Mai Kuraki (JPOP) Mai Kuraki - Time after Time Lyrics

moshi mo kimi ni meguriaetara
nido to kimi no te o hanasanai
haru no owari o tsugeru hana midou
kasumu hana hitohira
yomigaeru omoide no uta
kono mune ni ima mo yasashiku
Time After Time
kimi to deatta kiseki
yuruyakana kaze f__u machi de
sotto te o tsunagi aruita sakamichi
ima mo wasurenai yakusoku
kaze ni kimi no koe ga kikoeru
usurai sae kaeru tooi kioku
kizutsuku kowasa oshirazu chikatta
itsuka mata kono basho de
meguriaou usu beniiro no
kisetsu ga kuru hi ni egao de
Time After Time
hitori hana mau machi de
chirazaru toki wa modoranai kedo
ano hi to onaji kawaranai keshiki ni
namida hirari matte ita yo
kaze mau hanabira ga minamo o naderu you ni
taisetsu ni omou hodo setsunaku...
hito wa mina kodoku to iu keredo
sagasazu ni wa irarenai dare ka o
hakanaku koware yasui mono bakari
oimotomete shimau
Time After Time
kimi to irozuku machi de
deaetara mou yakusoku wa iranai
dare yorimo zutto kizutsuki yasui kimi no
soba ni itai kondo wa kitto

English Version

If I had been able to meet you
I wouldn't have let go of you ever again
The hanamidou [1]
Tells of the end of spring
One petal from this misty flower...
And an old song floats back
Gently, even now, into my heart
Time after time
The miracle of meeting you
In a city where the wind whispered through
We walked a path through the hills hand in hand
And made an unforgettable promise
I can hear your voice in the wind
The thin ice freezes back over [2]
Long ago memoriesNot knowing to be afraid of hurt, I swore
That someday, we'd meet again
Here, in a season of pale crimson
With smiles on our faces
Time after time
Alone in the city of whirling blossoms
Can't return to when things were fine [3]
In this very same place, just like on that day
With my face strewn with tears, I waited for you
Those petals fly in the whirling wind
As if stroking the water's surface
In my anguish, I treasure each and every one...
Everyone says that they're lonely
That they have to keep searching
For someone
But all they end up chasing after
Are the fleeting and fragile
Time after time
If I could have met you in the city of changing hues
I wouldn't need any more promises
More than anyone else
You are so easy to hurt
I want to be with you--this time, forever.
