Nostalgia Lyrics English Translation by SAIKO
It’s the nostalgia that makes me sad when I think of you
If I remember the good times, the day I met you
When I find photos where I wrote the date on the back
I realize too much time has passed
My therapist says I should let you go to be happy
But I don’t know how to live without the will to live
I talk to myself, imagining your reply if you were here
Punishing me with your memory in my mind, way too cruel
It’s like going back to my room in my parents’ house
Like someone passing by reminds me of your scent
Like everything was a thousand times better back then
Nostalgia hurts, but I’m starting to like it
How do I forget someone who was my whole world?
The silence I hear feels like the house caving in
If I could hear your voice again for just a few seconds
You’ll always be my love, even if we’re not together
I go out to eat alone, but I can’t get used to it
I watch sunsets and see other beings
Living the life you and I used to have
I don’t like living my days in resignation
I’ll never rebuild my life, the bar’s set too high
And the knots in my chest—who’s gonna come untie them?
The past is beautiful, the future’s uncertain
I spend my days distracted so I don’t have to think about it
No one will ever match you, I always wonder where you’ll be
What we could’ve been got left halfway
You taught me to love, now I’ve got no one to practice with
I was so happy without even realizing
It’s like going back to my room in my parents’ house
Like someone passing by reminds me of your scent
Like everything was a thousand times better back then
Nostalgia hurts, but I’m starting to like it
How do I forget someone who was my whole world?
The silence I hear feels like the house caving in
If I could hear your voice again for just a few seconds
You’ll always be my love, even if we’re not together
Ay!
Remember, you’ll miss this moment
The photos I take today will turn into memories
And this time into nostalgia
Thanks to you who listens, and remember
Even if the past is beautiful, we’ve still got so many memories left to make
