Nagai aida matasete gomen 
Mata kyuu ni shigoto ga haitta 
Itsumo issho ni irarenakute 
Samishii omoi wo saseta ne 
Aenai toki 
Juwaki kara kikoeru 
Kimi no koe ga kasureteru 
Hisashiburi ni atta toki no 
Kimi no egao ga mune wo saratte iku 
Ki zuita no anata ga konna ni 
Mune no naka ni iru koto 
Ai shiteru masaka ne 
Sonna koto ienai 
==
I'm sorry I made you wait so long 
Once again I had to work 
We can't always be together 
And I caused you to have sad memories 
When we can't see each other 
I can hear your voice 
Become hoarse on the telephone 
Your smile when we meet after a long time 
Puts my heart to shame 
I've realized how much 
You're in my heart 
I love you 
But I couldn't possibly say such a thing 

Anata no sono kotoba dake wo shinjite 
Kyou made matte ita watashi 
Egao dake wa wasurenai you ni 
Anata no soba ni itai kara 
Waratteru anata no soba de wa 
Sunao ni nareru no 
Ai shiteru demo masaka ne 
Sonna koto ienai 
==
I only believe your words 
I've waited for them 
I won't forget your smile 
I want to be by your side 
When you're laughing and 
I'm by your side, I can be meek 
I love you 
But I couldn't possibly say such a thing 
I've realized how much 
You're in my heart 
I love you 
But I couldn't possibly say such a thing 
When you're laughing and 
I'm by your side, I can be meek 
I love you 
But I couldn't possibly say such a thing 
I've realized how much 
You're in my heart 
I love you 
But I couldn't possibly say such a thing 

Ki zuita no anata ga konna ni 
Mune no naka ni iru koto 
Ai shiteru masaka ne 
Sonna koto ienai 
Waratteru anata no soba de wa 
Sunao ni nareru no 
Ai shiteru demo masaka ne 
Sonna koto ienai 
Ki zuita no anata ga konna ni 
Mune no naka ni iru koto 
Ai shiteru masaka ne 
Sonna koto ienai 
Waratteru anata no soba de wa 
Sunao ni nareru no 
Ai shiteru demo masaka ne 
Sonna koto ienai
