Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

舞い落ちる粉雪が

The falling powdery snow

君のまつげに降りて

Lands on your eyelashes

泣いているような笑顔に

With a smile that seems to be crying

愛しさ募った

My love for you has grown

誰よりも幸せになって欲しい

I want you to be happier than anyone else

心からそう思った

I truly feel that way from my heart

それがもし例えばもし

If, for example,

一緒に叶えられるなら

We could make it come true together

ずっとずっと私だけの

I want it to be a love

恋でいて欲しいなんて

That is only mine forever

ワガママすぎかな

Is that too selfish?

でもねきっと君が僕の

But surely, you are

最後のたったひとりの

The last and only one for me

人だから

In this world

それなのに時々ふと

Yet sometimes, I suddenly feel

どこかもの悲しいのは

A bit melancholic

この雪と季節のせいに

Maybe I should blame

してしまおうかな

This snow and the season

世界中が私達を残して

For that feeling

どこか消えてしまったみたい

It feels like the whole world

だなんて言ったら君は

Has disappeared, leaving us behind

きっと笑うんだろうね

If I said that, you would

ずっとずっと出逢った頃の

Surely just laugh, wouldn't you?

２人でいたいなんて

I want to be with you

求めすぎてるかな

Like we were when we first met

でもねきっと君とだから

Am I asking for too much?

それさえ叶うような

But I feel that with you,

気がするよ

Even that could come true

ずっとずっと私だけの

I want it to be a love

恋でいて欲しいなんて

That is only mine forever

ワガママすぎかな

Is that too selfish?

ずっとずっと出逢った頃の

I want to be with you

２人でいたいなんて

Like we were when we first met

求めすぎてるかな

Am I asking for too much?

でもねきっと君とだから

But I feel that with you,

それさえ叶うような

Even that could come true

気がするよ

I feel that way
