Transliteration

Issho ni sugoshita taisetsu na toki muda ja nakatta
Naitari warattari sakende mo
Anata to ita watashi wa kawareta
Tsuyoku nareta ikiru chikara kureta ...

Yasashii hohoemi afureru yubisaki ni
Fuan nanka nomi komarete shimau

Kirawaseru taido dete kuru kotoba mo
Kokoro to wa hantai no koto bakari

Ima mo omoi dasu yasashii nami
Yasuragu egao mo my one, true love

Saigo no onegai kiite ...
Namida to onaji dake kagayaita omoide-tachi ga
Hitomi kara afureru

Tsurai toki wa chotto dake ake sasete
Taisetsu na hako kore kara no chikara ni shitai kara

Anata wo ai shita jibun wo hokori ni omotte itai watashi no taisetsu na hito

Issho ni sugoshita taisetsu na toki muda ja nakatta
Naitari warattari sakende mo
Anata to ita watashi wa kawareta
Ookiku nareta ikiru chikara kureta ..

English translation

Was the time we spent together all for nothing?
Crying, smiling, even screaming ...
I've been able to change since when I was with you
I've gotten strong, so I can live again ...

Your gentle smile overflows into my fingertips
Closing away all of my unease

That attitude I hate ... even all the words you say
Run opposite to what I feel in my heart

Even now I can remember the gentle waves,
Your smiling face ... my one, true love

Please, hear my last wish ...
Only my tears can shine as bright as those memories
As the spill out from my eyes

I open it up just a little when life gets hard
This box that I want to make into my source of strength

I want to be proud of the person I was that loved you, my most important person

Was the time we spent together all for nothing?
Crying, smiling, even screaming ...
I've been able to change since when I was with you
I've grown, so I can live again ...

Music Production Info

I was thinking I wanted to have a new song for the Secret Live on September 13, so I wrote this sometime in September. It's like my kick-off song for 10th style. Since lots of time has passed, I get kind of nostalgic listening and remembering, but I can remember remaking the song over and over when Tomomi's vocal work draws me into the song. The song delicately balances a sense of sorrow with a positive feeling of having overcome, which is fairly well portrayed in the lyrics, almost as if it was mirroring my own experiences of the time. Even now it's burned into my heart as if it was yesterday.

Video Production Info

Sometimes painful things can be the most healing of all. I think there are times like that ... For example, like when you undergo a basic medical treatment instead of seeking temporary relief ...

I think this is a song that uses each and every effective method of care. I was extremely impressed by the expression of even those methods that are full of "pain", the soul-rending melodies and heart-piercing timbres. How do you portray that sort of feeling? That's the theme.

Do you leave it shut, or open it ...
