Kanji

ありがとう、と君に言われると
なんだかせつない
さようならの後も解けぬ魔法
淡くほろ苦い
The flavor of life

友達でも恋人でもない中間地点で
収穫の日を夢見てる
青いフルーツ

あと一歩が踏み出せないせいで
じれったいのなんのってbaby

ありがとう、と君に言われると
なんだかせつない
さようならの後も解けぬ魔法
淡くほろ苦い
The flavor of life

甘いだけの誘い文句
味っけの無いトーク
そんなものには興味をそそられない

思い通りにいかない時だって
人生捨てたもんじゃないって

どうしたの?と急に聞かれると
ううん、なんでもない
さようならの後に消える笑顔
私らしくない

信じたいと願えば願うほど
なんだかせつない
「愛してるよ」よりも
「大好き」の方が
君らしいんじゃない?
The flavor of life

忘れかけていた人の香りを
突然思い出す頃
降りつもる雪の白さをもっと
素直に喜びたいよ

ダイアモンドよりもやわらかくて
あたたかな未来
手にしたいよ
限りある時間を
君と過ごしたい

ありがとう、と君に言われると
なんだかせつない
さようならの後も解けぬ魔法
淡くほろ苦い
The flavor of life

English

"Thank you", when you say that to me
It's somehow painful
"Good bye", even after that
The magic is not broken
It's faintly bittersweet
The flavor of life

At the meddle point between friends and couple
I'm a green fruit longing for the harvest day
Since I cannot take a step forward
Why impatient? Baby

"Thank you", when you say that to me
It's somehow painful
"Good bye", even after that
The magic is not broken
It's faintly bittersweet
The flavor of life

Sweet-only temptation, boring talk
I'm never attracted to such things

Even if things don't go as you like it
It's not as if you've thrown your life away

"What's wrong?" suddenly you ask me
So "I'm okay, nothing much"
"Good Bye", after that
My smile disappears
It's not the way I am

The more I wish to believe
The more painful it is
It's more like you to say
"I really like you" than "I love you"
The flavor of life

When I suddenly remember the flavor of people I've almost forgotten
Thinking of whiteness of snow, I want to become happy with it from my heart

I want to get the future softer and warmer than diamond
I want to spend the limited time only with you

"Thank you", when you say that to me
It's somehow painful
"Good bye", even after that
The magic is not broken
It's faintly bittersweet
The flavor of life
