Let’s say that if we can no longer meet
And we were told that we can’t change that, will you give up?

Even though we are tired of living these false days
Because it allows us to be together, there’s nothing else we can do
Holding hands and walking through the city like normal people
I dream about that. That’s all I want, but…

Let’s say that if we can no longer meet
And we were told that we can’t change that, will you give up?

Again, I tried to think about whether I’m living for someone
And I realized that the path has opened up a little
But you are too kind, and I fear that
You may not be able to tell me your true feelings

Let’s say that if we can no longer meet
And we were told that we can’t change that, will you give up?
Let’s say that if we can no longer meet
Will you forget everything as the days go by?

Let’s say that if we can no longer meet
And we were told that we can’t change that, can you give up?
Unlike me, who can only see the present
Do you feel uneasy when you think about the future?

La La La La La…

Someday, someday, surely
We can be together…

例えばこのまま会わなくなっても
それも仕方のない事と言って あなたは諦めるの?

いつわりの日々を続けるのも そろそろ疲れてきたけど
それで一緒にいられるのなら 仕方ないね
普通に手をつなぎながら 街を歩きたくて
そんなことを夢見てる それだけなのに…

例えばこのまま会わなくなっても
それも仕方のない事と言って あなたは諦めるの?

誰のために生きているのかを もう一度考えてみた
少し道が開けてきそうな気がしたけど
優し過ぎる人だから 本当のところの
気持ち言えないのかなって思うと怖い

例えばこのまま会わなくなっても
それも仕方のない事と言って あなたは諦めるの?
例えばこのまま会わなくなったら
やがて月日が流れて全てを忘れさせてくれるの?

例えばこのまま会わなくなっても
それも仕方のない事と言って あなたは諦められるの?
今しか見てない私と違って
これから先の事考えるとあなたは不安になる?

La La La La La…

いつの日か いつの日か きっと
一緒にいられるよね…

Your side profile
Is so beautiful, it’s saddening
I could not say a word
And I realized my tears were flowing

Surely, more than anyone had imagined
You have been hurt, you are tired
I’m sorry I didn’t realize that

Embraced by the spring wind, dreaming a distant dream
Breaking up the summer clouds, everything has disappeared
The autumn sky is sorrowful, the winter sea is cold
Time has passed, just like in a dream

You have gone through
So many things
And then, you are here now
I’m proud of that, every single day

People surely hold on to
Memories and feelings they can’t voice out
As they live on

There are times when we go the long way and exhaust ourselves
But in the end, in the place where we reach…
Just having you beside me heals my heart
And I wish to become such a support someday too

Embraced by the spring wind, dreaming a distant dream
Breaking up the summer clouds, everything has disappeared
The autumn sky is sorrowful, the winter sea is cold
Time has passed, just like in a dream

君のその横顔が
悲しい程キレイで
何ひとつ言葉かけられなくて
気付けば涙あふれてる

きっとみんなが思っているよりずっと
キズついてたね 疲れていたね
気付かずにいてごめんね

春の風包まれて 遥かな夢描いて
夏の雲途切れては 消えていった
秋の空切なくて 冬の海冷たくて
夢中になっていく程 時は経っていたね

たくさんの出来事を
くぐり抜けてきたんだ
そして今ココにいる君の事
誇りに思う いつの日も

人ってきっと言葉にならない様な
思い出だとか 気持ちを抱え
そうして生きていくんだね

遠回りばかりして疲れる時もあるね
だけど最後にたどり着く場所って・・・
そばにいるだけでただ 心が癒されてく
そんな支えにいつか なりたいと願うよ

春の風包まれて 遥かな夢描いて
夏の雲途切れては 消えていった
秋の空切なくて 冬の海冷たくて
夢中になっていく程 時は経っていたね

I have never counted the days since the time we first met
But I realize that we have spent quite some time together
Whenever the night seems to defeat me, I will always call you
“Shall I go over to you now?” With just these words, you save me

Is it because we came from similar backgrounds, with similar experiences?
Because it’s unbelievable how close you feel to me

Sorry for always relying on you, even though I can’t do anything
I wish harder than anyone else, for the dream in your heart to come true
I wish that you will be happy with that person you love…

When everything that I’ve kept in myself was suddenly released
You were at my side to share in my tears and smiles

Repeatedly meeting and separating, as many times as there are stars
I lost so much more than I gained then, but I’m different now

Even though I’ve always relied on you, I’ll protect you this time
I know that you are really not that strong, and cannot be alone
I wish that you will be able to laugh with that person you love…

出会いからどれ位経つのかは 数えたことないけど
もう随分一緒に過ごしている気がするよ
夜に負けそうな日は 電話してしまういつも
“今からすぐそこへ行こうか”と その言葉だけで救われる

同じ環境で似た様な経験積んで来ているからかな
不思議な程 君の事を近くに感じられる

いつも頼ってばかりごめんね 何にも出来ない私だけど
胸に描いたその夢いつか 叶うのを誰より祈っている
君が大好きなあの人と 幸せになれますように…

ずっとためてたものが 急に溢れ出した時
隣にいた君まで一緒にもらい泣きして笑っていた

星の数程の 出会いと別れを繰り返し
あの頃まだ失うモノの方が多かったけど今は違う

いつも頼ってばかりだけれど 今度は私が守るからね
ホントは君も強くはないし 一人じゃいられない事も知った
君が大好きなあの人と 笑っていられるように…

It’s always easy to cry, but I want to smile
I want your love

My real self is slowly growing dim
In the midst of the pressing crowd, I was searching without an answer
As I get better at telling lies and excuses
I grow afraid of emptiness

