そっと、さよなら || Gently, Goodbye

歌詞

上手な恋なんて出来ないと
すねてた私が惹かれた人

小さな強がりが重なって
気付けばあなたの不安を誘ってた

大好きでいたかったけど
あなたにはもう会えないよ
もっともっと
本当は上手く甘えたかった

不器用に差し出したあなたの手
照れた横顔が可愛かった

眠れない夜には一晩中
長電話にも付き合ってくれたよね

いつだって優しかった
いつだって愛してくれた
もっともっと
あなたと泣いて笑いたかった

今はまだ無理だけどいつの日にか
新しい幸せに歩き出すよ

悪いのは私でした
責めるしか選べなかった
きっときっと
認めてしまうのが怖かった

どうかどうか私の事を忘れないでね
そっと、さよなら

Translation

I sulked, thinking I couldn’t be a good lover
while I was attracted to someone.

Small shows of courage overlapped
and before I knew it, I aroused your unease.

I wanted to love you
but I can’t see you again.
More and more…
To be honest, I wanted you to fawn over me.

You offered your hand so awkwardly.
From the side, your shy expression was so cute.

During sleepless nights,
you’d even stay with me on the phone all night long.

You were always so kind.
You always loved me.
More, more…
I wanted to cry and laugh with you even more.

It’s still impossible, but someday
I want to start walking with new happiness.

I was at fault.
All I chose to do was blame.
Surely, surely
I was afraid of noticing it.

Please, please, don’t forget me.
Gently, goodbye.
