Lyrics & Translation
It shakes my heart too strongly
I looked at you seriously
I miss you
Days of tumbling around
Pretending to be pitiful
I tried to be lazy
But the light of hope
Keeps shining right in front of me
I'm happy
You in the straw hat
Looks like the swaying marigold
That was in the summer when the sky was still blue
The love from that day made me smile nostalgically
“Don’t leave me anymore,”
You look at me with tearful eyes
Gently, like a cloud, I hold you tight
Embracing you, embracing you, I won’t let go
All my true feelings
Aren't strong enough to be fully expressed
But strangely enough
I can't see despair
The silhouette that always reflects in my eyes
I love you so much
We share our soft skin
The slightly cold air, just the two of us
Walking on this day, we savor it
Talking about what name we should give it
Ah, the words "I love you" aren't enough
So I kiss you
Because the clouds still leave our shadows
Forever, forever, just like this
Even if we are far away
I want to stay connected
I hope our feelings
Are the same
You in the straw hat
Looks like the swaying marigold
That was in the summer when the sky was still blue
The love from that day made me smile nostalgically
“Don’t leave me anymore,”
You look at me with tearful eyes
Gently, like a cloud, I hold you tight
I won’t let go
Ah, the words "I love you" aren't enough
So I kiss you
Because the clouds still leave our shadows
Forever, forever, just like this
I won’t let go
Ah, forever, forever, I won’t let go
Thank you
