Mattete Ai no Uta (Song of a Waiting Love) Aqours Composed by: Yamaguchi Akihiko Arranged by: Yamaguchi Akihiko Written by: Hata Aki
me o tojite kiiteita yo~ kurikaesu nami no oto o
You know, I heard it when I closed my eyes; the recurring sound of the waves
kyou wa~ shizuka ni nagareteku~
They flow by quietly today
(kyou wa~)
surechigau hito mo nakute~ hitorikiri aruku michi de
Without anyone passing me by, I walk on this path, alone
La la la... kuchizusamu ai no uta~
La la la... Humming the song of love
(La la la...)
sonna tsuyoi omoi nante~
I still don't understand such strong emotions
mada wakaranai kedo itsuka wa
But, someday
kokoro kara no kimochi komete~ utattemitai kara~
I'd like to sing about it from the bottom of my heart
(sore wa itsu kana)
(I wonder when that'll be?)
mattete kureru kai? motto suteki ni naritai yo
Will you wait for me? I want to become an even better person
koi wa madamada nazo ni michita tooku no passhon
Love is still a far-off passion full of mystery
mattete kureru kai? motto suteki ni naritai yo
Will you wait for me? I want to become an even better person
dakara madamada shiritai na~
That's why I want to know more
(ironna koto shiritai)
(There's so many things I'd like to learn)
akogare o~
I'll chase after
(mitsumete~)
(And look for)
oikakeyou~
The one I look up to
(aa aa a~)
sunadokei tsukureru kana~ umibe nite omou koto wa
I wonder if I could make an hourglass? My thoughts always ramble on
itsumo~ toritome no nai koto~
Whenever I'm by the sea
(itsumo~)
sukoshi dake setsunai kibun hitorikiri tachidomareba
If I pause for a little while, alone, sadness creeps up within me
La la la... nakete kuru ai no uta~
La la la... The song of love brings me to tears
(La la la...)
dare ni kiitemitara wakaru~?
Would I understand if I tried asking someone?
kiite wakaru mono janai yo ne
It's not something you can understand by asking someone else, isn't it?
mune o kogasu koi no chikara~ omoikkiri~ utattemitai kedo~
I want to try singing with all my might, with the power of love that scorches my heart
(saki no koto da ne)
(But now's not the time yet, right?)
shinjite kureru kai? kitto itsuka wa utaerutte
Will you believe in me? I'll definitely be able to sing it someday
koi no arekore souzou dake de mirai no misshon
The ins and outs of love, even imagining it is a mission for the future
shinjite kureru kai? kitto itsuka wa utaerutte
Will you believe in me? I'll definitely be able to sing it someday
dakara are kore kangaezu ni~
That's why, I won't overthink it
(nariyuki makase kana~)
(Can I just go with the flow?)
sono uchi ni~
Will I...
(deai ga~)
(Eventually)
aru no kana~
Encounter it?
ai no uta no hibiki wa
The echoes of the love song
yasashiku kanashiinda ne
Are both kind and sad at the same time, aren't they?
nazeka wa shirazu ni
For some reason, without me realizing it
nee mune ga itai yo
Hey, my chest hurts
ai no uta no kaori wa
The scent of the love song
shiokaze yori aokute
Is even bluer than the sea breeze
motto tashikametai kaori sa~
It's a scent I'd like to make sure of
(aoku setsunai kaori sa~)
(It's a blue and sad scent)
