English Translation

Softly breathed out a sigh and breathed it back in regrets leave a bitter aftertaste
Always why? The next day appears before saying the most important things

A fate I've gotten sick of, if I sliced it up with a knife
and did it all over again, I may not meet you

As soon as my voice resonates the heart counts down the time limit on life
Over and over they're answered but the wishes never stop
Sweat poured as I ran the world's second hand to the clock will one day leave me behind when I stop
How many more times can I laugh with you?
I'm being tested Catch the Moment

Every additional piece of happiness makes me fearful of the changing future

Let's nurture the seeds of love with care
Even these thick clouds will we break through them one day?

Your voice resonated travelling through my entire body knocking on the door to my heart
Even if I'm a coward, I can't help opening the door 'cause I want to believe
Though I thought there was nothing at my footsteps, I found a few roots tucked deep into the soil
Though stormy nights may come, I won't waver

Time and time again
I've chased after you, caught up to you, sometimes I've lost sight of who you are 
Just having our breaths match up fills me with delight
All of the seconds I've collected, could I turn them I into eternity?

As soon as my voice resonates the heart counts down the time limit on life
Over and over they're answered but the wishes never stop
Sweat poured as I ran the world's second hand to the clock will one day leave me behind when I stop
How many more times can I laugh with you?
I'm being tested Catch the Moment

I won't miss my chance
I'll catch this moment Catch the Moment
