[English]

You, that voice is playing

the melody of goodbye

I can't even pretend it's vague

You, like an ordinary drama

the ring you offered

rolls sadly on the staff

Tonight, tonight, these feelings

even the pain, everything

Tonight, lock it in my heart

so it won't fade away

(Every day, every night, I loved you)

(Every day, every night) even if it's all in the past

(I will never forget)

I can't forget, you are still on my mind

You, I understand in my head, those tears

what they mean

like a piano with only black and white

You, the fingertips that held me are wandering and trembling

Back then, we melted together so much

Good night, good night, it won't end

deep like a dream

Good night, at least let me sleep

with that smile of yours

(Every day, every night, I loved you)

(Every day, every night) even if it's a lie

(Will I ever forget your smile?)

Can I forget? you are still on my mind

I don't wanna hurt you (hurt you)

I don't wanna lose you

You don't know what I feel

You'll never know this pain, missing you

Tonight, tonight, these feelings

even the pain, everything

Tonight, lock it in my heart so it won't fade away

(Every day, every night, I loved you)

(Every day, every night) everything about you

(I will never forget)

I can't forget, you are still on my mind

(Every day, every night, I loved you)

(Every day, every night)

(I will never forget)

[Japanese]

You その声が奏でてる

サヨナラのメロディーを

曖昧に誤魔化すことも出来ずに

You ありふれたドラマみたい

差し出したその指輪

寂しげに五線譜の上転がる

Tonight, tonight この想い

痛みさえもすべて

Tonight 心に鍵をかけて

色褪せぬように

(Every day, every night 愛してたよ)

(Every day, every night) すべて過去でも

(ずっとずっと 忘れないよ)

忘れられない you are still on my mind

You 頭ではわかってる その涙

その意味を

黒か白 それしかないピアノのように

You 抱き寄せた指先が彷徨って震えてた

あの頃はあんなに溶け合ってたのに

Good night, good night 終わらない

夢のように深く

Good night せめて眠らせてくれ

その微笑みで

(Every day, every night 愛してたよ)

(Every day, every night) たとえ嘘でも

(いつか君の笑顔さえも)

忘れられる? you are still on my mind

I don't wanna hurt you (hurt you)

I don't wanna lose you

You don't know what I feel

You'll never know this pain, missin' you

Tonight, tonight この想い

痛みさえもすべて

Tonight 心に鍵をかけて色褪せぬように

(Every day, every night 愛してたよ)

(Every day, every night) 君のすべてを

(ずっとずっと 忘れないよ)

忘れられない You are still on my mind

(Every day, every night 愛してたよ)

(Every day, every night)

(ずっとずっと 忘れないよ)
