Lyrics & Translation
Pretending not to notice, I looked away
The bravado I've unconsciously acquired
The cowardice that I can't shake off fills my chest
Ah, I must have dropped it somewhere
Yet it's certainly here now
Deep in my heart, it's loud enough
Clashing and surfacing
Meeting you, we build irreplaceable moments together
One day, the feelings of loving someone I had forgotten
Are painful, bittersweet, yet warm
Every scene is dazzlingly beautiful
I wonder what you're doing
I recall trivial conversations
Every time your smile comes to mind
The sound of my heart that I can't suppress echoes
If I were alone, I wouldn't have noticed
That I can grow stronger by thinking of someone
Before I knew it, I was reflecting your figure
While unable to be honest, it keeps swelling
It's painful, bittersweet, yet warm
I realized that you are within me
The path I've chosen, even while stumbling
If even one thing had been different
I would never have met you
Thinking that way, it's not so bad
The colors of the town, even on rainy days, shine so bright
Because this heart that thinks of you
Is tightly embracing it
Meeting you, we build irreplaceable moments together
The happiness we find, connecting and weaving together
The joy of holding hands, laughing, and spending our days
I want to feel it by your side forever
I love you
