歌詞

A cabbage butterfly Dances down

And lands on my fingertip

To whisper that summer is over

All I can hear is the roar of the cicadas' call

A chaotic chant of "Go home, go home."

From beyond the old rice path

Your sneakers are running toward me

You're out of breath, and then from your shoulder

You give me a shy, upward glance

I can't say "I love you,"

But in my heart, I love you just the same

I can't say "I love you,"

But in my heart, I love you just the same

The sunlight filtering through the leaves

Gently sways by my ear

Whispering softly to me

I'm waving to the empty pages of a diary

From a long-ago time

A bittersweet and painful melody

With its back to me, summer

Starts walking toward tomorrow

Just as I was about to give up

A dragonfly zipped right past my eyes

I can't say "I love you,"

But in my heart, I love you just the same

I can't say "I love you,"

But in my heart, I love you just the same
