地に付かない 	chi ni tsukanai 	it felt as though my feet weren’t touching the ground
 	 	
ドアが閉まって　君が消えると 	doa ga shimatte kimi ga kieru to 	When the door closes and you vanish,

無駄なものなど何もないのに 	muda na mono nado nanimonai noni 	even though nothing is truly useless,

揺れる窓際　眺める景色 	yureru madogiwa nagameru keshiki 	The scenery I looked down on from the swaying window

何か少し　変わるだろうか 	nanika sukoshi kawaru darou ka 	I feel like something would change, just a bit,
延いては世界が 	hiite wa sekai ga 	or maybe even the world would change…?
 	 	
寝惚けたように指を伸ばすと 	neboketa you ni yubi o nobasu to 	When I extended a finger as if still half-asleep,
何故だか既にベルは押されていて 	nazedaka sude ni beru wa osareteite 	for some reason, the button had already been pressed
同じように指を伸ばした君と 	onaji you ni yubi o nobashita kimi to 	Then I met eyes with you,
目が合ってしまった 	me ga atteshimatta 	who had your finger extended just the same as mine,
名も知らぬ街は雨上がりの匂いがした 	na mo shiranu machi wa ameagari no nioi ga shita 	and the town with a name I didn’t know smelled of earth after the rain
