夕暮れの街角 のぞいた喫茶店
微笑み見つめ合う 見覚えある二人
あの娘が急になぜか きれいになったのは
あなたとこんなふうに 会ってるからなのね

好きだったのよあなた 胸の奥でずっと
もうすぐわたしきっと あなたをふりむかせる

気のないそぶりして 仲間に加わった
テーブルをはさんで あなたを熱く見た

あの娘がふられたと 噂にきいたけど
わたしは自分から 云いよったりしない
別の人がくれた ラヴ・レター見せたり
偶然をよそおい 帰り道で待つわ

好きだったのよあなた 胸の奥でずっと
もうすぐわたしきっと あなたをふりむかせる

好きだったのよあなた 胸の奥でずっと
もうすぐわたしきっと あなたをふりむかせる
あなたをふりむかせる

Yuugure no machikado nozoita kissaten
Hohoemi mitsume au mi oboe aru futari
Ano ko ga kyuu ni nazeka kirei ni natta no wa
Anata to konna fuu ni atteru kara na no ne

Suki datta no yo anata mune no oku de zutto
Mousugu watashi kitto anata wo furi mukaseru

Ki no nai soburi shite nakama ni kuwawatta
Teeburu wo hasande anata wo atsuku mita

Ano ko ga furareta to uwasa ni kiita kedo
Watashi wa jibun kara ii yottari shinai
Betsu no hito ga kureta ravu retaa misetari
Guuzen wo yosooi kaerimichi de matsu wa

Suki datta no yo anata mune no oku de zutto
Mousugu watashi kitto anata wo furi mukaseru

Suki datta no yo anata mune no oku de zutto
Mousugu watashi kitto anata wo furi mukaseru
Anata wo furi mukaseru

Translation

 

Peeking into the cafe at the street corner at twilight
I saw two familiar people smiling at each other
Suddenly, that girl just seemed so beautiful
Was it because she had met you?

I’ve always loved you deep in my heart
Soon, I’ll surely make you look at me

Behaving as usual, I joined in our group of friends
Inserting myself at the table, I stared at you with passion

I heard rumors that you were dumped by her
But I won’t say that to you personally
I’ll show you love letters I received from others
Wait for you along the road home, pretending that it’s pure coincidence

I’ve always loved you deep in my heart
Soon, I’ll surely make you look at me

I’ve always loved you deep in my heart
Soon, I’ll surely make you look at me
Make you look at me
