kanji & kana

    目の前にいるのに
    あなたは気づいていません
    こんなに大好きなこと
    少しもわかっていません

    湯気の立つココアが
    私を隠してる
    心は見えにくい
    言葉の裏側

    「もうすぐ　卒業式だね」
    それしか　言い出せなかった
    次の話題が　片思いを奪う

    みんなといることで
    あなたの近くにいられる
    冗談ばかり言ってる
    妹みたいな存在

    テーブルのその下
    指を折り数えた
    こうして過ぎる日々
    別れの階段

    「春には　会えなくなるんだね？」
    もう一度　言ってみたけれど
    その旅立ちに大人の顔をした

    落書きされた教科書
    貸したままのハンカチ
    けんかした文化祭
    思い出の続きが
    とめどなく溢れて来ます

    「もうすぐ　卒業式だね」
    それしか　言い出せなかった
    「春には　会えなくなるんだね？」
    もう一度　言ってみたけれど
    次の話題が　片思いを奪う

english translation

    Even though you're here before my eyes,
    You don't notice
    That I like you like this
    Even a little bit you don't know

    The rising steam from the cocoa
    Hides me
    Your heart can't see
    The true meaning of my words

    "Graduation's coming soon, right?"
    Was all I could say
    The next topic snatches away this unrequited love

    By being with everyone,
    I can be close to you
    We're just joking around
    I look like you're little sister

    Under the table,
    We counted by folding fingers
    Thus, the passing days
    Were a stairway to a farewell

    "We won't be able to meet in the spring, right?"
    Once more I tried to say,
    But I put on an adult face for that journey

    The scribbled-on textbook
    The lent handkerchief
    The quarrelsome cultural festival
    These continuing memories
    Endlessly overflow

    "Graduation's coming soon, right?"
    Was all I could say
    "We won't be able to meet in the spring, right?"
    Once more I tried to say
    The next topic snatches away this unrequited love
