Jpop Recommend #387 Aitai by Radwimps

あいたい Aitai

Radwimps

This song was released in March 11th, 2021 on YouTube.  Radwimps had released a song on YouTube each year on March 11th.  Those songs were put into an album now and the sales profit of this album will be donated to the Japan Red Cross and other municipal organizations in order to support the victims of natural disasters.

 

It has been 10 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake.  And due to COVID19, there are many people who are apart from their loved ones.  I also haven't been able to see my father and brother for more than a year now.  This song is so close to my feeling.

会いたい　会いたい　会いたい　会いたい
aitai        aitai        aitai        aitai

I wanna see, wanna see, wanna see, wanna see

君    に　会いたい　会いたい　会いたい
kimi ni   aitai        aitai        aitai    

I wanna see you, see you, see you, see you

話したい　  触れたい　抱きたい　見つめたい
hanashitai furetai     dakitai     mitsumetai  

wanna talk to you, touch you, hold you, look at you

これ  を  超える  気持ち  が  今    も　生まれない
kore wo koeru kimochi ga ima mo umarenai
I haven't had any feeling stronger than this yet

  

 
僕     は  生きてる よ　君    の  いない 世界    で
boku wa ikiteru  yo   kimi no inai     sekai de

I keep on living in a world without you

たま に  笑って   みたり　何か     夢中   に  なったり

tama ni waratte mitari nanika muchu ni nattari

Sometimes I laugh and find something I can devote myself

 

 
だけど   君   が　ここ  に いなくても いい 理由

dakedo kimi ga koko ni inakutemo ii    riyuu
but the reason for you not to be here

なんか どこ  にも　見当たらない まま   10  年

nanka doko nimo miataranai  mama jyu-nen

I couldn't find it anywhere and 10 years have passed

 

君    が  吸う はず  だった 酸素  は   今   ごろ

kimi ga suu hazu datta sanso wa ima goro 

The oxygen you were supposed to inhale, I wonder

どこ  の  誰     の  中     を  彷徨って    るんだろう

doko no dare no naka wo samayotte rundarou 

who the hell absorbed it instead?

なんて さ　なんて さ　なんてバカ 真面目     に思ったり  する  のさ

nante sa nante   sa  nante baka-majime ni omottari suru nosa

Sometimes I imagine those things seriously like a fool

いたい　会いたい　会いたい　会いたい
aitai        aitai        aitai        aitai

I wanna see, wanna see, wanna see, wanna see

君    に　会いたい　会いたい　会いたい
kimi ni   aitai        aitai        aitai  

I wanna see you, see you, see you, see you

聞きたい　撫でたい　怒りたい　嗅ぎたい
kikitai     nadetai    okoritai    kagitai
I wanna hear you, caress you, get angry with you, smell your scent

これ  を  超える 気持ち   が  今   も　生まれない

kore wo koeru kimochi ga ima mo umarenai
I haven't had any feeling stronger than this yet

 

君    なら  なんて 言う かな

kimi nara nante  iu   kana 

What would you say if it was you?

君    なら    どうして  いた かな

kimi nara doushite    ita kana

What would you do if it was you?

君    の「大丈夫」    の   ひと言    を

kimi no "daijyoubu" no hitokoto wo

The way you say, "it's OK"

録って おきたかった

totte okitakatta

I should've recorded it

君    が  ここ に  いない と　ダメ な  理由  ばっか

kimi ga koko ni inai    to dame na riyuu bakka

There are so many reasons why you should be here

だけ  を  積み  上げて は    気づけば   早    10   年

dake wo tsumi-agete wa kizukeba haya jyu-nen

I kept on piling them up and 10 years have passed already

君    が いなく なって　ほんの  少し      だけ  軽く

kimi ga inaku natte   honno sukoshi dake karuku

After you were gone, it became a bit lighter 

なった この  地球    で　今日 も  息 を    してる  よ

natta kono chikyu de kyou mo iki wo shiteru yo

on this earth I'm still breathing today

なんて さ　なんて さ　なんて バカ みたい に

nante sa   nante sa   nante baka mitai ni

Like a fool, like a fool

君    が  ここ  に いるんだ よ

kimi ga koko ni irunda   yo

you are still here with me

君    に  もう 一度　出逢える  奇跡 を  ここ  に
kimi ni mou ichido deaeru kiseki wo koko ni

the miracle to meet you again

お願い  しよう　なんて 考えた    けれど

onegai shiyou nante kangaeta keredo

I once wish for it but

それ は  きっと 無理　だって 僕    は  もう  すでに
sore wa kitto muri datte   boku wa mou sudeni

maybe that is impossible because I have

君    の  こと   見つけた  時   に　使っちゃった から
kimi no koto mitsuketa toki ni tsukatchatta kara

used that miracle when I found you

 

 

会いたい　会いたい　会いたい　会いたい
aitai        aitai        aitai        aitai

I wanna see, wanna see, wanna see, wanna see

君    に　会いたい　会いたい　会いたい
kimi ni   aitai        aitai        aitai  

I wanna see you, see you, see you, see you

話したい　触れたい　抱きたい　見つめたい
hanashitai furetai   dakitai     mitsumetai

wanna talk to you, touch you, hold you, look at you

これ  を  超える  気持ち  は  きっと
kore wo koeru kimochi wa kitto

I bet the feeling stronger than this

この 世  の  どこ   にも  ない と　わかって いる よ

kono yo no doko nimo nai to    wakatte  iru  yo

I know that I can't find it anywhere in the world
