Romanized Lyrics

Migite no neiru wa kimi ga nutte
Kikitte janai kara
Chotto komatta kao de
Shikata ga nai tte
Watashi no te wo nigiru

Hontou wa taishite atashi ga nutte mo
Heta de wa nai kedo
Ugokanai you ni
Mou sukoshi dake nante
Fureru riyou ni shite

Sasakureta yubisaki
Busaiku na tsume demo
Soredemo ii ka nante omoeta
Hamidashita migite no neiru ni

Hanarete wakaru nara
Te wo nigitte
Hanaseru toki oshiete
Kimi ni tayotte bakka
Inakunatta
Ima mo kuse de amaeteru

Migite no neiru watashi ga nutta
Kimi ga inai kara
Hitori ni natte kizuita
Kawaku made tte
Konna ni kakaru koto

Hontou wa ano koro kimi ga nutta no wa
Migite dake janakute
Watashi no hibi mo irozuketeta
Hora ne hagareochiteiru

Sasakureta yubisaki
Busaiku na tsume demo
Sore mo kimi nara ii tte itta
Kotoba ga migite wo nurashiteru

Hanarete wakaru nara
Te wo nigitte
Hanaseru toki oshiete
Hana sasu nioi wa kimi ga

Heya wo sukima naku umeru

Mou fuyu ni natte mo

Atatamete kurenai ne
Kimi wa samekitte satte

Watashi dake atatakatta

Sasakureta yubisaki
Busaiku na tsume demo
Soredemo ii ka itsumo yori
Hamidasazu nureteru neiru ni

English Lyrics

My right hand nails, you painted them
Even though it's not my dominant hand
You made a slightly troubled face
And said, "It's okay"
And held my hand

In reality, I could have painted them
Even if I'm not bad at it
But just so I wouldn't move
I used it as an excuse to touch you a little longer

Even if my fingertips are chapped
And my nails are ugly
I thought it was okay
With my right hand nails that were overflowing

If we can understand each other by being apart
Hold my hand
Tell me when we can talk
I relied on you too much
You're gone
And I'm still being spoiled out of habit

I painted my right hand nails
Because you're not here
I realized when I was alone
It takes so long for them to dry

In reality, what you painted back then
Wasn't just my right hand
It colored my days
Look, they're peeling off

Even if my fingertips are chapped
And my nails are ugly
You said that's okay too
Your words are moistening my right hand

If we can understand each other by being apart
Hold my hand
Tell me when we can talk
The pungent smell is you
You're gone
It fills the room without a gap

Even in the winter
You don't hold my hand
And warm me up
You left, cooling down
You're gone
I was the only one who was warm

Even if my fingertips are chapped
And my nails are ugly
It's okay
My nails are painted without overflowing, more than usual

Japanese Lyrics

右手のネイルは君が塗って
利き手じゃないから
ちょっと困ったかおで
仕方がないって
私の手を握る

本当は大して私が塗っても
下手ではないけど
動かないように
もう少しだけなんて
触れる理由にして

ささくれた指先
不細工な爪でも
それでもいいかなんて思えた
はみ出した右手のネイルに

離れて分かるなら
手を握って
話せる時教えて
君に頼ってばっか
いなくなった
今も癖で甘えてる

右手のネイル私が塗った
君がいないから
一人になって気づいた
乾くまでって
こんなにかかること

本当はあの頃君が塗ったのは
右手だけじゃなくて
私の日々も色づけてた
ほらね剥がれ落ちている

ささくれた指先
不細工な爪でも
それも君ならいいって言った
言葉が右手を濡らしてる

離れて分かるなら
手を握って
話せる時教えて
鼻刺す匂いは君が
いなくなった
部屋を隙間なく埋める

もう冬になっても
手を握って
あたためてくれないね
君は冷めきって去って
いなくなった
私だけあたたかった

ささくれた指先
不細工な爪でも
それでもいいか いつもより
はみ出さず塗れてるネイルに
