Yanagida Kumiko

The name of seperation

Yanagida Kumiko


When you threw me away and left, I couldn't say anything 
because I already knew that you were no longer mine. 

Even if I cry, I can't hold onto you. 
So that you can be happy, I have to give you up. 

For a long time, until the silhouette of your back faded away, 
I watched, like a fool. 

Thinking that by chance you might come back, 
I wiped away my tears. 

I see that I've really broken up now. 
Seeing myself cry, I know that its true. 

Telling you to be happy would be of no use now, 
Because you've probably already erased me. 

I miss you. To say those words, 
they've already been buzzing in my ear for a long time. 

It feels like my heart has stopped. 
Even though I call out your name one more time. 

I see that I've really broken up now. 
Seeing myself cry, I know that its true. 

Telling you to be happy would be of no use now, 
Because you've probably already erased me. 

Even if telling you to be happy is of no use, 
I'll treasure this love inside my heart. 

Even though you've left me, I don't hate you. 
Because you've already erased me... 

I'm sorry, I can't protect you...
