About Time Lyrics English Translation by D.O.
To me, who was clumsy,
You reached out your hand first,
Affectionately,
Matching our gazes, reading me,
That warm memory.
Sometimes, for any reason,
You comforted me without asking,
By my side, guarding me,
Back then, I didn’t fully understand,
The act of giving myself entirely,
For someone else.
Why is it always after losing
Precious things that I realize?
In the end, it’s after letting go
Of the hand I held, that I recognize you.
Yesterday’s you, today’s me,
Return us,
To the time we can no longer face,
You and I together.
Generously,
Expressing love,
Embracing warmly,
On those weary days,
It wasn’t taken for granted.
Always using busyness as an excuse,
I made you lonely,
Forgive me for those days.
If only I had held you longer,
Never delaying,
And said “I love you” more often.
Why is it always after losing
Precious things that I realize?
In the end, it’s after letting go
Of the hand I held, that I recognize you.
Yesterday’s you, today’s me,
Return us,
To the time we can no longer face,
You and I together.
If I could turn back time,
To reach yesterday’s you,
I’d hold your hand,
And just tightly embrace you without a word.
Thank you,
For all the time you walked beside me,
Side by side.
Yesterday’s you, today’s me,
Return us,
To the time we can no longer face,
Our time together.
