Ballad
ケツメイシ Lyrics

涙も乾かぬ 二人なら
If we're together, even tears won't dry

いっそ 君を強く抱いて
Rather, I want to hold you tight

夜風に二人 溶け合うまで
Until we meld together in the night breeze

黙ったまま 愛を伝えたい
I want to convey my love in silence

別れた その夜 また夢に戻ろう
Let's return to our dreams on the night we parted

心ゆくまでも 二人で踊ろう
Let's dance together with all our hearts

一人きりは寂しすぎて
Being alone is too lonely

どうしようもなく 君が好きで
I can't help but love you

部屋に残る 君の香りが
Your scent remaining in the room

寂しさを増す 君去った後には
Increases the loneliness after you've gone

だから「次は君の家で」
That's why I say, 'Next time, at your place'

なんて言葉 胸の中 秘めて
These words are hidden in my heart

逢えない夜を数えて
Counting the nights we can't meet

切なさのグラスに愛を注いで
Pouring love into a glass of sorrow

こんなにも愛しく想えたのは君だけ
You're the only one I felt this much love for

僕が「逢いたい」と言ったら
If I say 'I want to see you'

もしも 僕がそう言っていいなら
If it's okay for me to say that

でも 壊れてしまうの恐くて
But I'm afraid it will break

臆病な僕はそらす目
As a cowardly me looked away

離れれば 離れる程に
The more we separate, the further apart we become

気持ちは溢れ 流れるように
My feelings overflow and flow

逢えない夜をいくつ越えて
Crossing over many nights we can't meet

この気持ちは いつ 君に届ける
When will these feelings reach you?

ガラス越しに眠れない街並み
Through the glass, I can't sleep in the cityscape

こんな夜は君に逢いたい
On nights like this, I want to see you

また静けさに 寄り添う程に
As I cuddle up to the silence again

追いかける 甘いキスの余韻
Chasing after the lingering sweetness of a kiss

記憶を超え 響くあの声
Echoing that voice beyond memory

小さく遠く夜空に溶け
It melts away into the small, distant night sky

ため息まじりのバラードじゃ踊れない
I can't dance to this ballad filled with sighs

君への想い 今届けたい
I want to deliver my feelings to you now

一人きりより 二人寄り添い
Rather than being alone, let's be close together

一人きりの日には 電話するよ
On the days I'm alone, I'll call you

寂しいくせに 何食わぬ顔で
Even though you're lonely, you put on a poker face

僕を見送る君が愛しくて
I find it endearing that you see me off

君と出逢ってから僕は
Since I met you

本当の切なさを覚えたよ
I learned the true meaning of sadness

逢いたくて震える
Trembling with the desire to see you

肩を今 押さえながら
While holding my shoulder now

君の影を抱きしめたなら
If I embrace your shadow

一人酔いしれる
I will indulge myself alone

鳴らないケイタイのそば
Beside the silent cellphone

逢えない夜を数えて
Counting the nights we can't meet

切なさのグラスに愛を注いで
Pouring love into a glass of sorrow

こんなにも愛しく想えたのは君だけ
You're the only one I felt this much love for

今も心の中で
Even now, deep within my heart

電話を切ると静寂の雨
When I hang up the phone, there's a silent rain

「またね」と何度も響く夜の果て
'See you later,' echoing countless times at the end of the night

寂しさ隠して 何も言わず
Hiding your loneliness without saying anything

無邪気な声には心が痛む
My heart aches at your innocent voice

逢いたくても 逢えなくて
Wanting to see you, but unable to

この想いは晴れなくて
These feelings won't clear up

あぁ 夜空の向こうの神様
Oh, God beyond the night sky

時を戻して 本物の愛なら
Turn back time, if it's true love
