Romaji notes + Color-coding notes: [1] The line is written "sameteiku" in hiragana but sung "sameteyuku." [2] Where he raps "ima" (now), the kanji for "genzai" (present) is used.
Underline takes the melody.

Staring at the summer twilight,
alone in a lukewarm wind
I could hear some lively voices from somewhere
The long time spent with you,
would never come to an end
It seems like yesterday I felt beyond my smile
we could walk on

Unconciously I thought back on it,
I who realized how I am
Unable to change anything I hesitated...

I came this far unable to get used to the days
that didn't have enough of you
Even now, I'm still searching for you,
fragments of love still stuck in this heart

Without even a downpour of rain,
on a day when the sky was pale sky-blue
We ended things in that small cafe
in front of the station
The scene that rose to the surface
of my tea as it grew cold was
At least in my memories, sweetly, bitterly,
burned so much it was painful

To that time when no matter what
I wanted to tell you it came out wrong
If I can return to it then right now,
I want to go back...

I realized, if I had just been honest
with myself the answer would have been just one
If I call out, just as if my voice can still reach you,
they're just words of love with nowhere to go

When I space out, "Ah..." again
The smile from that time even now, still
An echo of your voice again,
I wonder if it's strange...
My feelings are still, still upside down (ha...)

We even went to a place with a beautiful night view
We even talked of ordinary things
Still unable to meet eyes, my hand on your shoulder
"Say something" troubled, you said it,
didn't you, that you...

The seasons passing by take you far away
In the seasons passing by,
I wonder what I will find

I came this far unable to get used to the days
that didn't have enough of you
Even now, I'm still searching for you,
fragments of love still stuck in this heart

Fragments of love still broken
