FUNimation version

FUNimation adapted their own version of this song for the English release of the show entitled "Step by Step". Although the uncut Japanese version appears on their DVDs the song doesn't sync up quite right with the animation. This is most likely because FUNimation did not receive the licensing rights to the specific cut of the song that was used for the original version of the show, so they used the album cut instead.

{{#lyrics:Just my imagination,

While drinking the cooled tea I play around with the thread tied on my finger Let’s walk lightly to the rhythm of bossa nova Pieces of the puzzle are in my hand

That’s right, Ah- Ah- Ah- Last week I was in different clothes at the same place

Step by Step I’m not getting impatient Case by Case Even if I get laughed at I don’t mind Because across the countless days, she’s waiting I gotta go my own way

Lovers are moralists who wore extravagant dreams But somehow they’ll wake up

That’s right, Ah- Ah- Ah- Next week you’ll be in different clothes at a different place

Step by Step I should do things as to my likes Case by Case Even if it’s a roundabout way I don’t mind Because across the gray days, she’s laughing I gotta go my own way I gotta go my own way

That’s right, Ah- Ah- Ah- Next week I’ll be in different clothes at the same place

Step by Step I’m not getting impatient Case by Case I’d like to laugh and let it dissolve Because across the countless days, she’s waiting I gotta go my own way I gotta go my own way I gotta go my own way

I gotta go my own way}}

冷めかけた紅茶飲みながら 指にからむ糸を遊ばせ ボサノヴァのリズムで軽快に歩こう パズルのピースは手の中さ

そうさ　Ah-Ah-Ah- 先週も俺は違う服で違う場所に居たさ

Step by Step あせることなんてないのさ Case by Case 笑われたってかまわない 数えきれぬ日々の向こうに あいつが待っているから I gotta go my own way wow wo

恋人は贅沢な夢を着たモラリスト だけどなぜか醒めてしまう

そうさ　Ah-Ah-Ah- 来週も君は違う服で違う場所に居るさ

Step by Step 好きなようにやればいいさ Case by Case 回り道でもかまわない 灰色の日々の向こうで あいつが笑ってるから I gotta go my own way wow wo I gotta go my own way wow wo

{{#lyrics:It's just my imagination

A sort of empty concentration while I Fiddle with my fingers and take a sip of lukewarm tea Let's walk lightly to the infectious rhythm of the cool Bossa Nova And myriad puzzle pieces are here for me

That's right (right) (right) I was in the same place just last week and I ought to know, the only things changed are my clothes

Step by Step You're in control, don't be uptight Case by Case Go ahead and laugh, everything's alright Beyond the countless days and endless nights I know she patiently waits just for me but...

I gotta go my own way}}

{{#lyrics:Wie viele ungelöste Fragen liegen vor mir?

Sagt was fehlt mir noch? Welches Teil fehlt im Puzzle?

Wann finde ich endlich doch noch die Antwort Und ich frage mich, wer hilft mir? Und die Pläne, die ich hatte, fallen ins Wasser!

So lang... (lang) Warte ich mit Geduld auf die richtige Gelegenheit. Sie kommt bald hierher. Es wird Zeit.

Schritt für Schritt, ich wähle deine Nummer und ruf' dich an! Stück für Stück, kommen wir immer weiter, wir gehen jetzt ran!

Du wirst mich beschützen, wenn der Tag dann kommt. Vielleicht wartet eine Antwort schon?

Wer? Und wer weiß wie es weiter geht?}}

German translationGerman translation

{{#lyrics:How many unresolved questions lie ahead me?

Say what am I missing? Which piece is missing from the puzzle?

When I finally find the answer And I wonder, who help me? And the plans I had, are rained out!

So long... (long) I will wait patiently for the right opportunity. She's coming here soon. It's a matter of time.

Step by step, I'll dial your number and call you! Piece by piece, we keep getting on, we answer it now!

You will protect me, when the day comes, Maybe an answer is already waiting?

Who? And who knows how it continues?}}

{{#lyrics:Véxote desde a fantasía

mentres o té na cunca arrefría. A enredos mil, terémoslles que poñer fin.

Ao ritmo da Bossa nova camiño e vou contigo ben paseniño! Prás pezas que teño, só preciso enxeño!

Sete días atrás soamente era un adolescente, mais igual de sagaz e intelixente.

Paso a paso, a paciencia é unha virtude sen par. Caso a caso, vivo a vida a rir e a soñar.

Por que hoxe sei que noutro lado ela está,

esperando por min, con mi amor}}

Galician translationGalician translation

{{#lyrics:I see you from fantasy

while the tea in the cup cools. To a thousand troubles, we have to put end.

I walk at the Bossa nova rhythm and I'm going with you very slowly! For pieces I have, I just need ingenuity!

Seven days ago I was just a teenager, but sharp and intelligent alike.

Step by step, patience is an unique virtue. Case by case, I live my life between laughs and dreams.

Because today I know that on the other side she is,

waiting for me, with my love.}}
