遠くまで 歩いてみた 何も持たずに歩いた 君に会った あの日のコトは 今でも宝物 夕やけで隠した横顔 見られたくなかった ちっぽけでポツリ涙なんて らしくなくて その手を そっと 離した さよならって 言えたらきっと もっとカンタンに 忘れられたの? もしまたいつか 会えるトキには ありがとうって 言えるように・・・ あの写真から聞こえる笑い声 どこまでも響いてたね いくじなしポツン涙なんて 情けなくて わざと イヤな ヤツのフリした いつものように 言えたらきっと もっとカンタンに 笑えたのかな もしまたいつか 会えるトキには いつものように 言えるように・・・ 忘れないでって 言えたらきっと どんなコトも 信じられたの? ほんの少し 強くなりたい もっと素直に なれるように さよならって 言えたらきっと もっとカンタンに 忘れられたの? もしまたいつか 会えるトキには ありがとうって 言えるように・・・ 遠くまで 歩いてみた 何も持たずに歩いた 君に会った あの日のコトは 今でも宝物 |

I tried to walk far away without carrying anything with me. But meeting you that day remains a treasure to me, even now. I hid my face in the sunset, I didn't want you to see. Little tears were falling down, it wasn't like me at all. And I let go of your hand. If only I could've said goodbye, then could I surely forget you easier? I hope I can see you again someday, so I can say thank you... I can hear your laughter in that photo echoing all around me. Those weak little tears made me feel so pathetic. So I pretended to be the bad guy. If only I could've spoken like usual, then I could smile easier. I hope I can see you again someday, so I can speak to you like usual... If only I could've said "don't forget me", then would I have something to believe in? I wanna be a little stronger, so I can be more true to myself... If only I could've said goodbye, then could I surely forget you easier? I hope I can see you again someday, so I can say thank you... I tried to walk far away without carrying anything with me. But meeting you that day remains a treasure to me, even now. |
