Ai ga Mienai
words by Sakai Izumi

Japanese

Ano koro wa tanoshikatta nakama mo ookute
Tawaimonaku nanjikan mo hanashiteta
Asobi no kaeri itsumo shuuden ni noriokureta ne
Natsukashii na ano DOONATSU-ya-san

Asa ichiban no shihatsu de kaeru watashi wa hidoi kao
Dekakete iku toki no watashi towa betsujin no kao
Kono goro aeba kenka bakari
Issho ni isugi kana

Ai ga mienai ima no jidai
Machi wa minna isogiashi de
Kitto daremo ga kodoku nano ni
Anata mo watashi mo sore wo misenai

Hitori de ikite yuku hodo tsuyokunai kuse ni
Tokidoki hitori ni naru no ga suki ni naru
Ichiban kanjin na hito ni naze yasashiku dekinai no?
Hoka no hito niwa ki wo tsukau no ni

Denwa wo kitta nowa dotchi ga saki watashi ga saki
"Mou wakareyou" to iidashita nowa anata ga saki
Yume wo suteru noga otona nara
Otona ni naka naritaku nai

Ai ga mienai mou kore ijou
Anata no umi oyogenai wa
Anna fuu ni anata no koto
Aiseru hito wa watashi shika inai!

Ai ga mienai mou kore ijou
Anata no umi oyokenai wa
Demo watashi no shiawase no kagi
Nigitte iru nowa anata yo

Ai ga mienai Only you forever
Subete wakariaenakutemo
Yasashisa yori KISU ga hoshii
Shakunetsu no natsu ni odorasete

English

It was so fun back them, we even had lots of friends
We'd talk casually for countless hours
And on the way home, we'd always miss the last train
That donut shop is so nostalgic

As I return on the morning's first train, my face is a mess
I'm a different person from the one that left home
If we met now, all we'd do is fight
I wonder if we've been living together too long

I can't see the love anymore
The entire town is in such a hurry
I'm sure everyone is lonely
But neither you nor me will show it

I can go on living alone, as weak as I am
Because once in a while I start to enjoy being alone
Why is it that I can't be nicer to people important to me?
Especially since I'm so wary of other people

Who ended the phone call first? It was me
But the one who said "let's break up" first was you
If being grown up means throwing away dreams
I don't want to ever grow up

I can't see the love, I can't go on
Swimming in your sea any longer
There's no one besides me
Who can love you that way

I can't see the love, I can't go on
Swimming in your sea any longer
But the one holding the key
To my happiness is you

I can't see the love, only you forever
Even if we don't know everything about each other
More than your kindness, I want your kiss
Let me enjoy this red hot summer
