大好きな人が自分のことを好きなとき
なんでこんなに心おどるの
大好きな人がほかの誰かを好きなとき
なんでこんなにも苦しいの
どこか遠くに楽しいことが
ある気がしてわき道にわかれ道
なんでこんなに遠回りして
君にたどり着くのかな
だけど
人はそんなふうにできている
愛した人に愛されることを
何より幸せに感じるように
人の命には終わりがあるから
人は愛を永遠にできる
そういうふうにできている
仕送りの荷物やお弁当箱の隅に
ずっと絶え間なくそそがれてた
いろんな気持ちに気づかなかったあの頃
愛を語るには早すぎた
今日という日がくるまで
選んで来たたくさんの分かれ道
でもきっとね どの道を通っても
君にたどりついていたよ
だって
人はそんなふうにできている
愛した人に愛されることを
何より幸せに感じるように
人の命には終わりがあるから
人は愛を永遠にできる
そういうふうにできている
きっとそんなふうに決まっている
愛した人に愛されることを
何よりしあわせに感じてるよ
僕の命には終わりがあるけど
僕は愛を永遠に誓う
そういうことなんだよ
そういうことなんだよ
--------English Translation--------
(I think Japanese language is very "unspecific" , we skip subject a lot. Usually we don't know if the song is 1st person narrative or 2nd or 3rd, or if it's about something in general...because there's no "I" or "You" or "We", it depends on how you take it. but... I had to put "I"s and "you"s for translation.)
"That's how it goes"
When the person I'm in love also loves me
Why does my heart dances so happily?
When the person I'm in love with loves somebody else
Why does my heart aches and squeezed like this?
Sometimes, people think that there is something more fun somewhere else
and we choose to take a detour, get lost in life
Why did I take such a long journey
Just to come to you who were so close? But...
That's how it goes, how we are(I'm) made
To feel happy more than anything else
When you are loved by someone you love
Our life has an end, but that's why
We can make "love" an eternal thing
That's how we are meant to be, that's how it goes.
In the packages from home
In the everyday lunch bag
The feeling and message that was always put inside
When I didn't realize that love
It was too early and immature for me to talk about love
Until this day has come
Those turning point and crossroad in my life,
I know that whichever way I chose, I've come to you eventually, Because
That's how it goes, how we are(I'm) made
To feel happy more than anything else
When you are loved by someone you love
Our life has an end, but that's why
We can make "love" an eternal thing
That's how we are meant to be, that's how it goes.
I think that's how it goes, how we are(I'm) made
I feel happy more than anything else
Because I am loved by the person I love
My life has an end but
I can make "love" an eternal thing
That's how I'm meant to be, that's how it goes.
