12. Koi ni Ochite (Album version)

I fell in love with you in a fraction of a second
and the more I got to know you, the more I came to like you

From the day we met, I’ve had the mysterious feeling
that a lot of things started to change

Until I acknowledge what the reason is for that,
I want to pile up our times together more, right now it’s completely clear

If I were to grasp your hand, you would grasp mine back
If I were to touch you, you would softly embrace me
That alone is fine, that alone is fine

I can’t see you yet for a little while
We’ll see each other again soon, right? But I don’t want to be apart from you

Just by remembering, my chest becomes tighter
Even when you’re far away, you still give me so much happiness

You smiling in front of me, be it either true or a lie,
to me, that is everything and the truth
I didn’t know before we met

I remember you crouched, your words and actions
Even in that time
everything was precious

I fell in love with you in a fraction of a second
and the more I got to know you, the more I came to like you

If I were to grasp your hand, you would grasp mine back
If I were to touch you, you would softly embrace me
That alone is fine, that alone is fine

That alone is fine

11. Wasurenaide

In that time, every day was just fun
I loved everyone’s laughing voices very much
The things that we could only get at that place,
we probably have a lot of them now

Even though the person that you drew once upon a time is different from your present self
The way you walked wasn’t wrong, you can see that by looking at the people you were able to meet, right?

Don’t ever forget, from now on too
That the people you love and your friends
they all think of you as someone important

You were always able to make me have a smile on my face
So I also want you to keep smiling

If there are times you feel like you’ll lose against hardships, don’t carry it on your own
Because the fact that you have people next to you who you can get close to is a wonderful thing

Don’t ever change, from now on too
The people who you love will someday
become people you can protect

Let’s gather up with everyone like this from now on too
Because the important things are right here

The graffiti on the desks that have disappeared
Everyone’s voices echoing in the hallways
Somehow remember the lonely times

Don’t ever forget, from now on too
That the people you love and your friends
they all think of you as someone important

Don’t forget

10. Sore de Iinda

It was a hot summer’s day and under the sun that shone above our heads
we set up our bikes and rode down the hill in one go

Saying things like ‘You don’t have to hurry so much’ and ‘I will chase after you’
even though there wasn’t anything there yet

The fact that I used to let them ride like that
was probably an expectation

Next was uphill, one person stood and started peddling
We still can’t see the other side of the peak
I wonder what is waiting there

Maybe there was nothing on that other side
We set up our bikes and rode up the hill in a trance
Just riding with all our strength, they were probably fine with that

And time passed, amidst a scenery
slightly different from that time,
I’m still riding, being carried by something, forgetting something

The way uphill that appeared is within my grasp, but
It’s not here, and I’ve become unable to ride any more
What is to become of this me?

That’s right, on a hot summer’s day, under the sun that shines above my head,
Does it look as if I can aim for that peak with my bike once more?

Maybe there is nothing, nothing on the other side
There is only one bicycle, there’s no one next to me anymore
Even so, I will ride with all my strength
Yes, surely, that’s enough for me

9. Kono Shiroi Yuki to

On a calm night when snow was fluttering down
The two of us
sneaked into an empty classroom

We held our breaths for the patrolling light
and before we knew it we were holding hands within the transparent gleam
Our eyes met

Even now I think about how it would’ve been if I had told you my feelings then
but as long as it remains in my memory so beautifully
I tell myself
that it might have been good that I didn’t tell you

Time passed after we separated
This year too, this town with a different scenery
is being dyed white

On a freezing night when my breath turned white
I feel like I heard your voice
But even as I turn around, you are not there

This white snow and these emotions fall and pile up in this town tonight
I wonder how many times I will think of you like this
If I were meeting you right now, would something have changed?

I used to fear taking a step forward
If you were here for me, that would’ve been fine

This white snow and these emotions will probably all melt and disappear before long
I wonder how many times I can look back, will I be able to forget you?
The snow that doesn’t stop is falling and piling up in this town
You won’t disappear from me

8. Suiyoubi, Moenai Gomi to Watashi

Wednesday morning, a bag in my left hand
in my right hand big unburnable garbage
Walking uncomfortably,
I get on the elevator

You were always the one
who threw out the garbage
Thinking about it,
I have never thrown out the trash even once

I don’t know where it is
My place of destination is the garbage bin
Tightly grasping the unburnable trash
My small journey begins

The elevator doors open
and I’ve arrived at the entrance of the mansion
I open the mailbox
I can see right in front of me

I remembered you
who stood behind this troublesome me
every time I opened the mailbox
Saying ‘that’s why I tell you, look more closely’

Because you are not here
the leaflets and envelopes have piled up
I have to come get them quickly
I can’t, I closed the mailbox

I finally found the garbage bin
for some reason there’s a poster
Today is Wednesday
it was the day for burnable trash

I wonder if this me
who has been spoiled by you
will experience all these things one by one from now on
Wednesday is the day for burnable garbage
the day I strongly became aware of your existence

7. Aitai

This is the nostalgic subway that I’ve become used to seeing
From here I can see the wheeled vehicles

Even though you can’t possibly be here at this moment right now
The probability of that would be, how much percentage?

