Sakurazaka no Uta (Lyrics & Translation)

当たり前だと思ってた普通の日々が
当たり前なんかじゃなかったなんて・・・
君と会えなかった今日まで
心にぽっかりと穴が空いてた

本当の寂しさって　誰もいないことじゃなく
大切な人と会えなくなること
何があったかなんて分からないけど
君ならきっと　乗り越えられるよ

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

満開の桜の木を　一度だって忘れたことはない
春が過ぎて花が散っても　夢は繰り返しここに咲くはず
ふと思い出すように　僕らはこの坂に集まって
君のこと語り合えば　また会える気がしてくるよ

誰にも言えない悲しいことだってあっただろう
遠くから見てて心配した
僕らにできることは何もなくて
君自身が立ち上がるのを待ってた

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

満開の桜の木は　夏秋冬の風に吹かれ
野ざらしのその枝に何を待ち続けてたのか？
通り過ぎる人たちがあの日の花を忘れても
次の春の景色を　僕らはずっと思い浮かべてた

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

なぜ人は桜をこんなに愛するのか
胸が震える　懐かしさに
一つ一つの花びらが肩を組むように
桜は満開になるのさ

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

満開の桜の木を　一度だって忘れたことはない
春が過ぎて花が散っても　夢は繰り返しここに咲くはず
ふと思い出すように　僕らはこの坂に集まって
君のこと語り合えば　また会える気がしてくるよ

The ordinary days we took for granted
were not a given at all…
When we couldn’t meet you before today,
there was a gaping hole in our hearts

True loneliness isn’t about not having anyone by your side
But about not being able to meet the people you hold dear
We don’t know what happened
But if it’s you, we know you’ll be able to overcome it for sure

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

We have never once forgotten
the sakura trees in full bloom
Even after spring has passed and the flowers have scattered,
our dreams are sure to bloom here over and over again
As if suddenly remembering,
we gathered on this slope
And if we talk about you,
it feels like we’ll see you again

There must have been sadness that you couldn’t share with anyone
We felt worried, watching from afar
There was nothing that we could do
We’ve been waiting for you to stand up on your own

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

The fully bloomed sakura trees
are blown by the winds of summer, autumn, and winter
What has that weather-beaten branch
continued to wait for?
Even if the people passing by
have forgotten about the flowers from that day
The scenery next spring
always came to our minds

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

Why do people love sakura this much?
With nostalgia that makes our hearts tremble
Like each petal being shoulder to shoulder
The sakura will be in full bloom

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh

We have never once forgotten
the sakura trees in full bloom
Even after spring has passed and the flowers have scattered,
our dreams are sure to bloom here over and over again
As if suddenly remembering,
we gathered on this slope
And if we talk about you,
it feels like we’ll see you again

Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
Wow Oh Wow Oh Oh Oh
