Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
電車のマドから	densha no mado kara	Through the windows of the train
桜の木が見えて	sakura no ki ga miete	I saw a cherry tree
懐かしい匂いがした	natsukashii nioi ga shita	Its scent brought good memories back
大きくなったから	ookiku natta kara	When I got older
一人街を出た	hitori machi o deta	I left town alone
ポストに何か入ってた	posuto ni nanika haitteta	Something’s in the mailbox
取るに足らない言葉	toru ni taranai kotoba	Meaningless words
行くわけないレクリエイション	iku wake nai rekurieishon	and recreation I'd never attend,
人を繋ぐものは	hito o tsunagu mono wa	Hearts alone
心だけじゃなかった	kokoro dake ja nakatta	Didn’t connect people
それなら	sore nara	So then,
回覧板を届けに	kairanban o todoke ni	In order to deliver the memo board
隣町に届けに	tonarimachi ni todoke ni	to the neighboring town,
自転車ひとつ漕いで持ってくから	jitensha hitotsu koide motteku kara	I’ll pedal on my bike alone with it in hand
回覧板を届けに	kairanban o todoke ni	I went to deliver the memo board,
世界の終わりを届けに	sekai no owari o todoke ni	I went to deliver the world’s end,
忘れた頃に返して	wasureta koro ni kaeshite	And returned it when I forgot about it,
月曜日	getsuyoubi	On Monday.
夕焼け空から	yuuyake sora kara	The evening glow of the sky
怒られる気がして	okorareru ki ga shite	Looked like it would lose its temper,
久々に料理をした	hisabisa ni ryouri o shita	So I cooked for the first time in a while
私が住む街は	watashi ga sumu machi wa	The city I live in
少し忙しない	sukoshi sewashinai	Is a little restless
ポストがすぐ埋まっちゃう	posuto ga sugu umacchau	And the mailboxes fill up quickly
それを正すことが	sore o tadasu koto ga	Correcting that is
社会の仲間入りの条件	shakai no nakamairi no jouken	The requirement for being a part of society
ポスト入らないなら	posuto hairanai nara	If it won’t fit in the mailbox,
表で待ってようかな	omote de matte you kana	Then I guess I’ll just wait for it outside.
そしたら	soshitara	If that’s the case, then,
回覧板を届けに	kairanban o todoke ni	If, by chance, you arrived,
あなたがもしも届けに	anata ga moshimo todoke ni	In order to deliver the memo board,
来た時一言話せるから	kita toki hitokoto hanaseru kara	I would be able to say just a few words
回覧板を届けに	kairanban o todoke ni	I mean, if you came to deliver the memo board,
来たなら仕方がないでしょ？	kita nara shikata ga nai desho?	that can’t be helped, right?
あなたが好きだったよ	anata ga suki datta yo	I loved you,
好きだったよ	suki datta yo	I loved you!
どうして素直に目を見れないんだろう	doushite sunao ni me o mirenai ndarou	Why can’t I honestly look you in the eyes?
大きくなったのに	ookiku natta no ni	Even though it’s grown bigger
桜が泣いてる	sakura ga naiteru	The cherry tree is shedding tears
まぁ、そんなもんか	maa, sonna mon ka	Well, that’s the way it is
取るに足らない言葉	toru ni taranai kotoba	Meaningless words
行くわけないレクリエイション	iku wake nai rekurieishon	and recreation I'd never attend,
その少し下に	sono sukoshi shita ni	It's the little things below us
あなたの文字があったら	anata no moji ga attara	that are your words of regret,
そしたら	soshitara	If that’s the case, then,
桜並木に春風	sakuranamiki ni harukaze	The spring wind blows at the line of cherry trees
空を見上げて歩くよ	sora o miagete aruku yo	As we walk and look at the sky
話したいことも書いとくから	hanashitai koto mo kaitoku kara	I’ll write down what I want to say
回覧板を届けに	kairanban o todoke ni	I went to deliver the memo board,
世界の終わりを届けに	sekai no owari o todoke ni	I went to deliver the world’s end,
忘れた頃に返して	wasureta koro ni kaeshite	And returned it when I forgot about it,
月曜日	getsuyoubi	On Monday.
