[English]

I’m sure I said I loved you centuries ago

It’s just that you forgot

I can’t remember either

I’m sure I said I loved you centuries ago

It’s just that you forgot

I can’t remember either

I passed by the road and never met

Turning back is still a mistake

You and I have never felt a collision at the street corner

Collision at the street corner

Your mother didn’t tell you

If you bump into someone, you have to say sorry

Today was supposed to be fine

Lovers missed each other

Lovers missed each other

I’m sure

Centuries ago I already said I loved you

It’s just that you forgot

I can’t remember either

I’m sure I said I loved you centuries ago

It’s just that you forgot

I can’t remember either

I passed by the road and never met

Turning back is still a mistake

You and I have never felt a collision at the street corner

Collision at the street corner

Your mother didn’t tell you

If you bump into someone, you have to say sorry

Today was supposed to be fine

Lovers missed each other

Lovers missed each other

I passed by the road and never met

Turning back is still a mistake

You and I have never felt a collision at the street corner

Collision at the street corner

Your mother didn’t tell you

If you bump into someone, you have to say sorry

Today was supposed to be fine

Lovers missed each other

Lovers missed each other

I passed by the road and never met

Turning back is still a mistake

You and I have never felt a collision at the street corner

Collision at the street corner

Your mother didn’t tell you

If you bump into someone, you have to say sorry

Today was supposed to be fine

Lovers missed each other

Lovers missed each other

I passed by the road and never met

Turning back is still a mistake

You and I have never felt a collision at the street corner

Collision at the street corner

Your mother didn’t tell you

If you bump into someone, you have to say sorry

Today was supposed to be fine

Lovers missed each other

Lovers missed each other
