Lyrics & Translation
Still stuck, unable to flip it
The summer day calendar
Try smiling and saying "I'm home"
I don't even know the address to send it to
So many things left behind
I can hear the sound of my heart breaking
I realize how much I loved you
I can never add to them again
Living on, embracing the memories
Day by day
At what speed should I chase
To meet you again?
The days we spent close together, the meaning of life
It was you who gave it to me
That's why I always keep thinking of you in my heart
Can you still hear my voice?
Unstopping days, a journey to meet you
Wait for me with a smile that suits you so well
The words deep in my heart that I couldn't say
Now, I can give them to you as they are
If I whisper, a distance I could reach
With fingertips at zero centimeters
I felt like I had passed it on
I wonder why, when we're apart
The words overflow
Laughing that it's too late now
I found only you, a shooting star from some time ago
I wonder what wish you were making
That day, you were looking up at
Gazing at the end of the indigo color
Day by day
Crossing the distance of billions of light-years
Like a star traveling through its light
Unchanging love, a certain light
I keep wishing until it reaches you
So, if we ever meet again someday
Let's meet in the middle of the light
So you don't get lost
I'll be waiting, shining without blinking
The warmth you gave me won't disappear
Hugging it close, I'll live on in the present
I'll call your name, day after day
I'll keep shouting, let's stay the way we were
Day by day
At what speed should I chase
To meet you again?
The days we shared, the seasons suddenly
Carry only you away to the distance
That's why I always keep thinking of you in my heart
Can you still hear my voice?
Days moving forward, every time I open my eyes
I believe I'm getting closer to fate
The words deep in my heart that I couldn't say
Now, I can give them to you as they are
No matter how much time passes, eternally
The "I love you" that won't become past tense
