浜崎あゆみ (Ayumi Hamasaki):Teddy Bear

あなたは昔言いました
目覚めれば枕元には
ステキなプレゼントが
置いてあるよと
髪を撫でながら

相変わらずその背中は
小さく頼りなくて
だけど楽しい話なら
笑い合えていた

それなのに人はどうして
同じような過ち
あと何度繰り返したら
後悔できるの

思い出している
葬ったハズの
いつかの夜

あなたは昔言いました
目覚めれば枕元には
ステキなプレゼントが
置いてあるよと
髪を撫でながら

私は期待に弾む胸
抱えながらも眠りにつきました
やがて訪れる夜明けを
心待ちにして

目覚めた私の枕元
大きなクマのぬいぐるみいました
隣にいるはずのあなたの
姿と引き換えに

あなたは昔言いました
目覚めれば枕元には
ステキなプレゼントが
置いてあるよと
髪を撫でながら...

You once said long ago
while stroking my hair,
"When you wake up, there'll be
a nice present waiting for you
by your pillow."

You weren't always
there for me,
but we could laugh together
at funny stories.

But how can people regret
mistakes that they keep making
over and over again?

I remember now...
that night I thought
I had buried.

You once said, long ago
while stroking my hair,
"When you wake up there'll be
a nice present waiting for you
by your pillow."

I lay sleeping with my arms
crossed around my chest,
looking forward to the morning.

When I woke up, I found
by my pillow a teddy bear...
in place of you.

You once said, long ago
while stroking my hair,
"When you wake up there'll
be a nice present waiting for
you by your pillow."
