Aoi Shiori (From "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day") - English Cover

Feelings I've scattered through these pages
That I've wanted to tell you a thousand times
Still every page feels so empty
'Cause I just can't write down a single line

I'll use your favourite flower as a bookmark
We'd ride the bikes we borrowed and I remember that spark
Building up the walls, I'd soon forget
'Cause they would crumble the day that we met

We'll follow the skyline and rush to where it meets the sea
We might forget, but right now it's you and me
So tired here under the bluest skies
It's so strange, but I don't know why

That was the moment you shined so brightly
Gathered the sunlight and stayed beside me
But now, we're standing here I know this moment it'll soon end
Somehow I want to tell you "I hope that we can meet again"
There must be something wrong with me

Turn this page as it slips through your fingers
The bracelet you tied with your lips as it lingers
Hey, today's just the same as the other day
Don't care if it rains I'll still call with you anyways

So I tried sending kindness over your way
(Without knowing that the bracelet was lost too)
I hoped that you'd see how you brighten my everyday
(I want you to know, but I can't seem to say to you)
Something really must be wrong with me

Once you choose to let the walls around you down
They will break away with a gentle sound
"That must be love" joking here with you
We would laugh, but I knew that I meant it too

I'm just really glad that I'm on time
The city can sleep while we listen to the bells as they chime
Back to where we'd build those bricks up high
I thought those memories had long passed me by

We'll run to the hills to where they tower just above the sea
A frightening sky I'll face if it's you and me
A drink in my right hand is helping me through
As my left hand is reaching out for you

That was the moment I held you tightly
The winds of spring they won't keep you from me
And now, this time is ours, here beside you's where I'll stay
So for now
Can we pretend that we don't hear the words they always say?
"This day you will soon forget"

That's when reality rushes towards me
There's no more questions, I'm all I can be
And now, we're standing here I know this moment playing again
I know, those words I need to fill the space, our story's end
But still, let's wait to read the ending yet

Turn this page as it slips through your fingers
The bracelet undone with your lips as it lingers
The first train awaits, but heart's racing anyway
Hey, today's just the same as the other days
Something really must be wrong with me
