ごめんね ずっと… (Gomen ne zutto…) – Sorry for never…

from Inochi wa utsukushii single.

Sorry for never…
Noticing your feelings…
Up till today, I’ve always relied
On your kindness

Sorry for never…
Letting you speak out, causing you much worry
Because you’ve fallen in love
With someone other than me

Your smile is the same as always
But it appears somewhat lonely
Like the drizzling sun shower
That falls during a sunny day

I’m so glad to have met you at that season
It wouldn’t have happened if it was a year later
For those days and ending romances
Thank you so much

Even the bandages
Wrapped around my heart
Will be gently torn away
By you, but

Because I’ve received so much love from you
You don’t need to worry anymore
Go back to the person who is waiting for you
Let the sun shower stop

The road I’ve walked with you up till today
Even now, I’ve never regretted it once
It shines at the bottom of my heart
My precious treasure

The strength of love lies in consideration for the other
That’s something I understood from my meeting with you
The tears flowing down your cheeks
Are somehow so warm

Sorry for never…
Saying anything but selfish words
Now that we’re at the end
You can have the last indulgence

立ち直り中 (Tachi naori chuu) – In recovery

from Inochi wa utsukushii single.

——

Crossing the road from the Eifuku train station
Following the path beside Taishoken
Turning at the crossroads, going down the slope
Your house and memories come into view

That summer with the sound of windchimes coming from somewhere
Our held hands were slightly sweaty, but
I was afraid that if I let go, you’d go off somewhere
So I kept on holding on

Why
Did I come here alone?
I won’t be able to meet you anyway
But my feet just carry me unknowingly, unknowingly
Even now
Every time I meet with sadness
Your kind face appears in my mind
In recovery

Apartments built upon the vacant land
Things are slightly different from my memories
We kissed there in the middle of the night
But the passing of time has overwritten that

If I somehow meet you along the road
Yes, what excuse should I give?
A “Long time no see” spoken in a bright voice
And you’ll see through me like you always did

Finally
I stepped out with my own feet
I thought that I’d forgotten you
But it was impossible
So
Not looking away from my heart
I face reality straight
In rehabilitation

Love is
Those shining days and
Spending time together and
Being healed

Why
Did I come here alone?
I won’t be able to meet you anyway
But my feet just carry me unknowingly, unknowingly
Even now
Every time I meet with sadness
Your kind face appears in my mind
In recovery

Lalala…
Lalala…

Lies the destiny of you and I

Or foundation in science
But now, maybe
It’ll be ok to believe a little…
A wonderful future
Tell me if you can predict it

Look at the sky!
It’s in the 12 signs

The movement of the 12 glittering lights
Form the canal of meetings and separations
No matter how far apart we are
We’re connected

Since the day we were born, everything
And the future is all determined
So that we won’t lose our way in this long life
The sky guides us

命は美しい (Inochi wa utsukushii) – Life is beautiful

from Inochi wa utsukushii single.

——

HA…HA…HA…
HA…HA…HA…
HA…HA…HA…

With the moondrops at its back
The single leaf shivers in the wind
It’ll be easier if I can let go of your hand
So why am I clinging on?

What am I living for?
No matter how many times I ask
The darkness reaching to the end of the sky remains silent
If I can dream, I’ll close my eyes
Even with troubles, the night will finally end

Life is beautiful
Since the day I realized that
All this sorrow
Just disappeared
Things don’t last forever
Like the transcience of flowers
Every single moment like this
Is the meaning of life

Merging into the horizon
The indigo sun speaks to me
The things I gave up on halfway yesterday
Let me start over again today

What am I living for?
Unable to find an answer
There is only one truth before my eyes
“Rather than wait to find out what happiness is
Look for the flowers blooming at my feet!”

Life is strong
Because I was born into this world
No matter how hurt I get
I should stand up again
I can’t just toss it away
People are promising
Every single one, yes everyone
The next future

Life is beautiful
Since the day I realized that
All this sorrow
Just disappeared
Things don’t last forever
Like the transcience of flowers
Every single moment like this
Is the meaning of life
