[Verse 1]
近頃夢さえもみない
Chikagoro yume sae mo minai
Lately, I've been unable to dream
あなたがいないことが
Anata ga inai koto ga
Your not being around
日常になってくなんて
Nichijou ni natteku nante
Shouldn't be the ‘norm'
信じられない
Shinjirarenai
It's unimaginable
[Verse 2]
誰にも言えないこと全部
Dare ni mo ienai koto zenbu
Everything I couldn't say
打ち明けてしまえたのは
Uchiakete shimaeta no wa
I laid them bare
あなただけだったのに
Anata dake datta noni
To you alone, even though
隣にはいないの
Tonari ni wa inai no
You weren't next to me
[Pre-Chorus 1]
今も耳に残る Your voice
Ima mo mimi ni nokoru your voice
Even now, your voice lingers in my ears
もう一度呼んで欲しい My name
Mou ichido yonde hoshii my name
I want you to call out my name once more
泣いたままで
Naita mama de
As I cried
位置について
Ichi ni tsuite
I realised where I was
顔を上げてみる
Kao wo agete miru
And lift up my head
[Chorus 1]
Go way
ひとりだって
Hitori datte
Though I'm alone now
意外と高く跳べる私は今
Igai to takaku toberu atashi wa ima
I'll jump over the unexpected and the challenging
再生可能でしょ？ Renewable energy
Saisei kanou desho? renewable energy
Is reincarnation possible? Renewable energy
Maybe yes, maybe no
Way
怖くたって
Kowakutatte
Though I'm scared
勇気をかき集めて 踏み切るのよ
Yuuki wo kakimoro saatsumete fumikiru no yo
I'll gather up courage and take the plunge
采配を振るのは私よ
Saihai wo furu no wa atashi yo
The one in control is me!
Maybe yes, maybe no
[Verse 3]
晴れたら心も晴れて
Haretara kokoro mo harete
If it's clear out, so is my heart
雨なら落ち込む
Ame nara ochikomu
When it rains, I feel down
わかりやすい脆さに
Wakari yasui morosa ni
My sentimentality is so easy to understand
息が苦しくなる
Iki ga kurushiku naru
That breathing becomes painful
[Pre-Chorus 2]
今もあなたなしじゃ So sad
Ima mo anata nashi ja so sad
Even now, it's so sad when you're not around
強く抱きしめてよ All again
Tsuyoku dakishimete yo all again
I want to hold you tightly all again
泣きじゃくって
Nakinaite tattejakutte
Not crying
眠りにつく
Nemuri ni tsuku
Instead falling asleep
目を覚まさなくちゃ
Me wo samasanakucha
I can't wake up
[Chorus 2]
So stay
ひとりだって
Hitori datte
Though I'm alone now
たまにはうまく跳べる日もあるから
Tama ni wa umaku toberu hi mo aru kara
Because there are good days on occasion,
大丈夫だって強がるの
Daijoubu datte tsuyogaru no
Isn't it okay to put up a strong front?
Stay
泣いてたって
Naitetatte
Though I may cry,
時間は容赦なくきっと流れてゆく
Jikan wa yousha naku kitto nagarete yuku
The flow of time, surely, is relentless
再会を待つのはツライの（イタイの）
Saikai wo matsu no wa tsurai no (Itai no)
It's heartbreaking, waiting for us to meet again (It hurts)
Stay with me, stay with me
Ah ah
[Bridge]
何が足りない？
Nani ga tarinai?
What's not enough?
Woo woo
必要なものは
Hitsuyou na mono wa
What I need
差し出してから手に入るの
Sashidashite kara te ni hairu no
Is to reach out take hold of it, right?
悲しいことじゃない
Kanashii koto janai
It's not a sad thing
[Chorus 1]
Go way
ひとりだって
Hitori datte
Though I'm alone now
意外と高く跳べる私は今
Igai to takaku toberu atashi wa ima
I'll jump over the unexpected and the challenging
再生可能でしょ？ Renewable energy
Saisei kanou desho? renewable energy
Is reincarnation possible? Renewable energy
Maybe yes, maybe no
Way
怖くたって
Kowaku tatte
Though I'm scared
勇気をかき集めて 踏み切るのよ
Yuuki wo kaki atsumete fumikiru no yo
I'll gather up courage and take the plunge
采配を振るのは私よ（だけど）
Saihai wo furu no wa atashi yo (Dakedo)
The one in control is me (But)
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay or go, Stay or go
