はしゃいだ　あの夏の日　まるで昨日のようで
最後の海　ながめに来た　いつもの二人の場所に
 hashaida  ano natsu no hi  marude kinou no you de
 saigo no umi  nagame ni kita  itsumo no futari no basho ni
    I danced about and played, on that summer's day
    Feels like it was just yesterday
    We came for the last time to sightsee by the ocean
    Where it was always just the two of us.

どこへも行かないでと　ずっと僕の側から
離れるのを嫌がってた　少女の面影 消せないまま
 doko he mo ikanaide to  zutto boku no soba kara
 hanareru no wo iyagatteta  shoujo no omokage kesenai mama
    'Don't go anywhere,'
    I hated the thought
    Of you leaving my side,
    The little girl in me couldn't go away.

君の心のすべてを　わかってるつもりでいたのは
僕のわがままだったのかも　しれないね
 kimi no kokoro no subete wo  wakatteru tsumori de ita no wa
 boku no wagamama datta no kamo  shirenai ne
    It was my full intention,
    To understand everything in your heart,
    But perhaps that was just
    My own selfishness.

『失くしたものを　私　見つけるために行くのよ　あなたも幸せにね』
君はそう言って　微笑った
あぁ　いつのまに　一人で大人になっていたのだろう
 'nakushita mono wo  watashi  mitsukeru tame ni iku no yo  anata mo shiawase ni ne'
 boku wa sou itte  waratta [1]
 aa  itsunomani  hitori de otona ni natte ita no darou
    'I'm going away to find something that I've lost,
    'So that you'll be happy, too,'
    You said with a smile. [1]
    Oh... When did I suddenly learn to
    Grow up all alone?

今ならやり直す事　できるのかもしれない
心の隅　一瞬だけ浮かんで　波に消された
 ima nara yarinaosu koto  dekiru no kamo shirenai
 kokoro no sumi  isshun dake ukande  nami ni kesareta
    It's still not too late
    To try things over again,
    It rises up for just a moment in my heart,
    And then vanishes in the tide.

無口な君も　どこかそう望んでるようで
淋しそうにうつむいて｢サヨナラ｣とだけつぶやいた
 mukuchi na kimi mo  dokoka sou nozonderu you de
 sabishisou ni utsumuite 'SAYONARA' to dake tsubuyaita
    Somewhere out there, you, too,
    Seem to have hoped for the same thing,
    Casting your head down in solitude
    You simply whispered, 'Goodbye.'

二人過ごした月日が　今 あざやかによみがえるよ
続きのないドラマ演じていたい　一人きりでも
 futari sugoshita tsukihi ga  ima azayaka ni yomigaeru yo
 tsudzuku no nai DORAMA enjite itai  hitorikiri demo
    The days we spent together
    Now come to me so vividly,
    I want to act out this final drama
    Even if it's just by myself.

お互いの夢 きっと　同じと思い込んでた
言葉が少なくても　通じ合える二人だと
ねぇ　ひとつだけ聴かせて欲しい　君は幸せだったの？
 o-tagai no yume kitto  onaji to omoikondeta
 kotoba ga sukunakutemo  tsuujiaeru futari da to
 nee  hitotsu dake kikasete hoshii  kimi wa shiawase datta no?
    Our dreams were surely one and the same
    I was convinced of that,
    And so, even when no words would come
    We could understand one another.
    Hey, I want to ask you just one question:
    Were you happy?

君を乗せた最終　涙でにじんで見えない
次の未来に　走り出した　片道切符で
 kimi wo noseta saishuu  namida de nijinde mienai
 tsugi no mirai ni  hashiridashita  katamichi kippu de
    In the end, you set off
    With a one-way ticket
    Towards a future that my eyes, blurred with tears,
    Cannot see.

きっと幸せになる　最後の約束だから
僕の心の中で　君が小さくなるまで
あぁ　この海に二人の思い出　置き忘れて帰ろう
 kitto shiawase ni naru  saigo no yakusoku dakara
 boku no kokoro no naka de  kimi ga chiisaku naru made
 aa  kono umi ni futari no omoide  okiwasurete kaerou
    I will surely be happy
    For it was my final promise to you,
    So until you become just a speck in my heart...
    Oh, my memories of the two of us, 
    I'll leave and forget in this ocean, and return home.
