Konna ni chikaku de (こんなに近くで) by Crystal Kay is the first closing song of Nodame Cantabile the anime series. I got Nodame Cantabile from my coursemate, TzeSieng during the middle of this semester and immediately I was attracted by all of the classical music of it. I got the drama series as well, this time from ShuLi during the end of semester right before exam. Maybe its because I was distracted by all the good classical music as well as the upbeat opening song (Allegro Cantabile by Suemitsu and the Suesmith...very nice as well!!!!) available in this anime series that I forgot all about this song until during the one free day during exam week. And since then it is SO NICE to listen to, that this song is a must have in the playlist whenever I am listening to songs!!! I even downloaded the song again in my PC just to listen to it and leave it there for my younger bro to listen when I am gone. Since this is a nice song, I would like to share it with you all as well!!! You can even sing along since I had provided the lyric as well...
That's Chiaki and Nodame, the main chara of Nodame Cantabile the anime series. VERY FUNNY the interaction between Chiaki and Nodame and OOHHH the music so nice.The closing song, as appeared in Nodame Cantabile. And why there is someone there wearing a puppet suit playing an accordian? Go watch NodameCantabile anime/drama for more details!!!!
And this is Crystal Kay. Don't be surprise because she is AfricanAmerican (Father) and KoreanJapanese (Mother) mix and best of all, she is BILINGUAL with fluent Japanese and English. It also means that she does not suffer from usual Engrish problem that plagued a lot of Japanese celebrities.こんなに近くで。。。
恋が切ないと直ぐ傍で気づいたあのよる
だって他の誰より貴方の事を知っているから
いつもの然リ気ない優しささえ
この胸をしめつけてく
こんなにこんなに近くで見つめても
どうしてどうしてただの友達なの
どんなにどんなに強く思っていても
伝えられない
You don’t understand
I’m so in love with you
元気ないよると貴方から言われた瞬間
涙此処すえ首で寝不足からで言い訳した
一番大切な人に嘘を重ねてく今の私
毎日毎日胸が苦しいから
幾つも幾つも眠れる夜を声
初めて初めて出会ったあの日々また
戻れるのならいいのに
I’m so in love with you
愛していると告げたいいいと
もう二度と笑顔には戻れないかも知れない
けれど友達の侭告げリはないは恋以上
私出来ないから
本当は本当はずっと好きだったの
何時でも何時でも愛し続けてたの
貴方に貴方に届けたいきもちを
青い空へと囁いた
I’m so in love with you
Romanji:
Konna ni Chikaku de...
koi ga setsunai to sugu soba de kizuita ano yoru
datte hoka no dare yori anata no koto wo shitteiru kara
itsumo no sarigenai yasashisa sae
kono mune wo shimetsuketeku
konna ni, konna ni, chikaku de mitsumete mo
doushite, doushite, tada no tomodachi na no
donna ni, donna ni, tsuyoku omotteitemo
tsutaerarenai
You don’t understand
I’m so in love with you
genki nai yoro to anata kara iwareta shunkan
namida koko sue kubi de nebusoku kara de iiwakeshita
ichiban taisetsu na hito ni uso wo kasaneteku ima no watashi
mainichi, mainichi, mune ga kurushii kara
ikutsu mo, ikutsu mo, nemureru yoru wo koe
hajimete, hajimete, deatta ano hibi mata
modoreru no nara ii no ni
I’m so in love with you
aishiteiru to tsugetai ii to
mou nido to egao ni ha modorenai kamoshirenai
keredo tomodachi no mama tsugeri wa nai wa koi ijou
watashi dekinai kara
hontou wa, hontou wa, zutto suki datta no
itsudemo, itsudemo, aishitsuzukete ta no
anata ni, anata ni, todoketai kimochi wo
aoi sora e to sasayaku
I’m so in love with you
English Translation:
I realized that love was painful that night by your side
Because I know you better than anyone else
Your everyday kindness
Makes my heart ache
Just like this, I look at you from up close
But why, why are we only just friends?
No matter how strong my feelings are
I can’t convey it to you
You don’t understand
I’m so in love with you
It was a dull night the moment you said it
The tears that reached the tip of my neck were the reason I couldn’t sleep. (!?)
Right now I’m always lying to my most precious person
Everyday, everyday my heart aches
I’ve gone through so many, many sleepless nights
Ever since the first day we met by chance
If only we could return to that time
I’m so in love with you
It’d be nice to confess and love you
Is it impossible to go back to our smiling faces?
Although remaining as friends and not confessing might be better than love
Because I’m not able to do it anyway
Truly, truly I’ve always loved you
I always, always want to continue loving you
I want to send these feelings to you
I whisper them to the blue sky
I’m so in love with you
