Mr. Children - Dakishimetai ( 抱きしめたい )Lyrics

English Translation:

Just like the day we met
a drizzling silent night
when I close my eyes, I see us there again just like that day.

that time, pushed by the crowds,
something in the store front window caught your eye,
and you got tripped up.
even now I feel the warmth in my hands from when I caught you.

I want to hold you before these feelings about to overflow escape from me.
in our hearts let’s go walking our own little dream,
keep the scars on your heart of a love gone by in me.

this shapeless feeling the two of us gently nurtured
as if lighting a candle, is even now burning strong.

I never forget that promise I hushed my voice to pinky-swear with you,
in the shivering night.
Don’t worry, I’m only looking at you.

if you’re hurt so much that you want to cry, when you’re hanging your head,
let’s go look for a smile more wonderful than anyone’s.

I want to take on everything always together

I want to hold you, I’m filled with these feelings for you about to overflow.
I’m sure we can walk together, and when you’re sad, I’ll always be there.
