See You

いつでも会えると思っていたから、伝えたい言葉を明日に残した。「元気してた？」「何してるの？」そんな何気ない会話が、今では大切な記憶。いつものように「じゃあね」と別れた。そのあとにもう一度が来ないことを、あの日の僕は知らなかった。

I thought we'd always have another chance to meet, so I left the words I wanted to say for tomorrow. “Have you been doing okay?” “What have you been up to?” Those ordinary little conversations have become precious memories now. We said “See you” as we always did, never knowing that there would never be another time after that goodbye.

[Verse 1]

昔のメッセージ久しぶりに開いた

「元気してた？」「何してるの？」

そんな話ばかり何度もしていた

もっと大事なこと話せばよかったかな

[Pre-Chorus]

来週も来月もそのうち会えるから

言いたいことなんて

あとでいいと思ってた

[Chorus]

「じゃあね」

いつものように軽く手を振った

また会えると思ってた

だから「さよなら」はいらなかった

We always thought there'd be more time

The days kept moving on

あの日の僕にはそれでよかった

[Verse 2]

最後に見た顔を

もう少し見ていたかった

何を話したかより

どんな顔だったか

今になってひとつずつ

思い出してしまう

忘れたくないものが

あとから増えていく

[Pre-Chorus]

明日もその先も

続いていくと思ってた

だから最後なんて

考えもしなかった

[Chorus]

「じゃあね」

いつものようにまた会うつもりで

特別な言葉なんて

何もいらないと思った

I thought tomorrow would be there

Just like every other day

何も知らない僕は

いつもの道を帰った

[Bridge]

もしもあの日に戻れたら

何を言うんだろう

言い直したいんじゃない

ただもう少し

そこにいる君の顔を見ていたい

[Final Chorus]

「じゃあね」

いつものように軽く手を振った

また会えると思って

何も言わずに帰った

The words I saved for another day

are still waiting here

来週も来月も

そのうち会えると思ってた

でも「じゃあね」のあとに

もう一度は来なかった

[Verse 1]

I opened our old messages

for the first time in a while

“Have you been doing okay?”

“What are you up to?”

We talked about the little things

over and over again

Maybe I should have said

what really mattered

[Pre-Chorus]

There'd be next week, next month

We'd see each other again someday

So whatever I wanted to say

could always wait

[Chorus]

“See you”

I waved like I always did

Thinking we'd see each other again

So there was no need to say goodbye

We always thought there'd be more time

The days kept moving on

Back then

that was enough for me

[Verse 2]

I wish I'd looked at your face

just a little bit longer

Not what we talked about

but the way you looked that day

Now little by little

I find myself remembering

The things I never wanted to lose

keep finding their way back to me

[Pre-Chorus]

I thought tomorrow would come

and the days after that too

I never once imagined

that would be our last time

[Chorus]

“See you”

I waved like I always did

already thinking we'd meet again

There was nothing special to say

nothing that couldn't wait

I thought tomorrow would be there

Just like every other day

Knowing nothing

I walked home the way I always did

[Bridge]

If I could go back to that day

I wonder what I'd say

It's not that I want to take anything back

I just want

a little more time

to look at your face

while you're still there

[Final Chorus]

“See you”

I waved like I always did

thinking we'd meet again

and walked away without saying anything

The words I saved for another day

are still waiting here

There'd be next week, next month

I thought we'd see each other again someday

But after “See you”

there was never another time
