Kanji Lyrics
失恋 ありがとう 思い出がいっぱい(ラララ…)
涙を拭いたら サヨナラ悲しみよ(ラララ…)
この世界の恋のほとんどは
上手くはいかないものなんだ
好きになるのは簡単だけど
両想いになるのは難しい
これが運命と思い込んで
死ぬの生きるのって騒いでた
自分が勝手に夢を見て
勝手に夢から覚めただけ
息をするのも苦しいくらい
眠れぬ夜を乗り越えられた
失恋 ありがとう でも会えてよかった(ラララ…)
笑顔をもう一度 今日から強くなれる(ラララ…)
親友に相談したって
どうにかなるようなことじゃない
いつしか悩んでる自分に
酔っていたのかもしれない
また新しい恋をすればいい
未来の長さだけ出会いは待ってる
失恋 ありがとう 強がって言わせて(ラララ…)
さあ前を向いたら ゆっくり忘れよう(ラララ…)
ラララ…
ラララ…
失恋 ありがとう 思い出がいっぱい(ラララ…)
涙を拭いたら サヨナラ悲しみよ(ラララ…)
失恋 バカヤロー 忘れられるわけない(ラララ…)
ホントは ホントは 今でも大好きだ(ラララ…)
Romaji Lyrics
Shitsuren arigatou omoide ga ippai (rarara…)
Namida o fuitara sayonara kanashimi yo (rarara…)
Kono sekai no koi no hotondo wa
Umaku wa ikanai mono nanda
Suki ni naru no wa kantan dakedo
Ryouomoi ni naru no wa muzukashii
Kore ga unmei to omoikonde
Shinu no ikiru no tte sawaideta
Jibun ga katte ni yume o mite
Katte ni yume kara sameta dake
Iki o suru no mo kurushii kurai
Nemurenu yoru o norikoerareta
Shitsuren arigatou demo aete yokatta (rarara…)
Egao o mou ichido kyou kara tsuyoku nareru (rarara…)
Shinyuu ni soudan shita tte
Dou ni ka naru you na koto ja nai
Itsushika nayanderu jibun ni
Yotte ita no kamo shirenai
Mata atarashii koi o sureba ii
Mirai no nagasa dake deai wa matteru
Shitsuren arigatou tsuyogatte iwasete (rarara…)
Saa mae o muitara yukkuri wasureyou (rarara…)
Rarara…
Rarara…
Shitsuren arigatou omoide ga ippai (rarara…)
Namida o fuitara sayonara kanashimi yo (rarara…)
Shitsuren baka yarou wasurerareru wake nai (rarara…)
Honto wa honto wa ima demo daisuki da (rarara…)
English Translation
Thank you for the heartbreak, full of memories (la la la…)
After wiping my tears, goodbye to sadness (la la la…)
Most loves in this world
Don't turn out well anyway
It's easy to fall in love
But mutual feelings are hard
I convinced myself this was fate
Making a fuss about life and death
I dreamed on my own
And woke up from the dream on my own
Even breathing felt painful
But I overcame those sleepless nights
Thank you for the heartbreak, but I'm glad we met (la la la…)
One more smile—from today, I can become stronger (la la la…)
Even talking to my best friend
Won't fix something like this
Maybe I was just drunk
On my own worries all along
Just fall in love again
Encounters are waiting as long as the future is long
Thank you for the heartbreak, forcing me to act tough (la la la…)
Come on, face forward—let's slowly forget (la la la…)
La la la…
La la la…
Thank you for the heartbreak, full of memories (la la la…)
After wiping my tears, goodbye to sadness (la la la…)
Heartbreak, you idiot—I can't possibly forget (la la la…)
Actually, actually, I still love you so much (la la la…)
Indonesian Translation
Patah hati, terima kasih, penuh kenangan (la la la…)
Setelah mengusap air mata, selamat tinggal kesedihan (la la la…)
Hampir semua cinta di dunia ini
Tak berjalan mulus
Jatuh cinta itu mudah
Tapi saling mencinta itu sulit
Kupikir ini takdir
Ribut soal hidup mati
Aku bermimpi sendiri
Dan bangun dari mimpi sendiri
Napas pun terasa sesak
Tapi aku berhasil melewati malam tanpa tidur itu
Patah hati, terima kasih, tapi senang pernah bertemu (la la la…)
Senyum sekali lagi—mulai hari ini aku bisa lebih kuat (la la la…)
Bahkan curhat ke sahabat
Tak akan menyelesaikan masalah ini
Mungkin aku tadinya mabuk
Dengan kekhawatiran diriku sendiri
Cukup jatuh cinta lagi saja
Pertemuan menanti sepanjang masa depan yang panjang
Patah hati, terima kasih, memaksaku berpura-pura kuat (la la la…)
Ayo hadap ke depan—mari perlahan lupakan (la la la…)
La la la…
La la la…
Patah hati, terima kasih, penuh kenangan (la la la…)
Setelah mengusap air mata, selamat tinggal kesedihan (la la la…)
Patah hati, dasar bodoh—mana bisa kulupakan (la la la…)
Sebenarnya, sebenarnya, aku masih sangat mencintaimu (la la la…)
