バラード

• Par: ケツメイシ

Paroles:

[日本語]

[English]

涙も乾かぬ　二人なら

If we're both crying and haven't dried our tears

いっそ　君を強く抱いて

I'd rather hold you close, strong and tight

夜風に二人　溶け合うまで

Until the night breeze makes us melt together

黙ったまま　愛を伝えたい

I want to quietly tell you I love you

別れた　その夜　また夢に戻ろう

That night we said goodbye, let's go back into our dreams again

心ゆくまでも　二人で踊ろう

Let's dance together until our hearts are full

一人きりは寂しすぎて

Being alone is just too lonely

どうしようもなく　君が好きで

I can't help but love you so much

部屋に残る　君の香りが

The scent of you lingering in our room

寂しさを増す　君去った後には

After you left, it only made the loneliness grow

だから「次は君の家で」

That's why I secretly think, 'Next time, at your place'

なんて言葉　胸の中　秘めて

Hiding those words deep in my heart

逢えない夜を数えて

Counting the nights we can't meet

切なさのグラスに愛を注いで

Pouring love into a glass of longing

こんなにも愛しく想えたのは君だけ

Only you made me feel love this tenderly

僕が「逢いたい」と言ったら

When I say ‘I want to see you’

もしも　僕がそう言っていいなら

If I’m allowed to say that

でも　壊れてしまうの恐くて

But I’m afraid we might break apart

臆病な僕はそらす目

Clumsy me turns away with hesitant eyes

離れれば　離れる程に

The more we drift apart

気持ちは溢れ　流れるように

The more my feelings overflow, flowing like a stream

逢えない夜をいくつ越えて

After crossing countless lonely nights

この気持ちは　いつ　君に届ける

When will these feelings reach you?

ガラス越しに眠れない街並み

Through glass, in this sleepless city

こんな夜は君に逢いたい

On nights like this, I just want to see you

また静けさに　寄り添う程に

As I become even quieter, staying close to the silence

追いかける　甘いキスの余韻

Chasing the lingering sweetness of our kisses

記憶を越え　響くあの声

Your voice echoes beyond memory

小さく遠く夜空に溶け

Dissolving small into the distant night sky

ため息まじりのバラードじゃ踊れない

With sighs mixed in, I can't dance to this ballad

君への想い　今届けたい

Now I want to deliver my feelings to you

一人きりより　二人寄り添い

Instead of being alone, let’s stay close together

一人きりの日には　電話するよ

On lonely days, I’ll call you

寂しいくせに　何食わぬ顔で

Despite the loneliness, I watch you with a brave face

僕を見送る君が愛しくて

Your farewell makes me love you even more

逢えない夜を数えて

Counting the nights we can't meet

切なさのグラスに愛を注いで

Pouring love into the glass of longing

こんなにも愛しく想えたのは君だけ

Only you made me feel love this tenderly

君と出逢ってから僕は

Since I met you, I’ve truly felt what longing is

本当の切なさ覚えたよ

And I tremble because I want to see you

逢いたくて震える

Holding your shadow now

肩を今　押さえながら

If I hug you tight

君の影を抱きしめたなら…

And when I rest my hand on your shoulder...

一人酔いしれる

I get drunk alone

鳴らないケイタイのそば

Next to my silent phone

逢えない夜を数えて

Counting the nights we can't meet

切なさのグラスに愛を注いで

Pouring love into the glass of longing

こんなにも愛しく想えたのは君だけ

Only you made me feel love this tenderly

今も心の中で

Even now, inside my heart

電話を切ると静寂の雨

When I hang up, it's like silence and rain

「またね」と何度も響く夜の果て

Over and over, 'See you later' echoes into the night’s end

寂しさ隠して　何も言わず

Hiding my loneliness, saying nothing at all

無邪気な声には心が痛む

My innocent voice pains my heart

逢いたくても　逢えなくて

Even if I want to see you, I can't

この想いは晴れなくて

These feelings won't clear up

あぁ　夜空の向こうの神様

Oh, God beyond the night sky

時を戻して　本物の愛なら

Please turn back time, if this is true love
