Lyrics & Translation
Accepting secrets and the past, holding everything inside
Like a fine thread connecting us
That’s surely, like destiny
Clumsy words, like an imperfect love letter
One day, I’ll definitely give it to you
Love takes many forms, after all
It’s just that there were so many things I couldn’t see
Cherish each one, carefully
Turn them all into songs, hey, listen
The days you threw away
Even the closed-off future, I can change it
Even with just one petal’s worth of feelings
I’ll turn them into words and send them back to you
You, who are different from me
There’s a different me from you
Even if the direction of tomorrow we point to is different
I’ll follow you
Like a thin membrane covering us
Everything still seemed like fate to me
A single dried flower without water
If I could just say one thing
Righteousness has always been in the way
Looking for a season like a sparkle
Before love becomes a promise
Hold everything inside
If you still say that’s kindness
If you still call that love
Even feelings in draft form
I’ll turn them into words and send them back to you
Now, as our hands touch, the pain from hurting each other
Couldn’t forget just like that, I couldn’t forgive it
The threads of feelings woven with pain are coming loose
The warmth of the hand I touched
Feels just like a gentle sunlit spot
Petals fall
Because I want to tell you before that
There’s a different you from me
And there’s a different me from you
Staring deep in the eyes
Even if everything has no meaning
Until our hands擦れて, until wounds appear
Until I touch the end of my dreams
In each word I weave
Even if it’s meaningless
Vivid and graceful, remaining beautiful as ever
Surely, it’s okay if our feelings aren’t the same
Let’s keep looking at the same future, always together
