Lyrics

久しぶりに 会った君は
– hisashiburi ni atta kimi wa
相変わらずというか
– aikawarazu to iu ka
何ひとつ 変わってない
– nani hitotsu kawattenai
そんなふうに見えた
– sonna fuu ni mieta

そんなはずは ないことくらい
– sonna hazu wa nai koto kurai
わかってるのだけれど
– wakatteru no da keredo
会わずにいた 時間なんて
– awazu ni ita jikan nante
なかったかのように
– nakatta ka no you ni

約束なんて 堅苦しいことは
– yakusoku nante katakurushii koto wa
ぼくらの間には 必要ないのさ
– bokura no aida ni wa hitsuyou nai no sa

悪ふざけ ばっかしてた
– warufuzake bakka shiteta
どうしようもないぼくら
– dou shiyou mo nai bokura
久しぶりに 帰ってきた
– hisashiburi ni kaette kita
あの日のままのぼくら
– ano hi no mama no bokura

そういえば 果てしもなく
– sou ieba hateshi mo naku
ずっと話してたのに
– zutto hanashiteta no ni
何の話 していたのか
– nan no hanashi shite ita no ka
何も覚えてないな
– nanimo oboetenai na

成長なんて 小難しいことは
– seichou nante komuzukashii koto wa
ぼくらの辞書にはね 書いていないのさ
– bokura no jisho ni wa ne kaiteinai no sa

ごまかしたり うそついたり
– gomakashitari uso tsuitari
迷惑かけあっていた
– meiwaku kakeatte ita
絶対に 言わないけど
– zettai ni iwanai kedo
そんなとこも好きだ
– sonna toko mo suki da

English Translation

Meeting you again after so long
You were just as always
Not a bit different
That’s how I saw you

Of course, that can’t be the case
I know that full well
But it was like the years between us
Just slipped away

Promises and other formal things
We do not need them

Always horsing around
An incorrigible pair
Coming home after so long
Just like we were that day

Come to think of it, those never-ending
Interminable talks we had
Whatever it was we talked about
I can’t remember at all

The difficulties of growing up
Words like that were never in our dictionary

Telling lies and kidding each other
Being a burden on each other
I’d never ever say it, but
I’m so glad that’s the way we are
