BETTER TIMES WILL COME
Japanese lyric adaptation: Takahiro Maeda, executive producer, Japan
作詞・作曲　Janis Ian  日本語詞　前田たかひろ 

Better times, better times will come
その日は　必ず来る
みんなでまるい地球と言う船漕いで行こう　 

きっと試されている　愛は幻想だろう？と
だったら今証明しよう　愛は幻想じゃない 

Better times, better times will come
その日は　必ず来る
みんなでまるい地球と言う船漕いで行こう　 

きっと試されている　船出の覚悟を
だったら見せよう証明しよう　嵐も越えよう

Better times, better times will come
今こそ　学ぶとき
みんなでまるい地球と言う船漕いで行こう　

Better times, better times will come
その日は　必ず来る
みんなでまるい地球と言う船漕いで行こう　
Oh Better times will come