It’s always easy to cry, but I want to smile
If I act tough, I’ll even forget
Gentleness, so I want to be weak
I want your love

Everyone is always
Creatures who live alone
That’s why we all need someone
Whom we can support, and who can support us
And though nothing is definite
We have believing hearts

If I can find one precious thing, I will protect it
If I hit a wall that’s too high
I just need to bear the wound and stand up again
I don’t wish for anything else
Just that one thing is enough
I want your love

いつだって泣く位簡単だけど 笑っていたい
あなたの愛が欲しいよ

ホントの自分の姿が 少しずつぼやけ出してる
押し寄せる人波の中 答え出せないまま探していた
ウソや言い訳 上手になる程
むなしさに恐くなるよ

いつだって泣く位簡単だけど 笑っていたい
強がってたら優しささえ
忘れちゃうから素直になりたい
あなたの愛が欲しいよ

人はみんないつだって
ひとりぼっちな生きモノ
だからそう誰かが必要
支えられたくて支えていたくて
確かなモノは何もないけれど
信じてる心がある

大切なモノひとつみつけられたら守り通そう
高すぎるカベぶつかったら
キズを負ったらまた立てばいい
他には何も望まないから
たったひとつそれだけでいい
あなたの愛が欲しいよ

When I was able to smile from my heart and feel satisfied
I could not realize my own happiness
I can’t go back now, even though that summer is so nostalgic
Because I was the one who let go of your thin, but strong hand

Because you are precious, I could not realize
I almost lost you, but
Again and again, I’ll say this to you
“You are the only one in this world”

My eyes showed me the season was changing, and the wind blew
I was frightened because you felt a little far away
When we were still together, we loved and cried in earnest
Compared to now, we were easily hurt then, but we surely shone

When we find something we can believe in
We’ll surely try to reach it with our hands
Again and again, I’ll say this to you
“Even apart, you are truly my friend”

Looking up at the blue sky on a clear day
Kicking at puddles on a rainy day
Again and again, I’ll understand
The reason I was born, the meaning of life

On painful days when sorrow seems to defeat me
Even when I want to run into the night
Again and again, those days with you
Give me support as I remember them

心から笑えて満たされる時には
自分の幸せに気付くことできてなかったよ
もう戻ることはできない あの夏なつかしくなっても
細くてでも強いその手 離したの私だから

大切なひとだから気付かなくて
見失いないそうになるけれど
くり返しくり返し言い聞かせるよ
「この世界に君はひとりしかいない」

季節の変わり目を告げる風が吹いて
君を少し遠く感じる自分におびえたよ
ふたりまだ一緒にいた頃 真剣に恋して泣いたね
今よりキズつきやすくて でもきっと輝いてた

信じられそうなものみつかったら
必ず手を伸ばしてみよう
くり返しくり返し言い聞かせるよ
「離れてても胸の奥で友達だよ」

晴れた日は青空を見上げながら
雨の日は水たまりけって
くり返しくり返し知っていくよ
生まれた理由(わけ) 生きる意味を

切なさに負けそうで苦しい日も
夜に逃げ込みたくなっても
くり返しくり返し 君との日々
思い出して支えにして

If I suddenly disappear from this place now
Will you search for me alone?
Until you find me, can I believe
That people are kind, as I wait for you?

Becoming an adult, or
Being an innocent child
Which one is more painful?
I’ll stop asking such questions
If you will bloom

If we are in this city, in the midst of moving crowds
Will you listen to me alone?
Continuing on, never stopping
Will this scream reach someone?

Even while knowing that you will wilt someday
You grow beautiful so you will be loved
Reaching out and growing straight
Just what kind of courage is needed to do that?

Becoming an adult, or
Being an innocent child
Which one is more painful?
I’ll stop asking such questions
If you will bloom

Even while knowing that you will wilt someday
You stand proud even when you are stepped on
Reaching out and growing straight
Just what kind of power is needed to do that?

To repeat days which have passed, or
To look forward to tomorrow
Which one is more frightening?
I’ll stop asking such questions
If you will bloom

例えば今 急にここから姿を消したら
一人くらい探そうとしてくれたりしますか
見つかるまで 人は優しいものと
信じながら 待ってていいのですか

大人になっていくことと
無邪気な子供でいるのは
どっちが辛いことですか
そんな質問はやめましよう
あなたが咲くのなら

人ごみで溢れ返すこの街にいたなら
一人くらい聞く耳持ってくれたりしますか
続いて行く いつまでも終わらない
この叫びは 誰かに届きますか

いつか散ること知りながら
愛されて ただ美しく
まっすぐに伸びて行くのは
どんな勇気がいりますか

大人になっていくことと
無邪気な子供でいるのは
どっちが辛いことですか
そんな質問はやめましよう
あなたが咲くのなら

いつか散ること知りながら
踏まれても ただ誇らしく
まっすぐに伸びて行くのは
どんな力がいりますか

過ぎた日々 振り返るのと
明日に期待をするのは
どっちが怖いことですか
そんな質問はやめましよう
あなたが咲くのなら
