Departure

Lyrics & Music: MAMI
Arrangement: Seiji Kameda

The season of cherry blossoms has come, hasn't it?
In that downtown park too
Not succumbing to the cold, they flutter
And reach full bloom this year too

The lights glowed beautifully
On the nights we walked together, didn't they?
At a short pace, I'm also walking
Steadily, one step at a time

How many months have passed
Since then?
I feel like I'm gonna forget
The cherry blossoms we stopped to looked at

In the season where someone decided
That if there are meetings there will be partings too
We said "See ya later" and gave a big wave
And made sure it wasn't a farewell
I hope the feelings I couldn't put into words
Are able to ride on these flower petals
Even now I still perfectly remember
The things that you taught me

When the season of cherry blossoms passes by
That downtown park
Gets quiet and somewhat lonely
As if it had finished its role

Is it unchanged even now?
The things I don't know have surely increased
Because I don't want to depend on you too much
Two shadows were left behind on that day

You watched over
My first tears and my last smile
Afraid of blinking my eyes
I burned you in my memories over and over
Words aren't enough
When I shouted that selfishness
I just troubled you
I noticed
That you loved me

All these months since then
Have changed me
So I wonder if I look different
The cherry blossoms are beautifully in full bloom

In the season where someone decided
That if there are meetings there will be partings too
We said "See ya later" and gave a big wave
And made sure it wasn't a farewell
I hope the feelings I couldn't put into words
Are able to ride on these flower petals
Now I understand perfectly
What you taught me
Even now...

Sakura no kisetsu ga kita ne
Shoutengai no ano kouen mo
Samusa ni makezu ni HIRAHIRA to
Kotoshi mo mankai wo mukaetemasu

Issho ni aruita yoru wa
Kirei ni akari ga tomotteta ne
Mijikai hohaba de chakuchaku to
Watashi mo ippozutsu aruitemasu

Are kara dorekurai
Tsukihi ga tatta no ka nante sa
Wasuresou ni naru na
Tachidomatte miageta SAKURA

Deai mo areba wakare mo aru nante
Dareka ga kimeta kisetsu ni
Mata ne to ookiku te wo futte
Sayonara ja nai koto tashikameta
Kotoba ni naranai kimochi wa
Kono hanabira ni nosereba ii n da yo
Tte kimi ga oshiete kureta koto
Ima demo chanto oboete iru kara

Sakura no kisetsu ga sugiru to
Shoutengai no ano koen mo
Yakume wo oeta you ni shizuka de
Nandaka sukoshi sabishiku narimasu

Ima demo kawaranai?
Shiranai koto mo kitto fueta ne

Ano hi ni oite kita futatsu no kage

Saisho no namida mo saigo no egao mo
Mimamotte kureta kimi wo
Mabataki suru nomo kowagatte
Nandomo nandomo yakitsuketeta

Kimi ga omotte kureta koto
Kidzukenakatta wake dewa nai kedo

Are kara takusan no
Tsukihi ga watashi wo kaeta kara

Kono hanabira ni nosereba ii n da yo
Tte kimi ga oshiete kureta koto
Ima demo chanto wakatte iru kara
