Dearest

[masa]

Don't you think it would be good
If we could throw away everything
But what is truly important?
The reality is just cruel

But whenever I feel so
Closing my eyes
I see you smiling

Ah- May the smiling never cease
Until the day when we have
Our eternal sleep, someday

Though people are beings who forget
To my sorrow

The things I can do
For the person I love
For the person by whom I am given love

Ah- At that time we first met
We behaved awkwardly in everything
Taking roundabout ways
Hurting each other

Ah- May the smiling never cease
Until the day when we have
Our eternal sleep, someday

Ah- At that time we first met
We behaved awkwardly in everything
Taking roundabout ways
But we have come to this place

hontou ni taisetsu na mono igai
subete sutete shimaetara

genjitsu wa tada zankoku de

sonna toki itsu datte

waratteru kimi ga iru

Ah- itsu ka eien no
nemuri ni tsuku hi made
dou ka sono egao ga
taema naku aru you ni

Ah- deatta ano koro wa

Ah- itsu ka eien no

Ah- deatta ano koro wa

Though it would be nice if we could throw away everything
Except those things which we truly cherish
The reality seems just plain cruel

At times like that, always
When I close my eyes, you're right by me, smiling

Ah - Until the day comes
When I slip into that eternal sleep
I want for that smile
To remain with me always

It's unfortuante that everyone
Lives, always forgetting

For the sake of someone I should love
For the sake of someone who gives me love
There's something I can do

Ah - When we first met
We were so clumsy at everything
We really took the long way, didn't we?
And wound up hurting each other

Ah - Until the day comes
When I slip into that eternal sleep
I want for that smile
To remain with me always

Ah - When we first met
We were so clumsy at everything
Though we took the long way around
We have arrived
