ねぇ 言いかけた

Hey, I was about to say

昨日のごめんも

I'm sorry for yesterday

頼り甲斐のない相槌も

Even the unreliable responses

裏側で泣いてる I love you

I love you, crying on the inside

気にしてないって嘘はつけたけど

I could lie and say I don't care

たまに胸騒ぐのもわかってよ

But sometimes I want you to understand my heart's unrest

好きが募ってローラーコースター

My feelings are growing like a roller coaster

回って揺れて落ちて君に届くかな

Spinning, shaking, falling, will it reach you?

今夜の恋模様

Tonight's love pattern

流れる星うららかな

The flowing stars are gentle

言葉のつづきを贈るよ

I'll send you the continuation of my words

Hey, look at me baby

Hey, look at me baby

I'm crazy about you

I say, I love you

I say, I love you

僕の瞳にずっといて

Stay in my eyes forever

来世でも 前世でも

In the next life or the past life

I've always wanted to see you

I'm crazy about you

四六時中

All the time

I'll call your name

Will you stay with me forever?

Will you stay with me forever?

月夜照らされる横顔

Your profile illuminated by the moonlight

見惚れる時間がもっと欲しいよ

I want more time to be captivated

心に君映るたび

Every time you reflect in my heart

Make me hot

Make me hot

正直になれずにずっと

Unable to be honest all this time

Torn in love

Torn in love

ただいまとおかえり

Welcome home and I'm back

幸せ跳ね返し

Happiness bounces back

傍らにさりげなく咲いた

A love flower that bloomed casually by my side

恋の花

Always together

ずっと一緒

Words aren't necessary

言葉はいらないよ

Because I remember deep in my heart

心のもっと奥で覚えてるから

心のもっと奥で覚えてるから

Key Grammar Structures

• ねぇ 言いかけた 昨日のごめんも

  ➔ Verb in past tense + かけた (kaketa)

  ➔ 言"いかけた" (iikaketa) means 'started to say' or 'was about to say'. The verb 言う (iu - to say) is conjugated to the past tense 言った (itta), and then かける (kakeru - to start doing) is attached, indicating an action that was initiated but not completed.

• 好きが募ってローラーコースター

  ➔ Verb + て (te) form + 募る (tsunoru)

  ➔ 募って (tsunotte) means 'to grow stronger' or 'to intensify'. The verb 募る (tsunoru) means to increase, and it's used here in the て-form to connect it to the previous phrase. The literal translation is 'love intensifies'.

• 回って揺れて落ちて君に届くかな

  ➔ Verb + て (te) form sequence + かな (kana)

  ➔ This line uses a series of verbs in the て-form (回って, 揺れて, 落ちて) to describe a sequence of actions. かな (kana) is a particle added to the end of a sentence to express a question or doubt to oneself, like 'I wonder'.

• 言葉のつづきを贈るよ

  ➔ Verb (dictionary form) + よ (yo)

  ➔ 贈るよ (okuruyo) - The particle よ (yo) is used at the end of a sentence to emphasize a statement or to indicate that the speaker is telling the listener something they may not know. It adds a sense of assurance or emphasis.

• 僕の瞳にずっといて

  ➔ Noun + に (ni) + verb (て (te) form) + いて (ite)

  ➔ いて (ite) is the te-form of いる (iru) meaning "to be". "ずっといて (zutto ite)" means "stay forever". 僕の瞳に (boku no hitomi ni) means "in my eyes". This grammar expresses a request for someone to remain in a certain state or place.

• ずっと会いたくて

  ➔ Verb (たい form) + て (te) + Adjective

  ➔ 会いたくて (aitakute) is formed from 会いたい (aitai), which means "want to meet," and the て (te) form changes the adjective-like 会いたい (aitai) into an adverbial form, indicating a reason or cause for the following action or emotion. ずっと (zutto) is an adverb meaning "always".

• ちゃんと言うから ねぇ聞いて

  ➔ Adverb + Verb (plain form) + から (kara) + ねぇ (nee) + Verb (te form)

  ➔ 言うから (iukara) means "because I'll say it". The から (kara) indicates a reason or cause. ねぇ (nee) is used to get someone's attention. 聞いて (kiite) means "listen". This grammar pattern expresses a reason followed by a request or instruction.

• その涙と一緒に 溢れ落ちそうな祈り

  ➔ Verb (ます stem) + そう (sou) + な (na) adjective

  ➔ 溢れ落ちそう (afureochisou) means "looks like it will spill/overflow". そう (sou) expresses conjecture based on appearance. It's used to describe something that seems like it's about to happen. When followed by a な-adjective, it modifies the adjective. 溢れ落ちそう (afureochisou) describes the state of 祈り (inori- prayer)
