[Intro] もう 終わったことだから I say it while the coffee drips There’s a meeting in an hour and a train I mustn’t miss [Verse 1] I’ve learned to give the shorter answer when somebody asks about you “I haven’t heard. It’s been a while.” Then I ask them something new I take the longer way back home so I don’t pass our old café A little walking does me good At least, that’s what I say [Pre-Chorus] Then I catch myself beginning a sentence meant for you Just some little thing that happened ……けど、貴方は もう [Chorus] I’m doing fine, I’m doing fine そんなことは 分かってる I know the reasons, line by line I’ve been through them so many times But I still turn to tell you things 貴方の影に向かって I’m doing fine, I’m doing fine その先は... [Verse 2] Some details have begun to soften the exact sound of your laugh I tell myself that’s only natural then sit and try to bring it back I can keep from calling your number I can leave the words unsaid It’s that half a second before I think that keeps on giving me away [Semi-Rap / Same Female Voice] I could find a reason keep it light, keep it brief A simple “How’s your week been?” with the rest left underneath But I know how the evening goes one message, then the wait Check the screen, then check the time call it just a little break I could find some small excuse just to get in touch again 返事を待つ夜まで 欲しいわけじゃない I haven’t run out of things to say I’ve just decided where to stop Then I hear myself say, “I miss you” to a room that doesn’t answer back I go back to what I’m doing rinse the cup and dry my hands Say, “It’s getting late,” to no one and switch off the kitchen lamp [Piano Solo / 4 Bars] [Final Chorus] I’m doing fine, I’m doing fine I’ve got tomorrow all planned out I know the reasons, line by line And I know some things won’t change But I still want to see you 少しだけ もう少しだけ... But...I’m doing fine, I’m doing fine 貴方には そう伝えるよ I might ask about the weather let you talk a little while Find a reason not to leave yet just to hear that voice of yours [Outro] I still want to see you …..そんな時もあるけど Thinking like that, I set the alarm for seven I’m doing fine I keep telling myself that as another day goes by
