Toki Ni Ai Wa

In Time, Love Is

Toki Ni Ai Wa

It always starts with love, though it can be fickle
はじまりはいつもあいそれがきまぐれでも
Hajimari wa itsumo ai sore ga kimagure demo
Just shining blue, without a trace of lies
ただあおくきらめいてうそのかけらもなく
Tada aoku kirameite uso no kakera mo naku

Those distant days, we were watching each other
とおざかるひびたちよふたりをみていたね
Toozakaru hibi-tachi yo futari wo mite ita ne
Only hurting, hurting each other, stuck in place
きずつくだけきずついてたちつくすふたりを
Kizutsuku dake kizutsuite tachitsukusu futari wo

In time, love gathers strength
ときにあいはちからつきて
Toki ni ai wa chikara tsukite
Even if it seems to crumble away
くずれおちてゆくようにみえても
Kuzureochite yuku you ni mietemo
Love will gently embrace us both
あいはやがてふたりをやさしくだいてゆく
Ai wa yagate futari wo yasashiku daite yuku

The town is already fading into dusk, the wind sways the trees
まちはもうたそがれてかぜはかみをゆらす
Machi wa mou tasogarete kaze wa kami wo yurasu
... It feels like... I'm still in love since then
あのころより...あいしているみたい
Ano koro yori... Ai shite iru mitai

Those rushing days, we know
はしりくるひびたちよぼくらはしっている
Hashiri kuru hibi-tachi yo bokura wa shitte iru
The sound of new storms approaching
あたらしいいくつものあらしのおとずれを
Atarashii ikutsumo no arashi no otozure wo

In time, love gathers strength
ときにあいはちからつきて
Toki ni ai wa chikara tsukite
Even if it seems to crumble away
くずれおちてゆくようにみえても
Kuzureochite yuku you ni mietemo
Love will gently embrace us both
あいはやがてふたりをやさしくだいてゆく
Ai wa yagate futari wo yasashiku daite yuku

In time, love gathers strength
ときにあいはちからつきて
Toki ni ai wa chikara tsukite
Even if it seems to crumble away
くずれおちてゆくようにみえても
Kuzureochite yuku you ni mietemo
Love will gently embrace us both
あいはやがてふたりをやさしくだいてゆく
Ai wa yagate futari wo yasashiku daite yuku

You’ve decided to believe in me
あなたはぼくのことをしんじることにきめて
Anata wa boku no koto wo shinjiru koto ni kimete
Just quietly staring at me, nostalgically.
ただだまってなつかしくぼくをみつめている
Tada damatte natsukashiku boku wo mitsumete iru
