手を繋いで帰ろうか (Te wo tsunaide kaerou ka) – Shall we hold hands and head home?
——
Have I misunderstood you about something?
You’re giving me a cold look, shaking your head, Oh
I mean, I haven’t told anyone
Because they would keep asking more about you
Yes, it was troublesome, so I pretended not to be interested
And kept looking the other way, away from you
But my heart is focused and interested only in you
The way you stirred your ice cafe latte
With your straw
Why do you somehow look so gloomy? Sorry
I’ve done it wrong
Shall we hold hands and head home?
It’s ok even if someone sees
Let’s walk down the street boldly
And show off to everyone
That you and I are in love
And are dating
Let’s make up and go back
To how we always are
If hiding this silly embarrassment
Has hurt you
Before we reach home
Let me atone for my mistake
What should I do to fill up
That gaping hole in your heart?
On that street corner
Let’s kiss
Suddenly, you left the cafe
I immediately gave chase in a panic, Oh
Everyone was shocked by such an outcome
Looking at each other and asking, “did I say something wrong?”
Yes, these indelicate guy friends
Have made you really angry
That you won’t even turn around when I called your name
As you crossed the road
With steps quicker than usual
Could it be that you’re crying? Oh dear
Listen to me!
Let’s hold hands and head home
Everyone is on the other side
Watching over us
As we notice their gaze…
Let us make light of
This boring quarrel
Let us walk on like this
To everywhere
No matter what rumors come about
So that others will envy us…
Believe me once more
And come closer
If you don’t understand my words
Then there’s no other way
Right now, here
Let’s kiss
Shall we hold hands and head home?
It’s ok even if someone sees
Let’s walk down the street boldly
And show off to everyone
That you and I are in love
And are dating
Let’s make up and go back
To how we always are
If hiding this silly embarrassment
Has hurt you
Before we reach home
Let me atone for my mistake
What should I do to fill up
That gaping hole in your heart?
On that street corner
Let’s kiss
