Stepmother

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
初めましての挨拶は 	hajimemashite no aisatsu wa 	Our greetings of "nice to meet you"
こそばゆそうにかわされた 	kosobayusou ni kawasareta 	Were exchanged awkwardly.
甘えたい盛りのあなたは 	amaetai mori no anata wa 	You, at your most eager to depend on me,
お姉さんと私を呼んだ 	oneesan to watashi o yonda 	Called me your "big sister."
 	 	
手を繋がないのは 	te o tsunaganai no wa 	It wasn't your shyness
あなたの恥じらいじゃなく 	anata no hajirai ja naku 	That stopped us from holding hands
私に勇気が足りなかったから 	watashi ni yuuki ga tarinakatta kara 	But the fact that I was lacking in courage.
 	 	
ごめんね　幼い瞳を染める 	gomen ne osanai hitomi o someru 	Sorry. I've stained your young eyes.
落陽よ　私に代わって抱いて 	rakuyou yo watashi ni kawatte daite 	Setting sun, replace me, embrace me.
寂しそうに　声を殺して泣かないで 	sabishisou ni koe o koroshite nakanaide 	Lower your voice in a lonely way and don't cry.
小さな　影法師　連れて 	chiisana kageboushi tsurete 	Bring your little silhouette along.
 	 	
曇りのない笑顔見せて 	kumori no nai egao misete 	How many days have passed
あなたが発って幾日か 	anata ga tatte ikunichi ka 	Since you showed me an unclouded smile and departed?
届いた手紙に記された 	todoita tegami ni shirusareta 	You wrote words of farewell and salvation
お別れと救いの言葉 	owakare to sukui no kotoba 	In this letter that reached me.
 	 	
寂しくなかったのは 	sabishikunakatta no wa 	The reason I wasn't lonely
ずっとわかっていたから 	zutto wakatte ita kara 	Is because I'd always known
あなたがあなたでいてくれたのだから 	anata ga anata de ite kureta no dakara 	That you would stay yourself for me.
 	 	
寂しいのは　これからの長い時間 	sabishii no wa kore kara no nagai jikan 	The long time from now on will be lonely,
重なる季節に彷徨って 	kasanaru kisetsu ni samayotte 	Drifting through the piling-on seasons,
全て済んだら　帰っておいでここが 	subete sundara kaette oide koko ga 	But when everything's over, come home. This is
あなたと私の帰る場所 	anata to watashi no kaeru basho 	The place we return to.
 	 	
覚えていますか　私が「若過ぎる」と 	oboete imasu ka watashi ga "wakasugiru" to 	Do you remember that time I was told I was
言われたあの頃　今はもう遥か遠くなって 	iwareta ano koro ima wa mou haruka tooku natte	"Too young"? It's grown so foggy in my memory,
今度は「老け過ぎた母親」だなんて 	kondo wa "fukesugita hahaoya" da nante 	And I wonder if, this time, I'd be told
言われるかしら 	iwareru kashira 	That I'm someone's "old lady."
 	 	
普通の親子でありたいと望んだ 	futsuu no oyako de aritai to nozonda 	I wished for us to be a normal parent and child.
こんなにも残酷なことか 	konna ni mo zankoku na koto ka 	Is that so very cruel of me?
私とあなたの時間の壁が 	watashi to anata no jikan no kabe ga 	The wall of time between us can make
泣きごとを言ってもいいかしら 	nakigoto o itte mo ii kashira 	All the complaints it wants, but it's fine.
 	 	
ごめんね　頼りなき愛を許す 	gomen ne tayorinaki ai o yurusu 	Sorry. I forgive you for your unreliable love.
有明よ　私に代わって迎えて 	ariake yo watashi ni kawatte mukaete 	Dawn, replace me, greet me.
叶うなら　もう一度会いたい 	kanau nara mou ichido aitai 	If it were possible, I'd like to see you one more time.
私は今日もあなたを待つ 	watashi wa kyou mo anata o matsu 	I'm waiting for you today too.
 	 	
Always being your mother
