Paroles et traduction Junichi Inagaki - 僕ならばここにいる

僕ならばここにいる

届きそうな夢に
投げ出したすべては
たかが 2人の人生だけさ
今の君がきっと
求めている愛は
引き止めるやさしさより
見送ることさ

※僕ならばここにいる
君がどこへ行っても
わかるように
僕ならばここにいる
遠くまで抱きしめて
いつまでも
守りたい※

君の華奢な腕に
両方は持てない
愛か仕事か 後にまわして
同じ夢を2人
見れたならよかった
IFばかり並べるより
CERTAINLY 探そう

この僕にできるのは
君がやがて傷つき
帰る日まで
この僕にできるのは
この場所で 待つことさ
いつの日か
迎えよう

悲しみに
どこかで出逢ったなら
思い出せよ
永遠に
愛しているよ

(※くり返し)

I Will Be Here

For a dream that seems within our reach
We gave up everything,
Only the two of us living in poverty.
Right now, I know,
What you truly need,
Is not the false compassion that holds you back,
But the freedom to spread your wings.

※If it were me, I’d be here,
No matter where you went,
So you’d always know,
If it were me, I'd be here,
Holding you close from afar,
Time and time again,
Forever protecting you※

With your fragile arms,
You can’t hold on to both,
Love and work, let one go for now.
If we had both pursued the same dream,
That would have been enough,
But dwelling on ‘ifs’ is pointless,
Let's seek out the ‘definitely’ instead.

All I can do,
Is wait until the day you’re hurt,
And decide to come back.
All I can do,
Is wait for you here,
Someday,
I’ll be waiting to welcome you home.

In sadness,
If we find ourselves there,
Just remember,
For eternity,
I love you.
