English Translation

Laughing with you after school
I don't even care about my hair
I match my steps with yours
On the road at dusk
"Wanna grab some food?"
"Sounds good, I want ice cream"
"I'm not treating you"
"I know"

You're always to my left
And I'm to your right
If it's the other way around,
We say, "Something's not right!"
Before we knew it,
We became like this
More than friends
More than lovers

At times we fight
"I don't wanna see your face," I lie
"Whatever!" you say and push me away
But I still can't say I'm sorry
I go home alone
And dive into bed depressed
Let's make up before today ends
Our messages show as read
"I'm sorry"

We laugh together
I could never hate you
When the guy of my dreams shows up,
I bet he'll be jealous of you
Yeah, right
Stay by my side

The kind of person I'd like
And the kind you'd like
They're nothing alike
We can't understand each other's type
"But that way,
We won't have to fight over them"
You joking about that
Was the best

I can live without you
The sun will rise no matter what
But days without you
Are like miso soup without tofu
You'd probably be like,
"What are you talking about?"
But I'm dead serious
Our eyes meet
"How stupid"

If we laugh together
We can forget all the bad things
When the guy of your dreams shows up,
I bet he'll be jealous of me
Yeah, right
Stay by my side

Let's laugh together
Years and years from now
It's okay if we never
Promise to stay together
After all,
I'm by your side
