ルミリー (Rumirii) – Lumille

from Watashi igai watashi ja nai no single.

Yes, whenever I’m lonely, I indulge in memories
Whenever I sing of pain, I remember your face
Though the memory is unwanted
I turned on the light in the dark room
The creases of your smile were like mine
Aside from that, nothing else resembled
A small life smiling by my side
And I end up smiling too
Gazing at the sky and the fruitlessly flowing
Shapes of clouds as I sing
My trembling voice disappears without reaching
Picking up the fallen melody before me
And seeing that innocent face
Which I’d almost forgotten, we walk on again today
I smiled as I held your tiny hand

A dim floating sorrowful melody, a recurring beautiful melody
All of it tightening, all of it recalled

I’ve recalled and remembered countless times
The thing which should be shining on my ring finger
That I’d put into a letter to be sent out
Unable to form words, I worried
FInally finishing up 10 sheets of paper
Waiting for your return by the door
But you are no longer here
Unaware of anything, I fall asleep
And you are never there when I wake
Every time I close my eyes, you are smiling
As I cry with swollen eyes and the day passes
But next to me, your magical face
In this slightly larger home, I
Smile like you and us

A dim floating sorrowful melody, a recurring beautiful melody
All of it tightening, all of it recalled
A dim singing sorrowful melody, a recurring nostalgic melody
All of it tightening, all of it recalled

Please, along the winding road
Just let me meet you
Because of my fickle personality
I end up thinking that
And so, my ring finger remains empty
Will you hang on and read my long essay?
Just that will be enough

A dim floating sorrowful melody, a recurring beautiful melody
All of it tightening, all of it recalled
A dim singing sorrowful melody, a recurring nostalgic melody
All of it tightening, all of it recalled
