Like a storm of falling cherry blossoms,
Like the glittering rays of the summer sun,
Time passes.
Even my most brilliantly bright memories
Have finally gained a bit of composure.
The many days we shared,
Walking onward together
Now seem
More precious
Than life itself.
There are times we suddenly realize we’re thinking the same thing,
Or sometimes end up humming the same tune.
Those chance moments now mean more to me than anything else in the world.
Yes, it has to be you.
It has to be you.
There were many things I thought I couldn’t stand:
Certain foods, sports, or stuffy social situations.
But when you were the one to recommend them, I was able to effortlessly accept.
Sometimes I would be painfully trapped in thought.
But with a single unassuming phrase, you manage to set my heart free.
There are times when terrible news swoops in, paining our hearts,
But sometimes the slightest things make us roll about with laughter.
The episodes that form each day we live together hold an especially big meaning.
Yes, it has to be you.
It has to be you.
There are times we suddenly realize we’re thinking the same thing,
Or sometimes end up humming the same tune.
Those chance moments now mean more to me than anything else in the world.
Yes, it has to be you.
It has to be you.
Yes, it has to be you.
It has to be you.
