君の代わりに ♥ Kimi no Kawari ni ♥ Instead of You

あれは悪戯　風の森

are wa itazura kaze no mori

it was some trick in a windy forest

白羽根追って　迷い込んだ

shiro hane otte mayoikonda

I followed white wings and got lost

彼女は儚はかない　夢みたい

kanojo wa hakanai yume mitai

she was like a passing dream

滲む音色　胸に　刺さって

nijimu neiro mune ni sasatte

a fuzzy tone piercing my heart

君の代わりに　抱きしめる

kimi no kawari ni dakishimeru

instead of you I embrace

落としていった歌を

otoshite itta uta o

a lost song

口にしたら　消えてしまうから

kuchi ni shitara kiete shimau kara

for it vanishes as soon as it is sung

天使の君　背にしたまま

tenshi no kimi se ni shita mama

while you the angel are behind me

それは始まり　荊の道

sore wa hajimari ibara no michi

that was the beginning, a thorny road

傷跡付けて　頷くけれど

kizuato tsukete unazuku keredo

I acknowledge the scars that remain

私は汚い　愛せない

watashi wa kitanai aisenai

however, I am dirty, I cannot love

ならせめて　そっと　歌わせて

nara semete sotto utawasete

in which case, at least let me sing softly

君の代わりに　抱きしめる

kimi no kawari ni dakishimeru

instead of you I embrace

落とされ知った身体からだ

otosare shitta karada

a body once known and lost

私には　羽根がないから

watashi ni wa hane ga nai kara

I have no wings

静む街　歩いていく

shizumu machi aruite iku

so I walk the quiet town

君が君じゃなく

kimi ga kimi ja naku

if you were not you

私が私でなければ...

watashi ga watashi de nakereba ...

and I not I ...

君の代わりに　抱きしめる

kimi no kawari ni dakishimeru

instead of you I embrace

敵わない空を

kanawanai sora o

the unreachable sky

それでいいから　側にいたい

sore de ii kara soba ni itai

that is enough for me, so I want to be next to you

刺さったまま

sasatta mama

even while wounded
