Released: January 11, 2012

[Verse 1]
”なにかがたりないきょりをおきたい” と
あなたからきりだされた
わかれまでのかうんとだうんわはじまっている

[Verse 2]
つよきでいるけどじかんがたつほど
ちんもくにしはいされる
めにみえなくてもこころわつながっている
Mmm

[Chorus]
あいをてばなせないよあなたをてばなせない
I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore

[Verse 3]
かわいたつちにわふたりのねわどうも
はれないままいきてきた
たくましいきになるとずっとおもっていた

[Chorus]
I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, oh, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore

[Outro]
No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
