Description
There are songs that smell like the changing seasons - that very first wind that tells you it's time to part ways, even if your hands haven't let go yet. Here, farewell doesn't sound like a full stop, but rather an ellipsis: the familiar “bye” instead of the heavy “good luck,” a slight smile to hide the tremor in your voice.
It is warm and poignant at the same time, like a last walk down a familiar alley, where yesterday everything was familiar, and today suddenly seems precious. These lines express gratitude for the encounter and a bright hope for something new - even if different paths lie ahead, the memory remains shared, like spring, summer, autumn, and winter, which follow one another but always return.
Lyrics and translation
Original
通いなれた
並木道の先で
これが最後ねと別れた
Yellowづいた
綺麗なつぼみが
旅立つ季節の訪れを知らせた
さよならが苦手な僕達は
いつものよーにまたねと手を振る
イタズラな笑顔が好きでした
もう1度だけ見せて
ねぇどーして涙が溢れる
忘れないよずっと
出会えて良かったあなたに
また逢う日まで
僕らは選んだ道を歩んでく
巡りゆく季節の真ん中で
何が思っていますか？
あの日見た綺麗なつぼみは花をさかせ
この街をいろどる
伝えたい思いに気づく頃
風切なあなたはもういない
ごめんねとありがとーをくりかえし
僕達は愛を知った
ねぇどーして涙が溢れる
忘れないよーずっと
出会えて良かったあなたに
また逢う日まで僕らはそれぞれ目指す場所へ
春の風も真夏の太陽も
秋の空も冬の砂浜も
出会い別れを繰り返して
巡り巡っていくのに
ねぇどーして涙が溢れる
忘れないよずっと
出会えて良かったあなたに
また逢う日まで
僕らは選んだ道を歩んでく
出会えてよかったあなたに
また逢う日まで
サヨナラ僕たちが過ごした日々よ
English translation
I got used to it
At the end of the tree-lined road
I said goodbye, saying this was the last time.
It's yellow
beautiful buds
Announced the arrival of the season of departure
We are not good at saying goodbye.
As usual, I waved and said “see you soon”
I liked your mischievous smile
Show me just one more time
Hey, why are my tears overflowing?
I'll never forget
I'm glad I met you
Until the day we meet again
We will walk the path we have chosen
In the middle of the changing seasons
What are you thinking?
The beautiful buds I saw that day will bloom into flowers
Color this city
When you realize what you want to convey
You are no more.
Repeatedly saying sorry and thank you.
we knew love
Hey, why are my tears overflowing?
I'll never forget it
I'm glad I met you
Until the day we meet again, we each go to the place we aim for
The spring wind and the midsummer sun
The autumn sky and the winter sandy beach
Repeated encounters and partings
Even though it goes around
Hey, why are my tears overflowing?
I'll never forget
I'm glad I met you
Until the day we meet again
We will walk the path we have chosen
I'm glad I met you
Until the day we meet again
Goodbye, the days we spent
