Update (30 September 2023): Correction to stanza 2. Additional correction to the last stanza – thanks Vengeance!
This translation is based on a romanised form of the lyrics that appeared in a YouTube comment. I went through and tidied them up where I could and while this isn’t perfect, I think it’s much better than what we had before. It’s enough to get a general idea of the song, which is why I decided to go ahead and post it.
Please let me know if you have a copy of the original lyrics and I’ll update the translation! For now, please consider this unofficial and please don’t repost until I finalise it.
歌詞（耳コピ）
あなたを信じてずっと
歩いてた通り追いけど
ああ、今光がほら満ちてゆくから
この場所から始めようよ
何も恐くないよ そう思てたの
ふたりで生きて行きたいから
ふたり闇の中 すべて閉ざしてた
声が届かない世界
小さくなる私の背中
このまま終わると思ってた
私を照らす光はきっと あなたでさあ
でも素顔で向けていたいよ
今、救いを求めるなら
すべて包み込むよ 抱きしめたいよ
いつから光になれるかな
信じてずっと
歩いてた通り追いけど
ああ、今光がほら満ちてゆくから
この場所から始めようよ
何も恐くないよ そう思てたの
世界に光が溢れ出す

Translation
I’ll believe in you forever.
I follow the paths we walked
but, ah, light is overflowing
so let’s start from right here.
I’m not scared of anything, or so I thought
because I want to live together with you.
Together in the darkness, we shut everything away.
In this world, my voice won’t reach you
and I thought things would end like this
with me going further and further away.
You are the light illuminating me
and yet I want to face you honestly.
If you seek salvation
then I’ll wrap you up in my embrace. I want to hug you.
When will it turn to light?
I’ll believe, forever.
I follow the paths we walked
but, ah, light is overflowing
so let’s start from right here.
I’m not scared of anything, or so I thought.
Light flows forth upon the world.
