あの日交わした約束は

The promise we made that day

薬にも毒にもなって 今日も胸しめつける

Has become both my medicine and my poison, squeezing my heart even today.

少しでも近づきたい

I want to get even a little closer

さみしい夜はせめて声を 聴かせてよ

On lonely nights, at least let me hear your voice

ただそれだけで また強くなれるはず

Just that alone should make me stronger again

眠れないほど募るんだ

It grows so much I can't sleep

こんなに真っ直ぐな気持ち

These feelings so straightforward

きみへと続く 夜空見上げて

Looking up at the night sky that leads to you

手を伸ばした

I reached out my hand

いますぐ会いに来てよ ダーリン

Come see me right now, darling

届けて 永遠のI love You

Believing in what you can't see

目を伏せて紛らわすのも いい加減違うよね

Pretending by averting my eyes, that's not right anymore, is it?

I can't find any meaning in it
