- Title: 
Chasing you with candy in hand (キャンディを手に追いかけて)

- Introduction: 
This time I wrote a song about my ex-girlfriend suddenly coming to visit me. She came to see me for the last time before she moved away and left me with a mysterious comment...
今回は急に元カノが訪ねてきた曲を作りました。引っ越し前に最後に会いに来たという彼女は不思議な一言を残して...

- Lyrics: (Japanese. English is next below) 
[Verse]
明るいドアのチャイムの音
眩しい陽射し　重い空気
徹夜明けの重い頭
そこに佇む　懐かしい顔

[Verse]
1年ぶりだね元気かい
うん、今度ね引っ越しするの
最後にもう一度会いたくて
今日は顔見に来ちゃったよ

[Pre-chorus]
ありがとうね　来てくれて
わざわざ会いに　来てくれて
閉めるドア　後ろ手に回して
遮る会話　首に手を回して

[Chorus]
そっか、あなたってこんな
感じの人だったのね
そばにいるとき夢中すぎて
ちっとも気がつかなかったよ

[Post-chorus]
それってどういう意味なの？
聞けずに髪を指ですいて

[Verse]
ねえ憶えてる？キャンディの話
二人が好きな　キャンディの話
その後、駅まで来てくれたよね
帰り電車でこれ食べなよって

[Verse]
ねえ憶えてる？その翌日の話
想いを告げた翌朝の話
キミは言ったよね　残念って
もう少し片思いしたかったって

[Pre-chorus]
ちっともそのクセ変わらないね
左に感じる懐かしい重み
そうしてあごを肩に乗せたまま
しゃべると肩が痛いんだよね

[Chorus]
そっか、あなたってこんな
感じの人だったのね
そばにいるとき夢中すぎて
ちっとも気がつかなかったよ

[Post-chorus]
それってどういう意味なの？
聞けずに髪を指ですいて

[Outro]
ずっとあなたに夢中すぎて
ちっとも気がつかなかったよ

- Lyrics: (English)
[Verse]
The doorbell rings in the bright afternoon
Sunlight's blinding, the air feels heavy
My head's still foggy from pulling an all-nighter
And there you are—someone I used to know

[Verse]
"It's been a year, how have you been?"
"Yeah… I'm moving soon, actually"
"I just… wanted to see you one last time"
"So I came by—just to see your face"

[Pre-chorus]
Thanks... for coming all this way
For choosing to see me today
You reach behind to close the door
And gently wrap your arms around my neck

[Chorus]
"So this is who you really are," you said
"I never noticed before"
"Back when we were together
I guess I was too caught up in everything"

[Post-chorus]
What did you mean by that?
I couldn't ask—just brushed your hair aside with my fingers

[Verse]
Hey, do you remember? The story about the candy.
The candy we both liked, remember?
After that, you came to the station, didn't you?
And said, "Eat this on the train ride home."

[Verse]
And the next morning… remember that?
After I told you how I felt
You said, "Too bad, really…
I kinda wanted to keep liking you from afar a little longer"

[Pre-chorus]
There's something about you that never changes
I always felt a little heavy, that silly weight
And when you put your chin on my shoulder
When you talk like that, my shoulders and heart always hurt

[Chorus]
"So this is who you really are," you said
"I never noticed before"
"Back when we were together
I guess I was too caught up in everything"

[Post-chorus]
What did you mean by that?
I couldn't ask—just brushed your hair aside with my fingers

[Outro]
"I was always too caught up in you," you said
To notice anything at all
