初めてよね？ こんな風に 手を繋いであなたと歩くの
秋風に 吹かれながら 伝えたいことがあるのよ

今日まで私 言えなかったの
好きになるのが ちょっとだけ怖かったの
ホントはね あなたのことを誰よりも 愛してます…

抱きしめて
いつだってあなたの背中ばかり見てた ねえ 泣きたかった
青空を 燃やすように 赤く広がった夕焼けが そう 私の恋です
溢れそうな想いを ずっと隠していたの
困らせてばかりいたけど ごめんね 好きなの

私より あなたの方が 大人だってわかっているから
不安なのよ だからお願い この手を離しちゃだめなの

あなたに会うと その優しさが
私の全て 包みこんでしまうのよ
今までは 知らなかったのこんなにも せつなすぎる…

愛しさを
少しずつほんの少しずつでいいから ねえ 約束して
眠れない 長い夜 私が眠るまであなたは そう そばにいてください
あきれたりしないでね わがままを許してね
だってあなただけが私 好きなの

秋の風はとても不思議ね 素直にさせてくれる
帰れないのよ あなた知らなかった頃にもう

抱きしめて
いつだってあなたの背中ばかり見てた ねえ 泣きたかった
青空を 燃やすように 赤く広がった夕焼けが そう 私の恋です

少しずつほんの少しずつでいいから ねえ 約束して
眠れない 長い夜 私が眠るまであなたは そう そばにいてください
あきれたりしないでね わがままを許してね
だってあなただけが私 ごめんね 好きなの

Answer to you

Translation
This is the first time, isn't it? Holding hands and walking with you like this
As the autumn wind blows on me, there's something I want to tell you

Until today I couldn't say it
I was just a little scared of falling in love
The truth is I love you more than anyone else

Embrace me
I was always watching just your back, I wanted to cry
The red spreading sunset that seems to burn the blue sky, yes that is my love
I kept hiding my feelings that are about to spill out
I only made you worried, but I'm sorry, I love you

I know you are more of an adult than I am
That's why am I uneasy, so please don't let go of this hand

That kindness when I met you
Has surrounded all of me
I didn't know it was this painful until now

To love
Little by little, even just a little is fine, so hey, promise me
In this long sleepless night, please stay by my side until I fall asleep
Don't be shocked, forgive my selfishness
Because you are the only one I love

The autumn wind is very mysterious, isn't it? It lets me be honest
I can't go back to the time when I didn't know you anymore

Embrace me
I was always watching just your back, I wanted to cry
The red spreading sunset that seems to burn the blue sky, yes that is my love

Little by little, even just a little is fine, so hey, promise me
In this long sleepless night, please stay by my side until I fall asleep
Don't be shocked, forgive my selfishness
Because you are the only one, I'm sorry, I love you

First of all, OMG HOW PRETTY IS THAT PV!? I love the scenes where they are dancing in blue dresses and the autumn leaves are scattered on the floor. I like Nettaigyo’s choreo a lot more, but their dancing is still beautiful to look at in this PV. I’m bummed about Chiharu leaving after the single got released, because I was starting to really like her, but I respect her decision and wish her all the best in her studies.

I’ve been watching/listening to this a lot recently, because it was early autumn in Japan when we went there, and this PV and song just screams of autumn. Eventually, the song got stuck in my head and I ended up wanting to translate it. The lyrics are pretty simple, and feel of it kind of resembles Hatsukoi. Hopefully I managed to give the song justice with this translation.
