Kuraki Mai Time after time Lyrics

moshi mo kimi ni meguriaetara
もしも君に巡り逢えたら
If I had been able to meet you
nido to kimi no te o hanasanai
二度と君の手を離さない
I wouldn't have let go of you ever again
haru no owari o tsugeru hana midou
春の終わり告げる　花御堂
The hanamidou [1] Tells of the end of spring
kasumu hana hitohira
霞む花　一枚
One petal from this misty flower...

yomigaeru omoide no uta
蘇る　思い出の歌
And an old song floats back
kono mune ni ima mo yasashiku
この胸に　今も優しく
Gently, even now, into my heart

Time After Time
Time after time
Time after time
kimi to deatta kiseki
君と出逢った奇跡
The miracle of meeting you
yuruyakana kaze f__u machi de
緩やかな風吹く街で
In a city where the wind whispered through
sotto te o tsunagi aruita sakamichi
そっと手を繋ぎ　歩いた坂道
We walked a path through the hills hand in hand
ima mo wasurenai yakusoku
今も忘れない約束
And made an unforgettable promise

kaze ni kimi no koe ga kikoeru
風に君の声が聞こえる
I can hear your voice in the wind
usurai sae kaeru tooi kioku
薄氷冴返る　遠い記憶
The thin ice freezes back over [2] Long ago memories
kizutsuku kowasa oshirazu chikatta
傷付く怖さを知らず　誓った
Not knowing to be afraid of hurt, I swore
itsuka mata kono basho de
いつかまたこの場所で
That someday, we'd meet again

meguriaou usu beniiro no
巡り逢おう　薄紅色の
Here, in a season of pale crimson
kisetsu ga kuru hi ni egao de
季節が来る日に　笑顔で
With smiles on our faces

Time After Time
Time after time
Time after time
hitori hana mau machi de
ひとり　花舞う街で
Alone in the city of whirling blossoms
chirazaru toki wa modoranai kedo
散らざるときは戻らないけれど
Can't return to when things were fine [3]
ano hi to onaji kawaranai keshiki ni
あの日と同じ　変わらない景色に
In this very same place, just like on that day
namida hirari matte ita yo
涙ひらり　待っていたよ
With my face strewn with tears, I waited for you

kaze mau hanabira ga minamo o naderu you ni
風舞う花びらが　水面を撫でるように
Those petals fly in the whirling wind As if stroking the water's surface
taisetsu ni omou hodo setsunaku
大切に想うほど　切なく．．．
In my anguish, I treasure each and every one...

hito wa mina kodoku to iu keredo
人は皆孤独と言うけれど
Everyone says that they're lonely
sagasazu ni wa irarenai dare ka o
探さずにはいられない　誰かを
That they have to keep searching For someone
hakanaku koware yasui mono bakari
儚く壊れやすいものばかり
But all they end up chasing after
oimotomete shimau
追い求めてしまう
Are the fleeting and fragile

Time After Time
Time after time
Time after time
kimi to irozuku machi de
君と色ずく街で
If I could have met you in the city of changing hues
deaetara mou yakusoku wa iranai
出逢えたら　もう約束はいらない
I wouldn't need any more promises
dare yorimo zutto kizutsuki yasui kimi no
誰よりもずっと　傷付きやすい君の
More than anyone else You are so easy to hurt
soba ni itai kondo wa kitto
そばにいたい今度は　きっと
I want to be with you--this time, forever.

Time after time
You know you will be mine
