手を振った後の道が寂しくなるのは The road after I wave my hand feels lonely now 00:16
君の背中が遠くなっていくほど The farther your back goes away from me 00:21
また一人きりの世界に戻っていくから The more I return alone to this world again 00:28
本当は弱くて なんて情けないから I’m really weak, I’m such a pathetic person 00:34
言えないけど でも君はきっと I can’t say it, but I believe you surely 00:40
そんな私のこと随分前から知ってたかな Knew about me long before now? 00:47
点いては消える街灯を見てた Watching streetlights that flicker then go out 00:56
心許ない灯りの中 Under this faint light 01:02
行き場を失くした冷たい右手を You held my cold, lost right hand 01:08
握ってくれた君の手が優しかった That gentle hand of yours was so kind 01:15
10年後の私はちゃんと笑えてるかな Will I be able to smile properly ten years from now? 01:21
今日まで流した涙の分も Even for the tears I’ve shed until today 01:28
拭いきれない弱さも君がくれた強さも The weakness I can't wipe away, and the strength you gave me 01:34
胸の奥 抱きしめていよう I want to hold close to my heart 01:40
01:45
「僕も同じだよ」初めて君が零した The first time you said, "I feel the same" 02:00
たくさんの後悔や痛みが All the regrets and pain you shed 02:05
小さな振動と共に私の肩に届いた Reached my shoulders along with tiny vibrations 02:12
街ですれ違う人たちも People you pass by in the city, 02:21
今隣にいてくれる君も And you, standing here beside me now 02:28
乗り越えてきた苦しみや傷痕を While carrying the pain and scars you've overcome 02:33
両手に抱えながら生きているのかな Are you living while holding those close in your arms? 02:40
丸い背中を二つ並べた夜の空に On this night sky with two rounded backs side by side 02:46
指で小さな夢を描いてみる I draw a tiny dream with my finger 02:53
熱くなっていく手を君に握り返して I hold your hand, which is getting warmer, and return the gesture 02:59
もう一度 小さく願った And once again, I make a small wish 03:05
躓きながら While stumbling 03:12
立ち止まりながら While stopping again and again 03:15
ゆっくりと歩いていく I walk slowly forward 03:18
10年前にここで見上げた夜の空を Remembering that night sky I looked up at ten years ago here 03:28
思い出しながら笑おう And smiling again 03:34
「タイムマシーンがあったら教えてあげたいよ」と If I had a time machine, I’d want to tell you 03:40
また君とこの場所で笑ってる That I’m laughing here with you again in this place 03:46
胸の奥 抱きしめていよう I want to keep hugging that chest deep inside 03:53
03:58

Lyrics & Translation

[English] The road after I wave my hand feels lonely now
The farther your back goes away from me
The more I return alone to this world again
I’m really weak, I’m such a pathetic person
I can’t say it, but I believe you surely
Knew about me long before now?
Watching streetlights that flicker then go out
Under this faint light
You held my cold, lost right hand
That gentle hand of yours was so kind
Will I be able to smile properly ten years from now?
Even for the tears I’ve shed until today
The weakness I can't wipe away, and the strength you gave me
I want to hold close to my heart

The first time you said, "I feel the same"
All the regrets and pain you shed
Reached my shoulders along with tiny vibrations
People you pass by in the city,
And you, standing here beside me now
While carrying the pain and scars you've overcome
Are you living while holding those close in your arms?
On this night sky with two rounded backs side by side
I draw a tiny dream with my finger
I hold your hand, which is getting warmer, and return the gesture
And once again, I make a small wish
While stumbling
While stopping again and again
I walk slowly forward
Remembering that night sky I looked up at ten years ago here
And smiling again
If I had a time machine, I’d want to tell you
That I’m laughing here with you again in this place
I want to keep hugging that chest deep inside
