Текст Utada Hikaru – Final Distance

Romanized:

Ki ni naru noni kikenai
Oyogi tsukarete kimi made mukuchi ni naru

Aitai noni mienai nami ni osarete

Tokire nai you ni Keep it going, baby
Onaji kimochi janai nara tell me
Muri wa shinai shugi demo
Sukoshi nara shite mite mo ii yo

I wanna be with you now
Futari de distance chijimete
Ima nara maniau kara
We can start over
Hitotsu ni wa narenai
I wanna be with you now
Itsu no hi ka distance wo
Dakishimerareru you ni nareru you ni nareru yo
We can start sooner
Yappari I wanna be with you

Hitokoto de konna nimo kizutsuku kimi wa
Kodoku wo oshiete kureru

Mamorenai toki Keep on trying, baby
Yakusoku toori janai kedo trust me
Muri wa shinai shugi demo
Kimi to nara shite mite mo ii yo

I wanna be with you now
Futari de distance mitsumete
Ima nara maniau kara
We can start over
Kotoba de tsutaetai

Japanese:

気になるのに聞けない
泳ぎつかれて君まで無口になる

会いたいのに見えない波に押されて
また少し遠くなる

途切れないように Keep it going, baby
同じ気持ちじゃないなら tell me
無理はしない主義でも
少しならしてみてもいいよ

I wanna be with you now
二人でdistance縮めて
今なら間に合うから
We can start over
ひとつにはなれない
I wanna be with you now
いつの日かdistanceも
抱きしめられるようになれるよ
We can start sooner
やっぱり I wanna be with you

ひとことでこんなにも傷つく君は
孤独を教えてくれる

守れない時 Keep on trying, baby
約束通りじゃないけど
Trust me 無理はしない主義でも
君とならしてみてもいいよ

I wanna be with you now
二人でdistance見つめて
今なら間に合うから
We can start over
言葉で伝えたい
I wanna be with you now
そのうちにdistanceも
抱きしめられるようになれるよ
We should stay together
やっぱり I need to be with you

English translation:

Even though I worry about it, I can’t ask
I’m tired of swimming, and even you have become shy

I want to see you, but an invisible wave pushes us
And I wind up a bit further away from you again

Keep it going baby, don’t let it stop
If you don’t feel the same way, tell me
Even though you make a point of not overdoing things
It’s okay to do so sometimes

I wanna be with you now
Let’s shorten the distance together
We’ve still got time now
We can start over
We can’t become one
I wanna be with you now
Someday we’ll be able to
Embrace this distance
We can start sooner
I still wanna be with you

By hurting me this much with just one word
You’ve taught me what loneliness is

When you can’t keep your promise, keep on trying baby
It’s not quite what we promised, but just trust me
Even though I make a point of not overdoing things
It’s okay to do so with you

I wanna be with you now
Let’s stare at the distance together
We’ve still got time now
We can start over
I want to put this into words
I wanna be with you now
We’ll soon be able to
Embrace this distance
We should stay together
I still need to be with you
