Translation of the song セカンド・ラブ artist Akina Nakamori

恋も二度目なら　少しは上手に

When you're in love for the second time

愛のメッセージ　伝えたい

You should know better how to tell your feelings

あなたのセーター　袖口つまんで

But the best I can do is pull the sleeve

うつむくだけなんて

Of your sweater while looking down

帰りたくない　そばにいたいの

I don't want to leave, let me be with you

そのひとことが　言えない

But I can't even say such few words

抱きあげて　つれてって　時間ごと

Lift me up, take me away along with time

どこかへ運んで　ほしい

I want you to carry me somewhere

せつなさの　スピードは　高まって

My loneliness is growing faster and faster

とまどうばかりの　私

I'm at a loss what to do

恋も二度目なら　少しは器用に

When you're in love for the second time

甘いささやきに　応えたい

You should know better how to react to sweet words

前髪を少し　直すふりをして

But the best I can do is pretend to fix

うつむくだけなんて

My untidy bangs while looking down

舗道にのびた　あなたの影を

Your shadow is sprawling on the pavement

動かぬように　止めたい

I wish I could stop it moving away

抱きあげて　時間ごと　からだごと

Lift me up along with time off the ground

私をさらって　ほしい

I want you to spirit me away

せつなさが　クロスする　さよならに

Loneliness hits me when you say goodbye

追いかけられるの　イヤよ

I hate the echo to haunt my ears

抱きあげて　つれてって　時間ごと

Lift me up, take me away along with time

どこかへ運んで　ほしい

I want you to carry me somewhere

せつなさは　モノローグ　胸の中

So lonely I do a monologue in my mind

とまどうばかりの　私

I'm at a loss what to do
