ZARD The Best

A tribute to the unforgettable voice of Izumi Sakai

Don't you see!

words by Sakai Izumi

友達ともだち手紙てがみとき みたいに
スラスラ言葉ことばてくれればいいのに
もう少しお互おたがいを知り合うしりあうには時間じかんがほしい
裏切うらぎらないのは家族かぞくだけなんて
さびしすぎるよ Love is asking to be loved
しんじることをめてしまえば
らくになるってわかってるけど

Don't you see!
ねがってもいのっても奇跡思い出きせきおもいで
すこしはにかけて
Don't you see!
ちょっとめたりをするくせ
きずつくのがこわいから

TAXIタクシー ってたとき沈黙ちんもく
たった五分ごふんなのにものすごくなが感じかんじ
無理むりをして疲れてつかれて青ざめたあおざめた恋は
引き止めひきとめできごと

Don't you see!
小さなちいさな喧嘩けんか
けず嫌いきらい二人ふたりだからほっとしたの

Don't you see!
いろんなひと見るみるより
ずっと同じおなじあなたをていたい

Send him my love, rose never fade
I don't wanna say “BYE”

Don't you see! I'll never worry, tonight
I'll lay me down tonight
You know, I do it for you

Don't you see!
まれたまち匂いにおい
れかかる街路樹がいろじゅ二人ふたりある けば
Don't you see!
世界中せかいじゅうだれもがどんなにいそいでも
わたしつかまえていて

Tomodachi ni tegami wo kaku toki mitai ni
Surasura kotoba ga dete kureba ii no ni
Mou sukoshi otagai wo shiriau niwa jikan ga hoshii
Uragiranai no wa kazoku dake nante
Sabishisugiru yo Love is asking to be loved
Shinjiru koto wo tomete shimaeba
Raku ni narutte wakatteru kedo

Don't you see!
Negatte mo inotte mo kiseki omoide
Sukoshi wa ki ni kakete
Don't you see!
Chotto sameta furi wo suru kuse wa
Kizutsuku no ga kowai kara

TAXI noriba de matteta toki no chimmoku wa
Tatta gofun na no ni mono sugoku nagaku kanjita
Muri wo shite tsukarete aozameta koi wa
Yokisenu dekigoto

Don't you see!
Chiisa na kenka de
Makezu kirai na futari dakara hotto shita no
Don't you see!
Ironna hito wo miru yori
Zutto onaji anata wo mite itai

Send him my love, rose never fade
I don't wanna say “BYE”

Don't you see! I'll never worry, tonight
I'll lay me down tonight.
You know, I do it for you

Don't you see!
Umareta machi no nioi
Kurekakaru gairoju wo futari arukeba
Don't you see!
Sekai juu no dare mo ga donna ni isoidemo
Watashi wo tsukamaete ite

I wish the words would come out fluently
Like when I write a letter to a friend
What I want is more time for us to get to know each other
It's so lonely when the only ones I won't betray
Are my family; Love is asking to be loved
Though I know that I'd be better off
If I stopped believing

Don't you see!
Even though I wish and pray for miracles and memories
I'm a bit worried
Don't you see!
If I act a little disillusioned
It's because I'm afraid of being hurt

The silence while we were waiting at the taxi stop
Was only five minutes, but felt so much longer
I never thought that our relationship
Would have grown this tired and faded

Don't you see!
I'm relieved because we're the type of couple
Who won't give up because of a small fight
Don't you see!
More than seeing various other people
I always want to see the same old you

Send him my love, rose never fade
I don't wanna say “BYE”

Don't you see! I'll never worry, tonight
I'll lay me down tonight.
You know, I do it for you

Don't you see!
The smell of your town
As we walk beneath the roadside trees at dusk
Don't you see!
No matter how much of a rush
The rest of the world is in, hold on to me
