The me up until yesterday was crying, crying, but [even still]
忘れさせて下さい あの人が憎いことも
Wasuresasete kudasai ano hito ga nikui koto mo
please make me forget, that I hate that person.

その場所は私がいた 本当は私がいた場所
Sono basho wa watashi ga ita hontou wa watashi ga ita basho
I’m at that place, the place where truly [I belong],
何よりも大切に想ってた それなのに
Nani yori mo taisetsu ni omotteta sore na no ni
[and] I believed that nothing was more important than that, even so…
祝福の拍手が今 2人を輝かせていく
Shukufuku no hakushu ga ima futari wo kagayakaseteiku
Now, the blessing’s applause makes the couple shine.
恋人と呼んでいたあの人が 幸せそうに笑ってる
Koibito to yondeita ano hito ga shiawasesou ni waratteru
That person who [you] called [your] lover is smiling happily.

You are my memories...........
