Jpop Recommend #318 Tell Me Why by ReN

Tell Me Why

ReN


Released in June, 2017 this song is one of the songs in the album, "LIFE SAVOR".  This album is his 2nd album.


I first learned about this artist with the song, "Falling".  As I continued to listen his other songs, I found this song.  Later I also found out that he is a son of a legendary singer-songwriter, Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi.  He seems to have quite an interesting career.

そこ に あった はず の  君   の 笑顔‬

it is like a pieces of glass
‪君   と いう  形     で  しか   埋められない‬
kimi to iu katachi de shika umerarenai

What did I do wrong?

‪Wish I could stay by your side forever ‬

kimi wo tori-modoseru no nara nani mo iranai
If I can get you back, I won't need anything


‪君    と 歩いた  この  長い      道   を‬

The long road I have walked with you
‪一人  思い出   拾う   ように 歩いてる‬
hitori omoide hirou youni aruiteru 
Now I walk alone as if to pick up the memories
‪君     の  温もり     感じた  この    左手    に‬
kimi no nukumori kanjita kono hidarite ni 
On my left hand which used to feel your warmth
‪冷たい      夜風     が  指   の    隙間    を  すり 抜ける‬
tsumetai yokaze ga yubi no sukima wo suri-nukeru
Now cold night wind runs through the space between my fingers
‪もしも     過去  に   戻れる     の  なら‬
