Time to Say Goodbye
E.Paparitzou Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

冷たい風が頬を撫でた
季節が移り変わっていく
君と過ごした長い時間も
今変わり始めてる
いつしか心の距離が
遠くなっていく事に
二人とも気づいてた
このまま行けばダメになる事も

Goodbye my lover
あの頃とは
何もかも変わってしまった
Thank you for everything
数えきれない思い出をありがとう
Goodbye baby baby
君の幸せ祈ってるよ
心変わりだとか
嫌いになったとか
そんな浅はかな理由じゃなくて
君は君の、僕は僕の
進むべき道を見つけただけ
今日が最後の夜だと思うと
少し切なくて寂しくて
愛してた日の記憶
忘れぬよう胸にそっと
しまっておくよ
Goodbye my lover
ずっと一緒って約束
果たせなかったけど
Thank you for everything
出会えた事心から感謝するよ
Goodbye baby baby
いつかまた会えるといいな
悲しいほど時は早くて
今年も長い冬がやって来る
そして僕らは飛び立つ
それぞれの場所に
Goodbye my love
Goodbye my...
Goodbye my lover
ずっと一緒って約束
果たせなかったけど
Thank you for everything
出会えたこと心から感謝するよ
Goodbye my lover
あの頃とは
何もかも変わってしまった
Thank you for everything
数えきれない思い出をありがとう
Goodbye baby baby

君の幸せ祈ってるよ
My baby
