Morning Musume

Translation by Julie Rose

As I expected, the nights are still chilly
Maybe it's because I'm alone on the beach
I wonder where he is
And what girl he's listening to the waves with

I felt jealous
Of the way he's so nice to everyone
To be honest, I wonder if we'd still be together
If I'd sulked a bit

Ah, the memories
Are still quietly lapping
Like the waves
Ah, when I come to this beach
The memories are so strong
That my eyes fill with tears

As I expected, I still love him a little
Maybe it's because I just heard our song
I wonder if he thinks of me
When he hears that song

When he revealed his feelings
I replied straight away
To be honest, I wonder what he would have said
If I'd cried a little or something

Ah, I'd decided in my heart
To send these memories
Out to sea today, but
Ah, I want to keep
This memory in my heart
Because it's so beautiful

Ah, the memories
Are still quietly lapping
Like the waves
Ah, when I come to this beach
The memories are so strong
That my eyes fill with tears
