Romaji

Yakusoku jikan sugita ne gomen
Kousoku douro juutai no naka
Memorii daiyaru aseru migite wa
Itoshii kimi e denpa tobasu
 
Demo kikoete kita no wa rusuden no koe uso!
Iru hazu to itta ja nai?

Ichiban taisetsu na koto ga umaku tsutawaranai
Ashimoto sukuwareteru you de surechigai toomawari
Kakko warui
Ichiban taisetsu ni shitai to sou negau kimochi
Boku kara kimi e no message
Tama ni wa ne iwanakucha
Sunao na kokoro no I love you

Shinjite itemo ki ni natte kuru
Masaka hoka no dareka to doraibu?
Yokaranu koto wo kangaenagara
Kousoku orite uramichi hashiru

Moshi inakatta nante omottari suru
Ah~ kamisama boku ni yuuki wo kudasai

Itsu demo kakko yoku tsukiau nante dorama mitai
Risou to genjitsu wa chigau
Sonna koto iu nante shirakeru kedo
Ichiban taisetsu ni shitai to sou negau kimochi
Boku kara kimi e no message
Tama ni wa ne iwanakucha
Ano koro no you ni I love you

Mou sugu da ne sakamichi wo noboreba
Kimi no heya ga mieru basho sa
Yuube no kenka nara gomen
Itsumo da yo iisugite koukai suru
Ichiban taisetsu ni shitai to sou negau kimochi
Boku kara kimi e no message
Fudan wa ne ienakute nayamasetari suru kedo
Ichiban taisetsu na koto ga umaku tsutawaranai
Ashimoto sukuwareteru you de surechigai toomawari
Kakko warui
Ichiban taisetsu ni shitai to sou negau kimochi
Boku kara kim ie no message
Tama ni wa ne iwanakucha
Sunao na kokoro no I love you

English

It’s past the time I promised I’d come, I’m sorry
I’m stuck in traffic on the freeway
My right hand is hurriedly punching your number in my speed dial
To send a message to my beloved you

But all I get is your answerphone – no way!
Didn’t you say you’d be there?

I can’t say the most important things properly
What I thought would say me turns out to be the long way
How dumb of me
I pray that I can treasure you more than anything else
This is a message from me to you, to tell you that
Sometimes I’ve got to say it
Straight from the heart, “I love you”

I trust you, but I’m getting worried
Are you out driving with someone else?
My thoughts aren’t good
As I get off the freeway and drive along the back roads

I start thinking maybe you weren’t there
Ah~ God, give me courage

Doing everything gracefully is something that happens in TV dramas
Ideals are different from reality
Saying something like that spoils the mood
But I pray that I can treasure you more than anything else
This is a message from me to you, to tell you that
Sometimes I’ve got to say it
Like I did back then, I love you

Soon, when I get up the hill
I’ll come to the place where I can see your room
I’m sorry we fought last night
I always say too much and then regret it
I pray that I can treasure you more than anything else
This is a message from me to you, to tell you that
Normally I can’t say it and it worries you
But I can’t say the most important things properly
What I thought would say me turns out to be the long way
How dumb of me
I pray that I can treasure you more than anything else
This is a message from me to you, to tell you that
Sometimes I’ve got to say it
Straight from the heart, “I love you”
