detewaikenaitowa kattetanoni
出てはいけないと分かってたのに
I knew I shouldn’t have answered the call

『やぁ久しぶりだね』
Long time no see

denwa no koe ga furue te sugu ni
電話の声が震えてすぐに
Your voice is trembling

kokai ga tameiki e to kawatte ku 
後悔がため息へと変わってく 
My regret is turning into sigh


de te kureru wake nai to omotte ta kara
出てくれる訳ないと思ってたから
I thought that you wouldn’t answer my call

gomen koe ni nara nai no
ごめん 声にならないの
I’m sorry, I can’t speak

ima doko de nani shiteru kamo
今どこで何してるかも
I can’t ask you where you are and how have you been

kike naku te namida ga deru
聞けなくて涙が出る
Instead, I started to cry

omoi ga kotoba ni nara nai
想いが言葉にならない
We can’t express how we feel


mimi ni hibiku iki no oto
耳に響く息の音
Breath echoes in our ears

genki da yo to uso o tsuku no mo
元気だよと嘘をつくのも
I could have lied that I am doing okay

優しさだと分かってるけど
I knew it’s because you are kind hearted

吐息だけでもいいから
Just let me listen to your breath

Even only just for tonight

Just let me listen to your breath

ねぇ君は新しい恋を
My dear, you’ve already

もう始めたんだね
found a new love

貴方より素敵な人なんていないのに
There is no one like you

kokoro o damashi te
心を騙して
I am cheating my heart

虚しい恋してるよ
I’m in love, in fruitless love


mimi ni hibiku iki no oto
耳に響く息の音
Breath echoes in our ears

genki de ne to uso o tsuku no mo
元気でねと 嘘をつくのも優しさだと
Please take care of yourself

吐息だけでもいいから
Just your breath

辛い夜は聴かせてとただ願うよ
I just wish I could listen to your breath at miserable nights

I now understand what happiness means

何気ない話がもっと
After we are separated

But sometimes,

辛い夜は電話かけてもいいかな
Can I call you when I am feeling miserable