But why is my chest acting up?
The door that opens, the chair before it tilted, the vehicle next to mine
Even though I saw this scenery just before, I’m searching for it again
I don’t want to verify the reason why my heartbeat becomes distant

Whenever I walk through town, what makes me look back unconsciously
Is the same perfume and a back figure that looked just like you

And someday I will forget and go on

I get out of the ticket gate in a quick pace
Suddenly I become unable to walk
Why do I have these feelings again, I become frustrated on my own
I’m suddenly struck by the fact that I want to see you

Do you also have moments
where your feelings become like this?

Even if I wish that I want to see you, it probably won’t reach anymore
Your figure isn’t anywhere to be found in the commonness that goes too far
Now, lift your head, you just became a little nostalgic

I remembered you

6. Mizufuusen

The lined up candy apples, the path I walk with you
Just like my feelings getting impatient, there’s the echoing sound of drums

The water balloon smoothly slipped through my fingers
The water that broke and splashed on the ground soaked the hem of my yukata

It’s because of summer, it’s not love
that I’m becoming sad
That moment when you put an end to it saying you would only hurt me

The hand that was pulled away, the sound of my heart, the night wind
Even while confused, I want to know you even more

The wind that was a bit warm grazed my cheek
In the distance it started sounding, I looked up at the thunder in the sky

The clouds go, summer goes, I don’t want to go back
You touched me
I want to hear the reason, but I can’t listen

Lined up side-by-side, just keeping silent, going uphill
You matched my pace, that kindness also becomes precious

The broken water balloon won’t come back
This me that’s been hurt too

I can’t turn back anymore

The hand that was pulled away
The fingers that touched my hair, I prefer your warmth
Not that of someone else

5. Yoake Mae, Kimi to

When I noticed, outside it had already started to get light, the re-air of the film also ended
You who got tired of waiting and rested your chin on your hand are sleeping with your mouth open
While yawning, I laugh

In the middle of sleep-talking, you called my name
Even though it’s simple but still I was a bit happy

You probably won’t remember tomorrow
that I said you’re cute when you are calmly sleeping

As I do, a wrinkle appears on your brow, when I saw that I laughed again
Without thinking, I am smiling with wonder and preciousness

You start talking to me when I watch TV, the talk probably isn’t important
You are testing me which one I will pick, soccer or you
So I’ll hear you out

When I reply randomly, your mood worsens
Because it looks like the TV might get switched off

The more I got to know bits about you,
I became able to feel gentle feelings

What I thought is that you don’t have to test me like that
I will always listen to your words without escaping

Sure, you are selfish and it makes me get bothered, but
I thought that you are only unruly with me

I’ll definitely get a lack of sleep today, but I wanted
to look at your sleeping face a little longer, you before daybreak

I wanted to look at your sleeping face, you before daybreak

4. Tadaima

It’s been a while since I’ve been in this town, it’s still as quiet as it used to be
That shop that I often visited on the other side of my elementary school

The worn-out paper patchwork in the lowered shutters,
Will it blur away like this along with time until it becomes a memory?

The nostalgic scenery, the people I love
I hope it will stay like this without changing

I’m glad we can meet, as long as we can spend time together
Saying farewell is just sad, however
I wonder if it was okay to come back here for a short time

I’ve gradually become used to that town as well, so
don’t worry and watch me, okay? I’ve tried putting it into words a lot of times

The busy everyday life, the overflowing crowds of people,
the beautiful nightscape city becomes almost painful

The traffic passes through, always when I go home
That pitch dark room is there, I wonder since when, before I realize
I’ve become unable to even say ‘I’m home’

It may be a bit sad to think of where the people went
but when I open the door, there is a voice that says ‘Welcome home’

I’m glad we can meet, as long as we can spend time together
saying farewell is just sad, but you know what, I’m definitely glad
that I came back here

I want to say it time and time again, ‘I’m home’, and ‘Welcome home’

I’ll come back home again, I will do my best until then
Let me say it again, ‘I’m home’
