What is forever love? Lyrics

this one was slightly easier than Lelio but not as easy as NOW & 4EVA, the chinese copyright made transcribing it a lot harder so enjoy and i would love to see corrections and what you guys think!

My original Romaji - By Ear
Spoiler:
erande (kamo) no wa, shinjiteta jibun na (nani ne)
eraba nakatta honnou (wakanai) wo kangaete iru

kimi ni yoku ni ita yokogao kyou ni da yo
iki wo suru no (wo) iishun wa wasureta

shimatta kara kizuku nante tsukai furusarata
kotoba wo imi ima (sashiuna) nante

What is forever love moshi ano hi
What is forever love kimi (mutemo)
hanasazu ni (ita nara) ima koro waratta (ita kara)

What is forever love moshi ano hi
What is forever love madashi kara
sunao ni nareta (kara/nara) mirai wa ??? no kana


kimi wa itsudemo ????? ichiban
daiji na basho ni itsutzukerun darou

?? nai koto ?? (mezukamo) ?? oboteru
jikan dake ga subete wo yasashiku suru

What is forever love? ima watada
What is forever love? bokutachi wa
(dou su) ni ittemo nani mo mie naku natta shimatta yo

What is forever love? ima watada
What is forever love? sore zore (mo/no)
atarashi michi (muni) wa shiawase ????

What is forever love? itsu no hi ka
What is forever love? bokutachi wa
kore (ya) saigo no ? oboeteru ai ni de (aieru no kana)

What is forever love? itsu no hi ka
What is forever love? ?? ya ii ni
shiawase ni sakebu yotte ?? dekiru to ni wa


erande (kamo) no wa, shinjiteta jibun na (nani ne)
eraba nakatta honnou (wakanai) wo kangaete iru


Romaji from Kanji
Spoiler:
Eranda koro wa shinjiteta jibun na no ni ne
Erabana katta honnou bakari wo kangaete iru

Kimi ni yoku nita yokogao kyou mita yo
Iki wo suru no wo isshun wasureta

Ushinatta kara kidzuku nante
Tsukai furu sareta kotoba no imi
Ima sae shiru da nante

What is forever love?
Moshi ano hi
What is forever love?
Kimi no te wo hanasazu ni ita nara
Imagoro waraete ita ka na

What is forever love?
Moshi ano hi
What is forever love?
Watashi kara
Sunao ni naretara mirai wa chigatta no kana


Kimi was itsu demo kono mune no ichiban
Daijina basho ni tsudzukerun darou
Nani ge nai kotoba bakari
Naze ka mada oboeteru
Jikan dake ga subete wo yasashiku suru

What is forever love?
Ima wa tada
What is forever love?
Bokutachi wa
Toosugite nani mo meinaku natte shimatta yo

What is forever love?
Ima wa tada
What is forever love?
Sorezore no atarashii michinori ga
Shiawase de arimasu you ni to


What is forever love?
Itsu no hi ka
What is forever love?
Bokutachi wa kore ga saigo da to omoeru ai ni de aeru no kana

What is forever love?
Itsu no hi ka
What is forever love?
Otagai ni shiawase mitsuketa yotte houkoku dekiru ii na


Eranda koro wa shinjiteta jibun na no ni ne
Erabana katta kata bakari wo kangaete iru

選んだ頃は信じてた自分なのにね
選ばなかった方ばかりを考えている

君によく似た横顔今日見たよ
息をするのを一瞬忘れた

失ってから気付くなんて
使い古された言葉の意味
今更知るだなんて

What is forever love? 
もしあの日
What is forever love ? 
君の手を離さずにいたなら
今頃笑えていたかな

What is forever love?
もしあの日
What is forever love?
私から
素直になれたら未来は違ってたのかな

君はいつでもこの胸の一番
大事な場所に居続けるんだろう
何気ない言葉ばかり
何故かまだ覚えてる
時間だけが全てを優しくする

What is forever love?
今はただ
what is forever love?
僕たちは
遠すぎて何も見えなくなってしまったよ

What is forever love?
今ただ
what is forever love?
それぞれの新しい道のりが
幸せでありますようにと

What is forever love?
いつの日か
What is forever love?
僕たちはこれが最後だと思える愛に出会えるのかな
What is forever love? いつの日か
What is forever love?
お互いに幸せ見つけたよって報告出来るいいな

選んでた頃は信じてた自分なのにね
選ばなかった方ばかりを考えている


English Translation (Thanks to tenshi no hane !)
Spoiler:
I believed in my decision back then
But now I am only thinking about what I didn't choose

I saw someone who looked just like you today
And I forgot to breathe for a second

"You don't realize what you have until it's gone"
I now understand the meaning of those clichéd words
But it's too late

(What is forever love?) If I hadn't let go of
(What is forever love?) Your hand that day
Would we be smiling now?

(What is forever love?) If I had been able
(What is forever love?) To speak honestly that day
Would our futures have been different?

You will always stay in the most important place
In my heart

For some reason I can only still remember your casual remarks
Only time makes everything softer

(What is forever love?) Now we are simply
(What is forever love?) Too far apart
And we've become blind

(What is forever love?) Now I simply hope
(What is forever love?) We will find happiness
On our separate paths

(What is forever love?) I wonder if someday
(What is forever love?) We can find the one
Who we think will be our last love

(What is forever love?) I hope someday
(What is forever love?) We will be able to
Tell each other "I've found happiness"

I believed in my decision back then
But now I am only thinking about what I didn't choose

Those remind me of Why... lyrics a little, the whole "if back then i had the courage to tell you how much i loved you maybe today we'd still be together" thing
Thanks for the translation

This is totally about her time with Manny. I think she's taken the time to reflect on that experience, and we're seeing more that she realizes you never truly let go of someone you loved, even when the two of you are far apart.

Man, the song itself is already great; but the lyrics kill me. They're so sad.

I love sad songs with a good beat, kind of what Robyn does. This is a good example of that!

Here's what I hear in the spoken parts:

Quote:
I will never forget the best time of my life
Memories filled with laughing and smiling
and you (?)
the time when I was your woman

We can't see each other's future anymore
'cause ___ (?) too far away...
_________ (?)
but I will always hope that you're happy and have (?) a beautiful life.

I think the last part is "'cause we moved too far away too long ago".

As for the (?)... it's either "and you" or "with you".

Fixed! Good ear. I'm still on the fence about the (?) parts. It definitely makes the most sense but it doesn't really sound like what she's enunciating.

Quote:

with you
the time when I was your woman

We can't see each other's future anymore
'cause [we moved] (?) too far away
too long ago
but I will always hope that you're happy [and have] (?) a beautiful life.

I think this song will be placed together with Merry Go Round on the tracklist. Both are upbeat songs with sad lyrics.
Nice lyrics btw. <3

Or possibly Tomoya Nagase - like that she was sure breaking up with him was the right thing to do, but since him she's had failed relationship after failed relationship, and she's wondering if they really did the right thing. The doubt would be understandable.
