ENGLISH TRANSLATION

I might I might I might I might

You answered me back with a smile That’s my sign you’re gonna lie to me

Just before our second anniversary This’ll all end with you dumping me

“You’re single again, Mariko” I comment to myself

Guess I’ll pretend not to know, as long as I want As I stay here in your arms

Oh, you’re a nice guy, I know That just makes it hurt all the more Even though I said a prayer Our hearts keep growing far apart

Oh, I’ll break up with you myself Yeah, or at least I wanted to, but couldn’t Although multiple times as we talk I’ve been trying to find the right time

I might cry I might cry I might cry I might I might I might

Why do you always push yourself so hard? If you don’t want to, break up with me

I whined like a baby for something on purpose But you’re the type to smile sweetly in response

“You’re okay with this, Mariko?” I wonder to myself

Before I say it’s over, hold me C’mon, c’mon. It’s cold out, so it’s fine

Your kindness is a transgression See? It’s giving me second thoughts Just like when we met I wanna check with each other daily

Oh, I’d love to stay a bit longer Yeah, I’d love to stay here with you If our last night’s on the way Then while acting all confident…
