Lyrics

renai ima mo tokimeite asa me ga sameru koto
atsui koohii de sukoshi yakedo shita koto
tsutaetakunaru kimochi

shousetsu kizuiteiru no yo koko no tokoro anata ga
kirai da to itteta rabu sutoorii yonderu koto
atashi mo ne nibukunai no

omoide wo nosete hashitteiku tsuuka ressha ni
sakki kara nee dareka wo sagashiteru no?

shiritai shiritai dakedo yappari kowai
atashi yori kawaii? bijin? donna fuku? donna koe?
tsukareta yoru ni me wo tojite ukabu no wa
kitto mou atashi janaku sono ko na no ne

jiwari hikaru sunahama ni ashiato to tsukiakari
sekaijuu de tatta futari bocchi ni natte mo
kowakunai tte itta no ni

jouzu ni kienai ichi guramu no tameiki wa
negai wo kometa saigo no sain na no

ienai ienai tsurai nante ienai
anata no mae de wa konna toki mo waratte shimau no
nichiyou no machi wo issho ni arukitai no wa
kitto mou atashi janaku sono ko na no ni

onaji kisetsu ni umareta koto
waratta kao ga niteiru koto
meguriaeta to omotta natsu no hi

kyou no yoru wa futari ga daisuki na dorama ga aru kara
dakara sorosoro owakare shiyou
ashita no asa ohayou wa mou todokanai

nakanai nakanai nakanai no wa mou oshimai
kiete shimaitai hodo anata ni koi shiteita kedo
ima tonari ni ite hoshii to omou no wa
sono ko wo omou anata janai kara

sayonara

English Translation

Why do I wake up with my heart beating so fast?
Why do I feel like I want to share everything to you?
I guess I'm still in love.

You used to say you hated love stories.
Do you think that I haven't noticed you reading love stories all of a sudden recently?
Sorry, I'm not that dumb.

A train is passing by in front of us, carrying memories we've made.
You're looking for someone on that train, and I know that it's not me.

I wish I could ask you, but I'm too afraid.
Is she prettier? Beautiful? How does she dress? What is her voice like?
When you come home tired and close your eyes,
it's not me who's on your mind anymore. It's her.

Footsteps and moonlight on a glowing beach
Do you remember you told me that even if we ever get left alone in this world,
You're not afraid, as long as I'm with you.

A gram of sigh still floating in the air.
It's a last sign from me, wishing you'd notice.

I wish I could tell you that you hurt me
I hate myself for smiling like that when I'm with you.
The one you want to walk hand in hand with on a Sunday,
it's not me anymore. It's her.

We were born in the same season
How we look identical when we laugh
That summer day when I thought I'd found the one
I'm letting go

Tonight we have our favorite drama on TV,
so let's say goodbye now.
Tomorrow morning, there won't be a good morning from you.
Won't look back anymore

Say goodbye to the days I held back my tears.
I was truly in love with you, so in love that I wished I could disappear.
But it's not you that I want by my side anymore.
Not you who has that girl in your heart.

So goodbye.
