Futari no heya no tobira wo shimete

Yatto waraeru no yo
Mainichi isogashiku shiteiru wa
Atarashii jinsei wo watashi narini aruiteru

新しい人生を私なりに歩いてる…


I closed the door of our room
I said goodbye to the memories
Since then, it has been half a year
I can finally smile
I have been busy
I am living a new life in my own way

愛もあることなど
気付きもしないほど あなただけ…
見つめてた 愛してた
私のすべてをかけて


I wanted to walk behind you
I wanted to make a future with you
I don’t even realize
That no matter how I much I love you,
These things wouldn’t happen
I still looked at you, loved you and gave everything to you
