Yanagida Kumiko - Sometimes a sunflower's throat hurts too.

I know it all too well.
That I have to laugh until the very end.
I can't let the brimming tears fall,
as if its nothing.

Like that, love must be so good.
Because you're so radiant I can't take my eyes off of you.
You whose fallen in love,
I, whose fallen in love, has to understand with all my heart.

If I had cried like I wanted,
Would it have been easier?
If I had told you that I loved you,
Would it have been easier to let you go?

Because you're far away, because I can't reach you,
must be why you are so beautiful to me.

As I watch you who has turned around
I'm still waiting.
Like I've always done, protecting the same spot.
Even if I try and try to forget,
I only learn that I can't forget, with all my heart.

If I had cried like I wanted,
Would it have been easier?
If I had told you that I loved you,
Would it have been easier to let you go?

Because you're far away, because I can't reach you,
must be why you are so beautiful to me.

Even if I'm always protecting you, it must be a fate that I have to avoid.
My heart is bruised, and these falling tears have come and found me again.

Don't let that person get away again.
He makes you laugh.
As much as I'm crying like this,
It looks good.

Nothing has changed.
Because I can watch you.
As much as I'm crying like this,
I'm so happy.

Because you're far away, because I can't reach you,
My love can be for forever.
