This song was also given a professional English translation by the team of THE FIRST TAKE.
The translation is as follows:
Close enough for our fingertips to touch
That's how close I thought we were...
We wanted different things
What I took for endearment was a momentary illusion
If it's just out of kindness, don't try to be considerate
Just let me be
After so long, you say you'll escort me home
But eventually I'll be on my own tonight
It wasn't love
Street lights flicker because
There's no stopping my overflowing loneliness
I misunderstood the meaning behind your smiles
Happiness is just an endless desire
Your kindness naturally sent me dreaming
A shooting star shooting across my heart
But I'm still thankful I met you
I had a lovely time with you until today
Precious time
If it's just out of kindness, don't try to be considerate
Just let me be
After so long, you say you'll escort me home
But eventually I'll be on my own tonight
It wasn't love
