君のあどけない横顔
遠く感じる時がある
そっと優しく 口づけても
悲しみが 降り積もる

だけど涙が あふれても
いつも僕は そばにいるから
もしも道に 迷う夜なら
道標はこの愛

君が通り過ぎたあとに
何が残るだろう
たとえ今 言えなくても
きっといつかは…

せつない夜を越えて
君にめぐり逢う
それだけに 生きてきた
哀しいほどに 好きと
囁いてみたい
Please, Don't pass me by

果てしない海に小舟を浮かべ
二人漕ぎ出した愛だったね
穏やかな優しさに包まれて
荒波 乗り越えてきた

君が通り過ぎたあとに
何が残るだろう
もしもいつか振り向いた時
きっと僕だけは…

青い追憶の中
きらめく 想い出
誰もが愛をめざす
夢の旅人たちよ
急がないでくれ
Please, Don't pass me by

せつない夜を越えて
君にめぐり逢う
それだけに 生きてきた
哀しいほどに 好きと
囁いてみたい
Please, Don't pass me by

せつない夜を越えて
君にめぐり逢う
それだけに 生きてきた
哀しいほどに 好きと
囁いてみたい
Please, Don't pass me by

Translation

 

There was a time
when I felt your innocent profile so far
Even when you kissed me softly, kindly
sadness was falling and piling up

But, no matter if tears flow
because I will be always by your side
And if you get lost from the way by night
this love will be your guidepost

What will remain
after you passed by?
Even if I can't say it now
sure, some day...

Passing through painful nights
and meeting by chance with you again
I've lived just for that
I'm trying to whisper
"Sadness likes me"
Please, don't pass me by

It was a love like a little boat
floating in a endless sea where we both row
Surrounded by calm and kindness
raging waves climbed it over

What will remain
after you passed by?
If someday you look back
for sure, it is just me

Inside youth recollection
some sparkling memories
Everyone aims at love
Please, don't hurry up
the travelers' dream
Please, don't pass me by

Passing through painful nights
and meeting by chance with you again
I've lived just for that
I'm trying to whisper
"Sadness likes me"
Please, don't pass me by

Passing through painful nights
and meeting by chance with you again
I've lived just for that
I'm trying to whisper
"Sadness likes me"
Please, don't pass me by...
