweet home
    Welcome home, I'm home
    Everyday keeps picking up speed
    Welcome home, sweet home
    Unchanging, a scene that's always there
    sweet home

Sagashite nakushita
kokoro no kizu ga
tachimukau tsuyosa ni kawareta no wa
"okaeri" ga atta kara
    Searched for, and lost
    What made the scars on my heart
    able to change into strength was
    because I had that "welcome home"

Okaeri I'm home
hitogoto de mitasareru kokoro
okaeri sweet home
kaeru basho ai o arigatou
    Welcome home, I'm home
    My heart is filled by that one phrase
    Welcome home, sweet home
    My place to return to, thank you for your love

Okaeri I'm home
daijoubu anata ga iru kara
okaeri sweet home
mattete ne mou sugu tsuku kara
sweet home
    Welcome home, I'm home
    It's alright, because you are there
    Welcome home, sweet home
    Wait for me, because I'll be there soon
    sweet home
