あの日のさよなら (Ano hi no sayonara) – That day’s goodbye
from Sayonara, Alice / TOMORROW ~Shiawase no housoku~ single.
——
Even now, I still
Love you so much
I never expected this to happen
I should have forgotten you
That day’s goodbye
If I hadn’t said that
My heart would surely
Not have known this pain
On the opposite side
Of the huge intersection
You were smiling happily
When I spotted you
Unsure if I should call out
Before I knew it
I was hurrying away, escaping
Dashing into a narrow alley
Why, why are my tears
Overflowing like this?
I acted strong and pretended
I should have forgotten you
That day’s goodbye
I’m surely the only one
Whose heart is still
Being tugged along somewhere
I heaved
A small sigh
As I gently wiped the scattered tears
Away with my index finger
When I lifted my head
Right before my eyes
Smiling happily
You passed me by
The cologne
I used to love
You’re still using it
Carried by the wind
Maybe the one who changed
Was me?
Whispering “― I’m still loving you.
Why did I say good-bye to you?―”
That time, I should have forgotten how to cry
I should have forgotten you
That day’s goodbye
If I hadn’t said that
My heart would surely
Not have known this pain
