Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

どんな言葉で

What words can I use

今あなたに伝えられるだろう

to convey my feelings to you now?

不器用な僕だけど

I'm clumsy, but

ちゃんとあなたに届くように

I want to reach you properly.

明日が見えなくなって

When tomorrow becomes unclear,

信じることが怖くなって

I start to fear believing.

過去を悔やんでは責めたりもしたけれど

I regretted the past and blamed myself,

僕を愛し続けてくれた人

but you continued to love me.

もしも明日世界が終わっても

Even if the world ends tomorrow,

会えない日々が続いたとしても

and even if the days of not seeing you continue,

僕はずっとあなたを想うよ

I will always think of you.

あの日僕にくれたあなたの笑顔が

Your smile that you gave me that day

生きる力と勇気をくれたんだ

gave me the strength and courage to live.

星が見えない 孤独な夜でも

Even on lonely nights when the stars are not visible,

あなたがいる ただそれだけで

just having you here makes me stronger.

強くなれる

When our eyes meet, we smile,

目が合えば笑って

and being together is so much fun.

一緒にいれば楽しくて

Every day we spent together

共に過ごした毎日は

was something irreplaceable.

かけがえのないものだった

The cold headwind is harsh,

向かい風が冷たくて

and I feel like I might forget,

忘れてしまいそうになるけど

but in the ordinary days we've passed,

通り過ぎてきた何気ない日々の中に

our happiness was surely there.

僕らの幸せは確かにあった

If I am quietly crying alone

もしも明けない夜の中で

in a night that never breaks,

一人静かに泣いているのなら

just as you believed in me,

あなたが僕を信じてくれたように

next, I will hold your hand tightly.

次は僕がその手を強く握るから

I was running away from being hurt,

傷つくことから逃げていた

but what moves this heart

この心動かすのは

is you, who never shows weakness,

弱さを見せないあなたが

and the tears you showed me for the first time.

初めて見せた涙

You once told me

いつか僕に話してくれた

about the future you envisioned,

あなたが描いた未来の中に

so that we can be together.

僕ら一緒にいられるように

With you here, any tomorrow

あなたがいることでどんな明日も

will become a light that I can walk towards.

歩いていける光になるから

Even on lonely nights when the stars are not visible,

星が見えない孤独な夜でも

I can believe that we will laugh here again.

信じられる 僕らまたここで

信じられる 僕らまたここで

笑える日を

On the days to come.
