Lyrics and translation Masayoshi Yamazaki - 灯りを消す前に

灯りを消す前に

眠る前に一つだけ
確かめておきたいこと
一日が終わるときに
灯りを消す前に
目を閉じた暗闇に
君の姿映ればいい
何気ない言葉でも
僕だけに響けばいい
たとえば今日という日に
少しの寂しさ残したとしても
僕らの選んだことが
本当はどこか間違ってたとしても
もし心病めるときも
同じ痛み刻めればいい
人波にのまれそうでも
君の手さえ離さなきゃいい
たとえば明日という日に
悲しみの影を落とすことになっても
確かに言えることは
ただ一つだけこんなに愛してる
眠る前に一つだけ
確かめておきたいこと
灯りを消す前に
瞳を閉じる前に

Before Turning Off the Light

Before I fall asleep, there's just one thing
I want to make sure
When the day is done
Before I turn off the light
In the darkness after I close my eyes
I hope to see your face
Even the most ordinary words
Are like music to my ears
Like today, for example
Even if I'm left with a touch of loneliness
The choices we've made
Might have been wrong somehow
If my heart ever fails
I hope we can share the same pain
Even if we get swept away by the crowd
As long as I hold on to your hand, it'll be fine
Like tomorrow, for example
Even if shadows of sadness fall
One thing I can say for sure
Is that I love you, more than anything else
Before I fall asleep, there's just one thing
I want to make sure
Before I turn off the light
Before I close my eyes
