ENGLISH TRANSLATION

I took off that day, even though you and this city were right for me

I shot you a displeased smile after a long silence, making your mood take a turn for the worse So then you rubbed my forehead against the cold asphalt and blamed me for disappointing you

You’d lost your surroundings. I ignored that.

How did it feel just now to kiss me a year later With the same lips you used to tell me goodbye?

I strung together short little lies, making them utterly obvious Covering up motives I kept at arm’s length Had I preferred being a short distance away over saying things that’ll never be enough I feel like we would’ve understood each other

But I taught you to cry. I ignored that too.

You say you have plenty of cute girls to choose from So then why do you still not have anyone by your side?

What an outrageous dream I just had I was forcing the most arrogant sort of love onto you Winter doesn’t smell right in the city There’s no Momochi Beach, or you, or Muromi River here

I know I could never be selfish with you So I really can’t bring myself to tell you to come to the airport tomorrow, even though it’ll be the very last time All the warnings have become reality now as punishment I took off that day, even though you and this city were right for me
