English Translation
Why does the evening rain pattering on the window
remind me of you?
I can almost hear your warm, friendly voice
The letter I tried to write to you
Is still sleeping, unfinished, in my drawer
I want to write it properly since I'm doing well
I have a home to return to
People to welcome me
People that I call friends have supported me
Whenever I reminisce,
I think of you, my irreplaceable friend
I've probably changed since those times when I always relied on you
I'm glad I met you
I'm really glad I did
and I'm waiting for the day when we'll meet again
Just laughing about silly things
Or agreeing with me,
You saved me when I was feeling down.
Thank you
No matter how far apart we are
The bond we share can never be broken
Because we're living at the same time, under the same sky
Whenever I reminisce,
I think of you, my special friend
Don't worry about me, I'm not complaining.
Without losing
my uniqueness,
I keep walking forward, though tomorrow comes
Whenever I reminisce,
I think of you, my irreplaceable friend
I've probably changed since those times when I always relied on you
I'm glad I met you
I'm really glad I did
and I'm waiting for the day when we'll meet again
