[English]

It finally dawned on me just now

But foolish me, it's much too late somehow

The love you gave while at my side

I always took for granted far and wide

All I could ever see were things that bothered me

You said "I'm not sure I like you" setting yourself free

Yet everything I recalled about your way

Was cherished moments night and day

Meeting day's clear in my mind like yesterday's affair

You'd scold whenever formal words filled the air

From our casual banter back to polite speech

When today ends, strangers beyond reach

The outward formalities complete, back to strangers we return

Even decades, centuries pass, I want to be with you

I'll tell you like I always do

Since it's not the end, I'll say it true

"I was so in love with you"

Before opening these lying eyes, we'd picked the sofa shade

"White's my favorite" you declared hastily, plans we prematurely made

Well, undisciplined as we are, we'll keep it clean somehow

Though honestly, I wanted it stained from use anyhow

It feels like tears might overflow

No, the truth is they already pour

Another bad habit of mine you'd hate, pretending strength once more

Our shared home, that stylish cafe

These memories just won't fade away

Should've never used casual words that day

From polite speech back to the old confide

Just for today, to journey back inside

Make it true

Only formality sails the wind that blew

Though decades, centuries pass, I'd be with you

Seems impossible now, so I'll confess

Since it's truly the end, I'll express

"I was so in love with you"

[Japanese]

今さらになって気づきました

バカな僕じゃもう遅すぎました

隣で君がくれる愛情は

当たり前だなんて思ってました

ずっと嫌なとこばかりが見えました

好きか分かんないって振られました

でも君を思い出す内容は

全部好きな所ばかりでした

昨日のことのように出会った日を覚えてる

敬語を使うとよく怒ってきたね

タメ口から敬語に

今日が終わりゃ知らない人に

戻っていく形だけ今元通り

何十年,何百年経ったって君といたいから

いつもみたく言うよ

最後じゃないし言うよ

「大好きでした」

嘘ついた目を開ける前に決めてたねソファの色

私が好きな白がいいって気が早いねなんとも

ま、僕ら二人だらし無いし汚さないよ頑張ろう

今となっちゃ見りゃ汚れるまで使いたかった何度でも

涙が溢れそうです

いや本当は溢れています

これも君が嫌な癖強がってしまいます

二人の家 おしゃれな店

思い出は消えなくて

タメ口なんて使わなきゃよかったな

敬語からタメ口に

今日だけでも戻りたい

叶えて

形だけずっと戻らない

何十年,何百年経ったって君といたいけど

無理そうだし言うよ

最後だから言うよ

「大好きでした」
