Lyrics & Translation
The main star is, of course, you.
I'm the supporting actor, director, and cameraman.
It's a story about a movie made with the film deep inside my eyes. Ah
If you laughed and called it silly,
Then my opening worked perfectly!
Don't get bored yet, just wait a moment.
I'm sure you'll like it.
Here's a quick recap of what's happened so far.
The tears from the night we first fought.
It personally hurts my heart, but
Let's keep watching it.
Saying "I'm sorry," making up, holding hands...
Look, the scene where you smile here is the highlight, you know. Ah
In that tiny gesture that can't even be captured in a photo,
Moments that can turn around even the darkest story are overflowing.
Cut out one of them,
Let's make it the thumbnail, for now.
Surely in about 10 years,
The cast will probably increase, too.
Even now, I barely have any leeway,
With such a low salary, it's already too much to handle!
I'll probably show countless pathetic moments.
Even on the day our surnames become one,
Even on days when nothing seems to change,
Dear days, precious days.
So I don't let them escape, so I don't forget them,
I'll burn them into my memory.
Now, squinting our eyes and feeling shy,
For us who wished for eternity,
When misunderstandings and depressing developments
Try to tear us apart,
I'll sing this song over and over again, loud enough to be annoying.
So please, stay by my side.
Because I don't want to make an end roll anymore.
When the shoot wraps up,
We can't decide.
So let's just go where the wind takes us.
I've prepared the film.
A lifetime's worth of length.
Roughly 1.15 million kilometers.
Look, the scene where you smile here is the highlight, you know. Ah
In that tiny gesture that can't even be captured in a photo,
Moments that can turn around even the darkest story are overflowing.
Cut out one of them,
Let's make it the thumbnail.
Come on, let's go look for the great scenes that are yet to be born.
Embracing both the bitter and the sweet,
Let's experience them together until the film runs out.
Let's keep shooting as long as this life lasts.

Key Grammar Structures

きっと気に入ってもらえると思うな
➔ V-te morau (passive/receiving a favor) and Tō omou (to think/expect)
➔ The structure "V-te morau" indicates receiving a favor or action from someone. Here, the speaker expects the listener to "like" (気に入る) something, implying the speaker "receives" that positive feeling. "Tō omou na" expresses the speaker's thought or expectation, with "na" adding a casual, slightly emphatic tone.
-
そのまま見続けよう
➔ V-tsuzukeru (continue to V) + Volitional form (yō)
➔ "V-tsuzukeru" indicates the continuation of an action. The volitional form "yō" expresses the speaker's intention or a proposal to do something. Together, it means "Let's continue to watch/keep watching [as is]".
-
写真にも映せやしないとっても些細なその仕草に
➔ V+ya shinai (emphatic negative)

➔ "V-tari suru" is used to list a few examples of actions without being exhaustive, implying there might be other similar actions. "Darō" indicates conjecture or probability, meaning "probably will" or "I suppose".
