Ikimono Gakari--Nostalgia

Kanji

か細い声で語る　私の話を聞いて
無理に強がるわけじゃないけど　あんな風にもう泣かないから
少しずつずれていく　二人の歩幅がつらい
雨音にさえ　不意に怯えて　はぐれてく二つの傘

無邪気なまま　瞬いてる　あなたとの思い出ノスタルジア
ねえそれ以上　言わないでよ　こぼれた涙が　震える手に　落ちていく

忘れることなど　出来ると思うの　見慣れた背中を　追いかけたい
涙にまかせて　こぼれたいいわけ　信じることさえ　もう出来ない
本当の気持ちは　胸にしまう　ふたりの明日が消える前に

ありきたりな恋でいいと　素直に心揺らしてた
幼いままの　私を包む　まぼろしは空に消える

冷たいまま　動いている　時計の針はもう戻せなくて
今ほどけた　恋の糸が　戸惑う私を　切ないほど　しめつける

いとしさを超えて　悲しみを捨てて　新しい私に　今出会うの
やがて訪れる　素敵な未来に　あなたの姿は　もう見えない
本当の気持ちは　胸にしまう　ひとりの明日を歩くために

いとしさを超えて　悲しみを捨てて　新しい私に　今出会うの
やがて訪れる　素敵な未来に　あなたの姿は　もう見えない
本当の気持ちは　胸にしまう　きらめく明日に出会うために

本当の気持ちは　胸にしまう　ふたりの明日が消える前に

Romaji

Kabosoi koe de kataru watashi no hanashi wo kiite
muri ni tsuyogaru wake janai kedo anna fui ni mou naka nai kara
sukoshi zutsu zure te iku futari no hohaba ga tsurai
ama on ni sae fui ni obiete hagure teku futatsu no kasa

Mujaki na mama mabatai teru anata to no omoide nosutarujia
nee sore ijou iwa nai de yo kobore ta namida ga furueru te ni ochi te iku

Wasureru koto nado dekiru to omou no minare ta senaka o oikake tai
namida ni makase te kobore ta iiwake shinjiru koto sae mou deki nai
hontou no kimochi wa mune ni shimau futari no asu ga kieru mae ni

Ari ki tari na koi de ii to sunao ni kokoro yurashi te ta
osanai mama no watashi wo tsutsumu maboroshi wa sora ni kieru

Tsumetai mama ugoi te iru tokei no hari wa mou modose nakute
ima hodoke ta koi no ito ga tomadou watashi wo setsunai hodo shimetsukeru

Itoshi sa wo koe te kanashimi wo sute te atarashii watashi ni ima deau no
yagate otozureru suteki na mirai ni anata no sugata wa mou mie nai
hontou no kimochi wa mune ni shimau hitori no asu o aruku tame ni

Itoshi sa o koete kanashimi o sutete atarashii watashi ni ima deau no
yagate otozureru suteki na mirai ni anata no sugata wa mou mie nai
hontou no kimochi wa mune ni shimau kirameku asu ni deau tame ni
hontou no kimochi wa mune ni shimau futari no asu ga kieru mae ni

Translation

Listen to my feeble voice’s story
I’m not pretending to be strong but I won’t cry like that again
It’s hard to watch our steps slowly go out of line
Even the sound of rain frightens me as our two umbrellas part

Our memories twinkle innnocently, nostalgia
Hey, don’t say anymore, tears spill into my trembling hand

Can you forget about us? I want to chase your familiar figure
Excuses fell with tears, I can’t even believe anymore
I’ll stow my true feelings in my heart before our tomorrow disappears

My heart was shaken and all I needed was an ordinary love
The illusion that embraced this immature girl vanished in the sky

The hands of time move coldly, we can never turn them back
Now the loose threads of love painfully bind this confused girl

I’ll transcend love, discard sadness, and find the new me now
I can’t see you anymore in the wonderful future that’s coming soon
I’ll stow my true feelings in my heart so I can walk alone tomorrow

I’ll transcend love, discard sadness, and find the new me now
I can’t see you anymore in the wonderful future that’s coming soon
I’ll stow my true feelings in my heart so I can find a bright tomorrow

I’ll stow my true feelings in my heart before our tomorrow disappears
