友達でいられるなら
こんなに苦しくはなかっただろう
この胸が張り裂けそう
どちらかが傷ついても
赤い血を流しても
僕たちの
恋の予感は
打ち消せない

みんなで遊んだ日
レストラン出てから
偶然 帰る方向が
同じだっただけ

地下鉄への道で
何となくしゃべって
さっきより楽しかった
2人でいたいって
そう思ったのは
いけないことだったのか

今ならば引き返せる
このまま何事もなかったように…
別々の道を行こう
溢れ出す感情が
運命を導くよ
僕たちは
ここから先に
進むだろう

もう少しどこかで
一緒にいたかった
カラオケ行こうなんて
誘ったりして…

1曲も歌わずに
何時間もしゃべって
もっと惹かれ合ったよ
互いの似てるとこ
盛り上がってたら
終電が行ってしまった

友達でいられるなら
こんなに苦しくはなかっただろう
この胸が張り裂けそう
どちらかが傷ついても
赤い血を流しても
僕たちの
恋の予感は
打ち消せない

もう今は引き返せない
こんなにこの胸が高鳴っている
ああ 君を抱きしめたい
友達じゃなくていい
特別な人がいい
未来なんか見えなくたって
キスをしよう

Translation

If we could remain as friends
Then I wouldn’t be in such pain
My chest feels like exploding
Even if we hurt each other
Even if red blood is spilt
This premonition of our love
will never fade away

Hanging out with everyone that day
As we were leaving the restaurant
We just so happened to be going in the same direction

On the way to the station
We somehow started talking
It was much more fun than before
I wanted to be alone with you
Was it wrong to feel this way?

If we turn back now
It will be like nothing happened…
We’ll go our separate ways
These overflowing emotions
Will surely guide us to our destiny
Let us move forward from here

Just for a little while more
I wanted to be with you
So I invited you
‘Let’s go sing karaoke’

Without singing even one song
We talked for so many hours
And our attraction grew
Talking about the things we had in common
We had such a great time
Until we missed the last train

If we could remain as friends
Then I wouldn’t be in such pain
My chest feels like exploding
Even if we hurt each other
Even if red blood is spilt
This premonition of our love
will never fade away

We can’t turn back now
My heart is throbbing so
Ah, I want to hug you
I don’t want to be friends
I want to be your special someone
Who cares about the future
Let’s just kiss
