beside the time

歌詞

もう　此処に来てる訳無いと　重々承知してる筈だね
でも　何故か足が勝手にあの日トレースしてるみたいだね

「大胆かつ慎重にね」

それがキミの口癖だった
そう怖がりを肯定してた
全然カッコ良くなんてないけど
それでもキミを好きでいたんだよ

もう　何度同じシチュエーション　故意に作り再現したけど
ああ　なんて無意味な季節通り過ぎた　まるでfast-forward

「こんなのは普通」

それもキミの口癖だった
そう非凡をアピールしてた
ちょっと憧れるトコだけど
それでもキミは強がっていたね

幾千幾万　時を重ねて
走る走る　光の如く
キミと自分　走る速さが
ほんの少し　違ったけれど
ずっと今も　あの頃ほんと
忘れられない輝かしい毎日だった

ずっと手を繋ぎたかった
ずっと本心曝け出したかった
でも壊れるの嫌だった
そんな月並み　乙女な理由

もうキミには届かないけど
今も変わらぬココロモチで
そこで聞き耳たててそうで
だから私　今でも言わないの

Translation

I know there’s no reason for me to come here anymore
but my feet seem to trace the path I took that day.

“Be daring yet cautious…”

That was your catchphrase.
Yes—you recognised your cowardice
and though you weren’t cool at all
I loved you.

I’ve intentionally reproduced the same situation countless times
but, ah… the meaningless seasons have passed by. It’s like it’s on fast-forward.

“This is normal.”

That was your catchphrase, too.
Yes, you boasted that you were a prodigy.
I was on the verge of longing for you
but you were acting tough.

Thousands, tens of thousands of moments have passed.
I run and run, just like the wind.
You and I run
at slightly different speeds
but those days were truly radiant.
I can’t forget them, even now.

I wanted to hold hands with you forever.
I wanted to confess my true feelings the whole time.
But, I was afraid of everything falling to pieces.
What a common, girlish excuse…

My words won’t reach you anymore
but my feelings still haven’t changed.
You seem to be straining your ears
and that’s why, even now, I won’t say it.
