"I want you to love me, but I don't think you will."

Sen no Yoru wo Koete
Aqua Timez
Bleach: Memories of Nobody (2006)

Do you love me or not?
I don't care what the answer is, I just need to know!
No matter how badly I desire to be with you?
There are many unchangeable things in this world,
and my love for you can't be stopped by anyone.

As 1000 nights pass, I long to tell you...
I have to let you know.
"I want you to love me, but I don't think you will."
I wander around as I repeat this to myself.
It's the only answer I have, even if I'm scared of getting hurt.
I'll say "I love you" to the one I love.
Putting these feelings into words is so scary, but
I'll say "I love you" to the one I love.

The happiness we chance upon in our lives can't be expressed in words
That's we can only smile.
Why we sing "Do Re Mi" among the vivid autumn colors
With winter at our backs, and the spring sunbeans peeking through the leaves.

As to protect someone who's just been reborn.
As I looked at the road I'd traveled and the path ahead,
My eyes were filled with cowardice.
I wanted to look into your eyes, but was afraid I wouldn't be honest.
I didn't want to know that you don't love me
And live the rest of my days all alone.
That day, I kept on loving you without getting hurt.

As 1000 nights pass, I long to tell you...
I have to let you know.
"I want you to love me, but I don't think you will."
I wander around as I repeat this to myself.
It's the only answer I have, even if I'm scared of getting hurt.
I'll say "I love you" to the one I love.


Even if my feelings aren't returned,
I can say "I love you" to the one I love...
And that's the most beautiful thing in the world.
