宵は過ぎ しんとした部屋で
The evening has passed, in a quiet room
カーテン越しの君を想う
I think of you through the curtain
口にしたミルクティーの
The sweet warmth of the milk tea I spoke
甘い熱が体を巡った
Circulated through my body
憧れに 手を引かれるまま
Led by yearning, I found my way
この街に 辿り着いていた
And had arrived in this town
がらり変わった暮らし
A life that changed drastically
隣にはいつも 君が居てくれた
You were always by my side
机の上に 二つ並んだ
Two cups sitting side by side on the table
四つ葉にそっと 指で触れた
Gently, I touched the four-leaf clover with my finger
まだ熱を持つ この頃のこと
Still burning with heat, these recent days
一人思い返す
I reminisce alone
いつしか芽吹いた
Before I knew it, it sprouted
どうしようもない想い
Uncontrollable feelings
止められない想い
Feelings I can't hold back
今日も君が好きでした
Today as well, I loved you
今はまだどうにもなっていない
Right now, nothing has changed yet
蕾さえつけていない
Not even a bud has formed
あぁ まだ幼い願いだけど
Ah, though it's still a childish wish
君と出会わなければ
If I hadn't met you
きっと感じることのない
Surely I'll never feel this way,
この痛みさえ愛しい
Even this pain is dear to me.
今はまだ届かない想いよ
These feelings that can't reach you yet,
春待つこの想いよ
Oh, this longing as I wait for spring.
いつしか花咲きますように
May flowers bloom someday, I wish.
故郷を思い出せるように
So I can remember my hometown.
と届いた桜の花びら
As cherry blossom petals arrived,
私は変わらずにいるよと
I still remain the same, you know.
お返しを探しに出た
I set out to find something to give back,
忙しく過ごす君はただ
While you busy yourself with life.
微笑んで隣にしゃがみ込む
Squatting down beside you with a smile
陽が落ちても
Even as the sun sets
見つからなかったね
We couldn't be found, huh?
それでも嬉しかった
Yet, I was still happy
ミルクティーは
The milk tea
ぬるくなった
Has gone lukewarm
それでも冷めない
But it still doesn't cool down
冷めないままだ
It stays warm just the same
あのねベイビー 聴かせてベイビー
Hey there, baby, let me hear you, baby
私は今君の中にいますか?
Am I inside you now?
なんてベイビー 君がくれた四つ葉にそっと
Oh baby, softly to the four-leaf clover you gave me
唇を寄せた
I pressed my lips close
芽吹いたのは
It has begun to sprout
どうしようもない想い
An overwhelming feeling I can't escape
止められない想い
An unstoppable feeling
今日も君が好きでした
Today, I still loved you.
今はまだどうにもなっていない
Right now, it's still not going anywhere.
蕾さえつけていない
Not even a bud has formed yet
青い青い願いでも
Even with a wish that's blue, so blue
きっと
Surely
思い悩みすれ違ったって
Even if we crossed paths in worry and strife,
意地になってぶつかったって
Even if I stubbornly collided with you,
今日もずっと大好きでした
Today, I still loved you all along.
今はまだどうにもなってなくたって
Even if I can’t find a way right now,
上手く伝えられなくたって
Even if I can’t express it well,
あぁ そんな日々さえ愛しいんだよ
Ah, even those days are dear to me.
もっとその手に触れたくて
I want to touch your hand even more,
もっとその目に映りたくて
I want to reflect in your eyes even more,
想えば想うほど君が好きだ
The more I think of you, the more I love you.
さよならを迎える前に
Before we say goodbye.
伝えたいけど
I want to tell you, but
けど 今はまだ
But for now, not yet
宵は過ぎ しんとした部屋で
The night has passed in this quiet room
カーテン越しに君の声
Through the curtains, I hear your voice
明日はきっと 今日よりももっと好きだよ
Tomorrow, I will surely love you more than today
おやすみ
Good night
