君がいないと何にも
Without you, I can't do anything,
できないわけじゃないと
But that's not really the case,
ヤカンを火にかけたけど
I put the kettle on the fire,
紅茶のありかがわからない
Yet I don't know where the tea is,
ほら 朝食も作れたもんね
See? I even managed to make breakfast,
だけどあまりおいしくない
But it doesn't taste so great,
君が作ったのなら文句も
If you had made it, I could've complained,
思いきり言えたのに
With all my heart, I would have said it,
一緒にいるときは
When we're together,
きゅうくつに思えるけど
It can feel a bit cramped,
やっと自由を手に入れた
I finally gained my freedom
ぼくはもっと淋しくなった
But I became even more lonely
さよならと言った君の
With your goodbye, you said
気持ちはわからないけど
I don't understand how you feel
いつもよりながめがいい
The view is better than usual
左に少し とまどってるよ
I hesitate just a bit to the left
もし君に 1つだけ
If I could only say one thing to you
強がりを言えるのなら
If I could pretend to be strong
もう恋なんてしないなんて
I won't say that I won't love again
言わないよ 絶対
No way, I absolutely won't
2本並んだ歯ブラシも
Two toothbrushes side by side,
1本捨ててしまおう
Let’s just throw one away.
君の趣味で買った服も
The clothes you bought by your taste,
もったいないけど捨ててしまおう
It's a shame, but let’s discard them too.
「男らしく いさぎよく」と
"Be a man, be resolute,"
ごみ箱かかえる僕は
Holding the trash bin, here I stand.
他のだれから見ても一番
To anyone else, I must be
センチメンタルだろう
The most sentimental one,
こんなに いっぱいの
Gathering all of your remnants,
君のぬけがら集めて
So many memories left behind.
ムダなものに囲まれて
Surrounded by useless things
暮らすのも幸せと 知った
I came to know that living is also a kind of happiness.
君あての郵便が
A letter addressed to you
ポストに届いてるうちは
As long as it’s reaching the mailbox
かたすみで迷っている
Lost in a corner, I'm wandering
背中を思って 心配だけど
Thinking of your back, I'm worried but
2人で出せなかった
We couldn't bring it out together.
答えは 今度出会える
The answer will come when we meet again.
君の知らない誰かと
With someone you don't know
見つけてみせるから
I’ll show you that I can find it
本当に 本当に
Truly, truly
君が大好きだったから
Because I really loved you
もう恋なんてしないなんて
I won't say I'll never love again
言わないよ 絶対
Absolutely, I won't say that
