Lyrics

shoutengai no aakeido sora wo yokogiru densen no kage de tsunawatari shita
nante koto nai seikatsu no hashibashi de umareta nukumori wo wasuretaku wa nai

tama ni wa ai ni kite tama ni wa hanashi wo kikasete
tama ni wa ai ni kite tama ni wa dakishimetai

kimi wa saigo ni warattete wo nigitte kureta
sekai wa mada tsuzuiteku na no ni kimi ni mou aenai
ame ga futta ato no nioi basutei ni fuku kaze
kisetsu wa mata meguru kedo
boku wa sa kawaranaide koko ni iru yo

tama ni suru sono kao tooku ni itte shimaisou de sa
suki janakatta
demo kono te no hibiware wa kimi no tame ni dekita mono dakara
aitaku natta

kimi wa saigo ni warattete wo nigitte kureta
areta te ni kizuita na no ni kimi ni mou aenai
sumida gawa ni furu yuuhi biru no aida no gogatsu
sekai wa mada tsuzuiteku
dakara sa kawaranaide matte iru yo

English Translation

In a shopping arcade I walked the tightrope on the shadows of the electric wire stretching across the sky
Don’t want to forget the warmth found in every aspect of everyday life

Come and see me at times, come and talk to me at times
Come and see me at times, let me hug you at times

In the end, you laughed as you clasped my hand
The world goes on, but I won’t be seeing you anymore

The earthy scent after the rain, the wind that blows past the bus stop
Seasons come and go, but
I’ll remain here, the same as usual

That occasional look on your face used to make me feel like you were going far away, and I didn’t like it
But these cracks in my hands were made for you, so they made me want to see you

In the end, you laughed as you clasped my hand
Despite noticing those chapped hands of yours, we can no longer meet

The sunset over the Sumida River, the month of May between buildings
The world will continue on
That’s why I’ll be waiting here, the same as usual
