English Translation

In the midst of all this time I’ve whiled away
I remember you
In the image I gaze at in melancholy, the two people
Are laughing

The things I know too much
that I don't wish to know of anymore are swallowed up by these mundane passing days
But even so, I just want to meet you one more time

I, who accepted and believed in your words, have been left behind, overtaken by time
The future I should have been able to see has slipped through the spaces between my fingers too
The pieces of those days we can’t return to, and traces of you, I still end up searching for them
I’m still reaching for the two people from those days

I drew the boundaries myself
Pretending not to see the truth 
That kind of me
Can’t see it, can’t see it
Even though the vibrant flowers
Blooming on the other side of the boundary
Are actually visible to me

Unknowingly, 
I locked the door to my worn-down, worn-out heart
In there, there is no beauty
Only I have been left behind
The too-blue sky burns the back of my eyelids
Returning to the sights of that day,
To bring back that me who you said you loved

Not showing anyone
The feelings I’ve hidden 
That are still living inside me 
If I try closing my eyes
Reflected in the same vibrant scenery and
The pieces of those days we can’t return to
Is the future,
enclosed as though within a bud
I start drawing it once again

Your words from that day
And the beautiful times
And the scenery we saw together
Connect the forgotten feelings with
The future that should have been lost
I walk the path that follows those unreturnable days
From now on, even without you
If I were to wave my hand to those two from that day
Surely they would start moving
Towards the future
