Lyrics & Translation
Our time is starting to move towards the future
I was gripping my phone like I was holding your hand
Words on fingertips aren't enough, this feeling is...
If I put it into words, it's a common phrase
But my hands tremble as I type
Releasing a barrage of words while lying face down
I clutch them tightly again today
In the passing days with spinning feelings
Just closing my eyes let me feel you
Like sleeping in a dream
Being next to you is warm
No matter where I am, even in the middle of the night
I'm thinking about you
The reason why I want to see you
I convert it, then delete it again
Just by saying I want to see you
How many hours have passed?
Being by your side makes me invincible
I become fearless
But when I'm alone
I want to hear your voice
I'll become strong for you
I can do my best even when things are hard, but when I want to cry
I want to see your smile
The reason why I want to see you
If it's because I'm in love with you
The reason why I can't say I want to see you
Is because love is too fleeting
I can't stop anymore, even if this encounter is a mistake
Even if a fate of parting continues into the future
I want to become myself in a way that suits you more than anyone else
But all I'm getting good at is fake smiles and lies
Becoming silent in my room alone
Everything is frustrating
The reason I can't sleep while hugging my knees
Is because I want to hear your voice
I'm becoming weak because of you
I can't walk alone anymore, but I'm always acting strong
Because I want to see your smile
The reason why I want to see you
I convert it, then delete it again
Just by saying I want to see you
How many hours have passed?
The reason why I want to see you
If it's because I'm in love with you
The reason why I can't say I want to see you
Is because love is too fleeting
