English Lyrics

Ann Lewis "Yakusoku shita keredo" [I Promised, but]

Lyrics: Kazuya Senke 

Composition: Sugiyama Kouichi

Back then, I was the apple of his eye

Happiness traversed over my tears

The station we traveled to was a bit cold 

And waterweeds sprouted on the sides of the railway 

With just the touch of our fingers

The love that I had found disappeared 

Now, I can’t keep my promise not to cry 

Because I’ve lost to the leftover sadness 

Back then, he said that he would write me letters

He continued to cast out promising words

After we said goodbye things became even more painful

People passing by on the road looked back at me in confusion 

With just the wavering of our shadows

The love I found disappeared 

Now, I can’t keep my promise to wait for you

The sadness I was able to forget was too deep 

The sadness I was able to forget was too deep

Romaji

Lyrics: Kazuya Senke 

Composition: Sugiyama Kouichi

Sono toki ano hito no hitomi ni koi wo shita

Namida no naka wo shiawase ga yokogitta

Tabidatsu sono eki wa chiisaku samukatta

Senro no soba ni mizukusa ga saiteita

    Yubi to yubi wo fureta dake de

    Watshi no mitsuketa koi wa kieta

Nakanai yakusoku mo ima de wa mamorenai

Torinokosareta kanashimi ni maketa kara

Sono toki ano hito wa tegami wo kaku to itta

Akarui kotoba kurikaeshi nagekaketa

Sayonara shita ato wa naosara tsurakatta

Michiyuku hito ga fushigige ni furimuita

    Kage to kage yeretadakede

    Watashi no mitsuketa koi wa kieta

Matteru yakusoku mo ima de wa mamorenai

Wasuresareta kanashimi ga fukasugite

Wasuresareta kanashimi ga fukasugite

歌詞

アンルイス「約束したけれど」

作詞：千家和也

作曲：すぎやまこういち

その時あの人の瞳に恋をした

泪の中を幸せが横切った

旅立つその駅は小さく寒かった

線路のそばに水草が咲いていた

指と指を触れただけで

私のみつけた恋は消えた

泣かない約束も今では守れない

取り残された悲しみに負けたから

その時あの人は手紙を書くと言った

明るい言葉繰り返し投げかけた

さよならした後はなおさら辛かった

道行く人が不思議げに降り向いた

影と影が揺れただけで

私のみつけた恋は消えた

待ってる約束も今では守れない

忘れ去れた悲しみが深すぎて

忘れ去れた悲しみが深すぎて
