If you notice me and through the crowd
If you shouted me I’ll talk to about
If you noticed me through the crowd…
If you shouted at me, I’d talk to you.
sakihokoru kisetsu no iro naze ka kokoro wo kuruosu
tooku inishie no kioku ga anata wo motometeru
For some reason, the colours of this season, in full bloom, send my heart mad.
My memories of the distant past call for you.

mienai ashiato tadotte anata wo kanjiteru
My urges well up, and the commotion in my chest does not subside.
I follow invisible footprints, feeling you.

Feel my love, only for you. Feel my love.

I don’t want to be rude by digging up an old translation like this, but this song was later re-recorded for REUNION entirely in English. The lyrics were apparently edited a bit by Laura April for the re-recording, but in essence it seems to remain the same. At the very least, it is interesting to see how the translation and re-recording compare:
If you notice me now through the crowd
If you call for me, I’ll tell you about..
I don’t know why my heart is racing now
I am in the colors of the season
Memories from ancient times is
somehow wanting you and calling out to you
And I just can’t stop, I’m driven away
Now my heart is restless, and lost in time
Following transparent footprints
I’m feeling you are growing in my heart
Feel my love, Never get enough, Feel my love
Rainy days, sunny days, cloudy days, and everyday
Someday I’ll find, someday we find each other
Gonna be together, unlike any other
Destiny of you
Now & forever
Just standing here under the stars
Now & forever
We tried to believe eternally
Now & forever
Now everything is so bright
But never gonna let you know
Now & forever
We made a promise secretly
Now & forever
But do you remember like I do?
Now & forever
The days that we had each other
But never gonna let you know
My love for you is growing day by day
Hold it close so I will not lose it
Birds will sing a song that reminds me of you
Some days it makes me wanna cry
Feel my love, Never get enough, Feel my love
Rainy days, sunny days, cloudy days, and everyday
Someday I’ll find, someday we’ll find each other
Gonna get through, in a dream forest
Destiny of you
Now & forever
Just standing here under the stars
Now & forever
We tried to believe eternally
Now & forever
Now everything is so bright
But never gonna let you know
Now & forever
We made a promise secretly
Now & forever
But do you remember like I do?
Now & forever
The days that we had each other
But never gonna let you know
No other way you’ll find
I’m faraway
So is this our true love?
You will find me
Come back to me
Please remember me

Nothing rude about it at all! I mean, one a translation’s out there, it’s out there – since new people discover my blog all the time, every translation is ‘new’ to an extent (^_^) It’s definitely interesting to see how translations designed to be sung differ from those designed to be read.
