from White tree single.

Let’s stop our hurrying pace towards the station, just for a while
A voice, numb with cold, echoes. Someone is singing a Christmas song

If I can deliver my feelings that honestly
Then maybe a different form from the present would be waiting for me

Searching for a place tomorrow won’t do
Can’t find a reason for not having you

If only the powder snow dancing through the night
Can dye everything pure, pure white
Wishes in vain will just continue markedly
Even so, we walked on, in order to leave footprints

The white lies I found in those days
Appear smaller as I overlook them, closer as I got used to them

I’ve always noticed these feelings of separation
Is not having me alright? Let me hear your answer

If only we can be like the lovers crowding the city corner
Huddling together so very, very warmly
As the snow gathered, I definitely heard
Us with a creaking sound, walking on while knowing that we can never go back

Let me hold out the present you’ve always wanted when I face you
The illuminations linking to that square are so beautiful
Let’s make this our last night

I’ll give you a “goodbye”

If only the powder snow dancing through the night
Can dye everything pure, pure white
Wishes in vain will just continue markedly
And then, we walked on, in order to hide those footprints

Eki he isogu ashi wo sukoshi demo tomeyou to
Kajikamu koe hibiiteru dareka ga utau kurisumasu songu

Anna ni sunao ni tsutaeru koto dekitara
Ima to wa chigau katachi matteta kamoshirenai

Ashita no doko wo sagashitemo dame nanda
Kimi ja nakute ii riyuu mi ataranai

Konayuki ga mau yoru nanimo kamo wo zenbu
Masshiro ni masshiro ni somete kuretara ii na
Negai wa munashiku irokoku tsuzuku darou
Soredemo bokura wa ashiato nokosu tame ni aruita

Sonna hibi no naka de mitsuketa shiroi uso
Mi otosu hodo chiisaku mi nareru hodo chikaku de

Hanareteku kimochi kizuitetanda zutto
Boku ja nakute ii kotae wo kikasete

Machikado ni afureta koibito-tachi mitai ni
Atatakaku atatakaku yori soetara ii na
Furi tsumoru koro ni futari kishimu oto ga
Tashika ni kikoeta modorenai to wakatte aruita

Kimi ga hoshigatta purezento kakae mukaou
Ano hiroba made tsuzuku irumineeshon ga kirei
Saigo no yoru ni shiyou

“Sayonara” wo ageru

Konayuki ga mau yoru nanimo kamo wo zenbu
Masshiro ni masshiro ni somete kuretara ii na
Negai wa munashiku irokoku tsuzuku darou
Sorekara bokura wa ashiato kakusu you ni aruita

KANJI

駅へ急ぐ足を　少しでも止めようと
かじかむ声　響いてる　誰かが歌う　クリスマスソング

あんなに素直に　伝えることできたら
今とは違う形　待ってたかも知れない

明日のどこを探しても　ダメなんだ
君じゃなくていい　理由　見当たらない

粉雪が舞う夜　何もかもを　全部
真っ白に　真っ白に　染めてくれたらいいな
願いは空しく　色濃く　続くだろう
それでも　僕らは　足あと残すために　歩いた

そんな日々の中で　見つけた　白い嘘
見落とすほど　小さく　見慣れるほど　近くで

離れてく気持ち　気づいてたんだ　ずっと
僕じゃなくていい　答えを聞かせて

街角にあふれた　恋人たちみたいに
温かく　温かく　寄り添えたらいいな
降り積もる頃に　二人　きしむ音が
確かに　聞こえた　戻れないとわかって　歩いた

君が欲しがった　プレゼント抱え　向かおう
あの広場まで　続く　イルミネーションが　綺麗
最後の夜にしよう

「サヨナラ」をあげる

粉雪が舞う夜　何もかもを　全部
真っ白に　真っ白に　染めてくれたらいいな
願いは空しく　色濃く　続くだろう
それから　僕らは　足あと隠すように　歩いた
