Japanese	Romaji	English
寂しい夜と淋しい僕で	sabishii yoru to samishii boku de	It's lonely night and a lonely me,
気が付けば世界は二人きり	ki ga tsukeba sekai wa futarikiri	and happened to notice there's just the two of us in the world.
せっかくだから仲良くしようか	sekkaku dakara nakayoku shiyou ka	It's a shame to waste the chance, so shall we be friends?
どっちが多く泣けるか勝負しようか	docchi ga ooku nakeru ka shoubu shiyou ka	Shall we compete on which of us can cry the most?

ねえ、思うんだ	nee, omou nda	Hey, I'm thinking.
君なんていなくても	kimi nante inakute mo	Even if you're not with me,
僕は生きて逝けるかもしれない	boku wa ikite ikeru kamo shirenai	maybe I can still live on.^[1]
ねえ　思うんだ	nee, omou nda	Hey, I'm thinking.
僕なんていなくても	boku nante inakute mo	Even if I'm not with you,
君は生きて生きて生きて	kimi wa ikite ikite ikite	you'll live, live, live …
愛 think so,	ai think so,	Love lets me think so,^[2]

あと3時間の付き合い	ato sanjikan no tsukiai	We have three more hours together.
最後までよろしくね	saigo made yoroshiku ne	Treat me well until the end,
ダメな僕を	dame na boku o	until the time the so-called rising sun
朝日とやらが映し出す時まで	asahi to yara ga utsushidasu toki made	reveals my hopelessness.

ねえ　怖いんだ	nee kowai nda	Hey, I'm scared
君が消えてしまうのが	kimi ga kiete shimau no ga	of you disappearing.
僕が生きていけるわけないじゃないか	boku ga ikite ikeru wake nai ja nai ka	How can you think I can keep on living without you?
ねえ　怖いけど	nee kowai kedo	Hey, I'm scared,
僕なんかを側に	boku nanka o soba ni	but you keep the likes of me by your side
君は置いて撫でて愛でてくれるから	kimi wa oite nadete medete kureru kara	and caress and cherish me—and so …

腫れた目の下の頬の	hareta me no shita no hoho no	Your fingers begin to move along
汚れた川を　君の指が流れ出す	yogareta kawa o kimi no yubi ga nagaredasu	the dirty river on my cheeks below my swollen eyes.

ねえ　思うんだ	nee omou nda	Hey, I'm thinking.
君が生きてるから	kimi ga ikiteru kara	You're still alive,
僕も生きて笑っているんだろうな	boku mo ikite waratte irun darou na	so maybe I'll be living and smiling too.
ねえ　思うんだ	nee omou nda	Hey, I'm thinking.
僕なんていなくても	boku nante inakute mo	Even if I'm not here,
生きていける君ならいらない	ikite ikeru kimi nara iranai	you can go on living, so you don't need me.
愛 think so,	ai think so,	Love lets me think so,

寂しい夜と淋しい僕で	sabishii yoru to samishii boku de	It's lonely night and a lonely me,
気が付けば世界は二人きり	ki ga tsukeba sekai wa futarikiri	and happened to notice there's just the two of us in the world.
