MOON

translation:

The night we met was lost in tumult
and while we switched between dreams and reality it disappeared like an illusion
The moon that day was so far and with my memory still vague,
your shape was becoming blurry so I should have been able to forget

I'm sorry that my wounded heart didn't even have the courage
to softly wipe these tears you first showed me

Hey, I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please don't ask anymore
with such sad eyes, in a shaking voice,
"Do you love me?"

We looked up together at the moon we thought we could reach if we lifted our hands
It was too beautiful and painful that it seemed I would burst into tears

I closed my eyes and vowed if I had a prayer come true,
I thought it would be that I may never need anything, anything more than that

Hey, I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please smile for me
and let me hear you say that you're happy
once again

Hey, I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please don't ask anymore
with such sad eyes, hiding your shaking voice,
"Hey, do you love me?"

I'll give you a pleasant song
so that you'll believe in eternity eternally
So please smile for me
and let me hear you say that you're happy
once again

kanji:

僕達が出逢った夜は喧騒の中に紛れて
夢とリアルを行き来しながら幻のように消えてった
あの日の月は遠すぎて記憶も曖昧なままで
君の姿はぼやけてたから忘れられるはずだったんだ

傷つけた心が初めて見せた涙を
この手でそっと拭う勇気もなくってごめんね

ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからもうそんなに悲しい瞳で
震える声で聞かないで
「愛してる？」

手を伸ばせば届きそうな月をふたりで見上げたね
綺麗すぎて苦しかったから泣き出しそうになってたんだ

目を閉じて誓った祈りが叶うのならば
もうそれ以上他には何もなんにもいらない

ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからどうか君は笑っていて
幸せだよと聞かせて
もう一度

ねぇ優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからもうそんなに悲しい瞳で
震える声を隠して聞かないで
「ねぇ愛してる？」

優しい歌を君にあげるよ
永遠を永遠に信じられる様に
だからどうか君は笑っていて
幸せだよと聞かせて
もう一度
