The Ending theme for Professor Layton and the Last Time Travel, ''Jikan Ryokou'', by Ann Sally. The song is not present in the Original Soundtrack for the game, and was instead released as a Single.
"The bell that carves time is sounding The town where past and future come and go is crumbling and fading in passing time. I remember the warmth I felt when holding your hand. There is nothing that stays forever unchanged Happiness and sadness, both pass with time After tears overflow and fall to the ground, A gentle light should shine. At the beginning of the new days, I raise my head and feel the wind on my face. I leap with you into this time travel And set sail. The hearbeats of life resound Where light and shadows come and go. In the passing, unstoppable time I still believe in this warmth I know is real. There is nothing that will never change Wind blows and seasons pass. In the rift between the clouds of sadness There should be a colorful and vivid world At the beginning of the new days, I raise my head and feel the wind on my face. I leap with you into this time travel And set sail into this limitless journey." (I did this translation myself. English isn't my first language so I hope my grammar isn't too awkward !)
That's really too bad they didn't include this song in the European version of the game, it is so beautiful... I remember listening to it in a loop after I finished the game. This song fits the ending of the game perfectly.

Idk if it’s been confirmed that this song is in Layton’s pov and if it is about about him and Claire’s time together but that’s what I always thought it was
It’s been more than 10 yrs since I first encountered to this song. I still listen to it n makes me cry sometimes... And I’m sure it will continue to exist in my life ahead. Thank you to all those who created it🙏🏻😌 P.S. Im keep trying to search it on Spotify, Apple music, or even in Karaoke.. but,,, you’ll NEVER find it. someone gotta tell me why is that 🥲🥲🥲 wish this song could be next “Mayonaka no Door” phenomenon🙃
