madobe de futo kuchi zusanda uta
I sang a song by the window
kore wa anata ga
This was a song
totemo suki datta uta
That you really liked
“Sono uta boku mo suki da yo”
“I also like that song”
to nanimo shiranai kare ga
He, who knows nothing,
tonari de waratta
Smiling said beside me.
watashi wa mae ni susumitai kara
I want to move on, that’s why
muri wo shite demo
Even if I had to push myself
shiawase wo sagashita no
I searched for happiness
anata wo suki de iru koto wa
Loving you
sukoshi kurushi sugita kara
Has become a bit painful
hitotsu wakatta koto ga aru no
There is one thing I realized
kou shite atarashii koi wo shite mo
That even having a new love
kantan ni kimochi ga
Old feelings
kieru wake janai
Don’t disappear that easily
dakedo watashi ga mamoritai hito wa
But the person I want to protect now
mou anata janai
Is not you anymore
kokoro midareru hodo suki ni naru koto dake ga koi janai
Love is not only loving someone until your heart is messed up
sasae ni naritai wakatte agetai
‘I want to support him’; ‘I want to understand him’
kono hito no tame ni watashi ga iru nda to
‘I am here for him’
omoeru shiawase ga mitsuketa kara
I have found a happiness that makes me think that way
kinou aruita hitogomi no naka
Yesterday, walking through a crowd
kare wa nando mo furikaete kureta
He looked back at me many times
kitto watashi wo hitori ni wa
I thought that he is person
shinai hito da to omotta
That will not leave me alone
ano yoru ni tsutaeta sayonara
The goodbye I said that night,
watashi ga nani wo kotoba ni shitatte
Whatever it is I would have said
hontou wa anata ni
I actually
tomete hoshikatta
Wanted you to stop me
dakedo anata wa keshite jibun kara
But I knew that you are not the type of person
oikakenai hito da to shittete
That will run after someone
ano toki anata no koto
That time
tameshita no
I tested you
kotoba wo hoshigaru katachi wo hoshigaru
I wanted words, I wanted something concrete
osanai watashi wa ushinatte yatto
And when I parted with the immature me
anata no yasashisa kizuita kara
I finally realized your kindness
doushite mou sukoshi
I wonder why
ganbarenakatta ndarou
I did not try harder
yuzurenakatta
I did not give in
iji wo hatta no
I was being stubborn
dakedo watashi ga mamoritai hito wa
But the person I want to protect now
mou anata janai
Is not you anymore
kokoro midareru hodo suki ni naru koto dake ga koi janai
Love is not only loving someone until your heart is messed up
sasae ni natritai wakatte agetai
‘I want to support him’; ‘I want to understand him’
kono hito no tame ni watashi ga iru nda to
‘I am here for him’
omeru shiawase ga mitsuketa kara
I have found a happiness that makes me think that way
anata to deatte
Meeting you,
watashi wa kawatta
I changed
hanashi au imi wo
The meaning of forgiving each other
shinjiru tsuyosa wo
The strength to believe
anata ga oshiete kureta kara
I learned it all because you taught it all to me.
