English
I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you
I’ve missed you, yes!
I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you
I’ve missed you, yes!
You...
I pedal my bike with all my might
Up the hill
Now even my shirt billowing in the wind
Makes me impatient
I finally realised how I really feel
I’ll be honest
Run
Down this one path!
If you love someone, tell them
Don’t hide it, be honest
If you love someone, tell them
Lay your heart bare
I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you
I’ve missed you, yes!
I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you
I’ve missed you, yes!
You...
I’m completely bare faced
I haven’t even wiped away the sweat pouring down me
The tunnel through the sunlit woods
Is a shortcut to summer
I may not be so good with words
But being straightforward will do
Run
Through life your way!
Because you mean more to me than anyone else
I won’t regret it, even if you reject me
Because you mean more to me than anyone else
I wanted to tell you how I feel
If you love someone, tell them
Don’t hide it, be honest
If you love someone, tell them
Lay your heart bare
Lalalalala lalalalalalala
Lalalalala lalalalalalala
Lalalalala lalalalalalala
Lalalalala lalalalalalala
I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you
I’ve missed you, yes!
I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you
I’ve missed you, yes!
You...
I’ve missed you!!

Romaji
Koutei ni gekou no chaimu ga hibiku iro no nai sora
Yakyuubu ga mienikui booru wo otteru
Sumi no jitensha okiba de
Kabegiwa ni narabi hanasenai mama
Zutto kari hanashi no CD wo
Kaesu tame koko ni kita furi shiteta
Dakedo...
“Anata ga suki deshita”
Saigo ni iitakute
Kono mune no kigi ga kaze ni yurete iru
“Anata ga suki deshita”
Koe ni wa dasenakute
Setsunasa wo kizukarenai you ni hohoemimashita
Ano kado wa sonna ni tooku wa nai to oshiete kureta
Kyori ja naku anata ga inaku naru ashita kara
Mizu wo irekaeta puuru ga
Kirakira to hikaru mirai no you ni...
Nanimo hajimaranakatta
Toki dake ga sabitsuita ano kanaami
Dakedo...
“Ima nara ieru no ni...”
Kokoro ga sakenderu
Omoide wa itsumo wasuremono bakari
“Ima nara ieru no ni...”
Namida ga afuresou
Yuuyake ga mabushii me wo utsumukimashita
“Anata ga suki deshita”
Saigo ni iitakute
Kono mune no kigi ga kaze ni yurete iru
“Anata ga suki deshita”
Koe ni wa dasenakute
Setsunasa wo kizukarenai you ni hohoemimashita

English
The end-of-day bell rings out through the colourless sky over the school field
The baseball club are chasing a ball I can barely see
In the bike shed in the corner
We stand side by side by the wall, unable to speak
I’m pretending I’ve come to return
The CD I borrowed from you ages ago
But...
“I loved you”
I wanted to say that in the end
The trees in my heart are swaying in the wind
“I loved you”
I couldn’t say it
So I smiled to hide my heartache
You told me that town isn’t so far away
It’s not the distance, it’s the fact that you won’t be here from tomorrow
They’ve changed the water in the pool
It sparkles brightly, like the future...
Nothing happened
Time is like that rusted wire fence
But...
“I could have said it now...”
My heart is screaming
Memories always get left behind
“I could have said it now...”
Tears threatened to overflow
I looked down, squinting like the sunset was too bright
“I loved you”
I wanted to say that in the end
The trees in my heart are swaying in the wind
“I loved you”
I couldn’t say it
So I smiled to hide my heartache
