ChoQMay delivers these lines with a warmth that makes the emotions feel immediate and real. The lyrics also hint at the struggle to balance selfish desires with maturity.
Kimi ni mou aitaiI want to see you already
Gaman nante dekinaiI can’t hold back anymore
Suki toka yoku wakaranai kedoI don’t really know if it’s love yet, but
Soredemo kimi ni aitaieven so, I still want to see you.
